[Verse 1]
Countless horrors inside my head
Secrets of my mind
The hidden truths if left unsaid
Would leave us deaf and blind
In the dead of night, the spirit comes
To creep into my soul
Through pain, want, desire and need
And then by sheer control
So few desires that I feel
But still I'm left with want
The fantasies, sickening dreams
That always come to
Question all my truths denied
And crawl into my soul
The knowledge sought and gained tonight
Demands a heavy toll

[Chorus]
Wisdoms that are paid in blood
The secrets of mankind
Through sacrifice and destiny
But we're still left behind
It seems the end will never come
We suffer every day
And those that came before us prove
It's always been this way

[Bridge]
Our world is a lie
The word does not exist
Chaos and oblivion
Our way of life

[Guitar solo 1: Gonzalez]
[Guitar solo 2: Creamer]

[Chorus]
Wisdoms that are paid in blood
The secrets of mankind
Through sacrifice and destiny
But we're still left behind
It seems the end will never come
We suffer every day
And those that came before us prove
It's always been this way

[Verse 2]
Countless horrors inside my head
Secrets of my mind
The hidden truths if left unsaid
Would leave us deaf and blind
In the dead of night, the spirit comes
To creep into my soul
Through pain and want, desire and need
And then by sheer control
So few desires that I feel
But still I'm left with want
The fantasies sickening dreams
That always come
To question all my truths denied
And crawl into my soul
The knowledge sought and gained tonight
Demands a heavy toll
