I Am The Keeper

Lyrics

Beneath the stone, beneath the cold
The dead repeat the lives they've sold
Bound to every memory they've burned
Chasing every exit never earned

The wolves return
The wolves replay
Until the thread of every night
Begins to fray

I am the keeper of the wrong direction
I call your name down every corridor
I am the keeper of your misdirection
The maze was built for you — and nothing more

You walked past the answer
Maybe three times. Maybe four
Does it matter anymore?

The sleeper feeds the darkness that remains
The nightmare lives inside the ones who stayed
Until the time dissolves into the floor
And the screaming finds the one it's looking for

The truth breaks through
But breaks too late
The only voice that leads you out
Is the one that made you stay

I am the keeper of the wrong direction
I call your name down every corridor
I am the keeper of your misdirection
The maze was built for you — and nothing more

Wrong direction
Wrong direction
You passed the answer
Over and over

Don't ask for help
Don't look for light
I'm the only sound
Left in your night

I am the keeper of the wrong direction
I call your name down every corridor
I am the keeper of your misdirection
The maze was built for you — and nothing more

The darkness screams
And I never planned to let you leave
