[Intro] I don't want to know, I shut it down That's my freedom, as long as you're around All that I once held as true Always brings me back to you You may think I should have known No one here but not alone Darkness feeds upon my soul From grief I'll rise From grief I stole [Verse 1] When I have a moment of pure delight As if I am pulling the wrong to right I can take this for granted but I'm way too old In search for the answers, the trail went cold [Chorus] While I'm alive, I won't let them near us I stand by your side Feeding the hounds of existence The hounds of existence [Verse 2] Nothing is hollow, it's lack of light We live among time thieves in a scarlet night [Chorus] While I'm alive, I won't let them near us I stand by your side Feeding the hounds of existence The hounds of existence While I'm alive, I won't let them near us I stand by your side Feeding the hounds of existence The hounds of existence [Bridge 1] While I'm alive, I won't let them near While I'm alive, feeding the hounds that are hidden Between the restrained and forbidden We hold on to all that is pure When everything's here but a cure Everything's here but stay hidden Between the restrained and forbidden We hold on to all that is pure When everything's here but a cure Everything's here but a cure [Bridge 2] Swim in cold waters Sink like a stone Swim in cold waters Carry on At the end of the world We'll find a shore We'll find a shore [Chorus] While I'm alive, I won't let them near us I stand by your side Feeding the hounds of existence The hounds of existence [Outro] Hidden Forbidden All that is pure Pure Hidden Between the restrained and forbidden We hold on to all that is pure When everything's here but a cure Everything's here but a Cure
