[Verse 1]
It's midnight in my head, the beast is waking slow
A familiar demon whispers things I shouldn't know
He holds a mirror to me, I see a pale and hollow ghost
I'm running through the hallways of a mansion with no end
The doors slam shut behind me, I'm naked and condemned
I feel his cold claws tracing down my spine
[Chorus]
And I found a map to cities made of fog
Abandoned stations where the trains no longer call
But in every refuge, I still see his face
He took away my memories, burned every page
I leave behind the laughter and the love I used to know
Fading photographs and promises in pieces on the floor
[Verse 2]
And what if I just stopped now? What if I turned to fight?
This demon's just a shadow, a fear I can't outrun tonight
These places that don't exist, they're just my ruined heart
I'm running through the hallways of a mansion with no end
The doors slam shut behind me, I'm naked and condemned
I feel his cold claws tracing down my spine
[Chorus]
And I found a map to cities made of fog
Abandoned stations where the trains no longer call
But in every refuge, I still see his face
He took away my memories, burned every page
I leave behind the laughter and the love I used to know
Fading photographs and promises in pieces on the floor
[Bridge]
Maybe the beast is just my own reflection staring back
Maybe the mansion's walls are built from everything I lack
Maybe the fog, the empty trains, the gardens in the sky
Are just the places where my broken spirit learned to hide
[Chorus]
And I found a map to cities made of fog
Abandoned stations where the trains no longer call
But in every refuge, I still see his face
He took away my memories, burned every page
I leave behind the laughter and the love I used to know
Fading photographs and promises in pieces on the floor
[Outro]
It's midnight in my head, the beast is waking slow
A familiar demon whispers things I shouldn't know
But maybe if I face him, maybe if I stay
The fog will lift, the trains will run, and I will find my way
