VNV Nation...'Left Behind'
So afraid to open your eyes
You Know too well
That which awaits you
Something undefined
There in the halflight
The demon without
The demon inside
To plague and torment you
Feeling so sure
Feeling so certain that
Something is wrong
Everyone's gone and
You have been left behind
Everyone left the demon inside
Do you still hear their laughter?
So hard to describe
You never forget the
Faces that haunt you
Awake or asleep
I know you can't tell
Unable to sleep
Unable to fight
Unwilling to wake
To open your eyes
To face your oppressor
Still you go on
Convinced it will end
Can you remember
A day when it was not like this?
Unsure of yourself
Unsure of your thoughts
Unable to know
If what you think is right or wrong
Still you go on
Convinced it will end
Like someone pushes
A blade through your mind
There on the edge where
No one will find you
Still hearing them laugh
Is there no light at the end for you?
Why is everything wrong?
Here I am
Here I am
With these words
Trying to say
Something I can't
Something I can't tell you
Nothing is wrong
The demons, they have left you
You were not left behind
You were not left behind
So open your eyes
So open your eyes
Unable to sleep
Unable to fight
Unwilling to wake
Please open your eyes
For here I stand
Unable to tell you what
I'm trying to say
Nothing is wrong
Please open your eyes
Nothing is wrong
You were not left behind

I'm suffocating in what's become of me...
The rancid remains of what I used to be
