I didn't quite know the extent of the darkness
That dwelled beneath the eyes of a man
Who shined as bright in a room at his sharpest
As anyone I could think of to tell
A confident man who appeared in his laughter
To resemble a demeanour of well
But look through the mist and the solar's eclipsed
The redeemer's dismissed
A facade that he sells
I wish I was more intuitive
But I was blinded by smoke at the clues I missed
I was confided in those I wouldn't rue to miss
I wouldn't know in the weeks I was losing him
Your mind was infiltrated
Die, you demons wasted time
That we can't play back
Pause those days
Rewind them and I'll say
Why did your mind have to wonder in the dark
Why did your mind have such consequences for
Why did your mind have to wonder in the dark
Why the divide between us
Harboured by the love
Aaah', aaah', aah'
You was the happiest man in the room
As everyone thought
But you was consumed
There was a war that was pulling your mind
Into past thoughts that often abused
A man who was there for anyone
But struggled to be there for yourself
Neglecting the part where the helper gets help
Before others begin to excel
Depression from adolescence
But you grew up as a man that could test it
Fighting with courage and ample aggression
But summer then opened its heavens
Your mind is infiltrated
Die, you demons wasted time
That we can't play back
Ooooh'
Mmmm'
Why did your mind have to wonder in the dark
Why did your mind have such consequences for
Why did your mind have to wonder in the dark
Aaaah'
Ooooh'
Ooooh'
