Shadow (of the Colossus) Lyrics

Drawn and quartered by her laws of gravity I scream into the night
And hear my voice echo back
And here it comes again like a wave of lead pressed on my chest
Pinning my heart between my spine and my ribcage

Pushing the air from my lungs, I can't inhale
Breath only goes out and it feels like I'm drowning

When did it begin and will it end, will i escape this box I've called home
And see what's beyond this war-torn beach
Is there anything still beautiful or was it all destroyed by the moon and her pawns

These thoughts run through my brain like scattered ants
Biting and stinging, confusing the senses
Will it ever be safe to peek my head up from this tiny walled prison
Or are the waves ebbing again to crash down upon me

The waves come crashing down

These ebbing waves are slaves to her command
Waiting for the word to come crashing again
In my ears, in my heart, in my head

Drawn by her pull, I scream into the night and hear my voice echo back
Ghosts of the dead mock my misery, make a fool of me
