Lord Of An Empty Place Lyrics - Eldritch

I'm here in 

I'm living 

I'm dreaming 

But you can't see me at all 

I'm walking close to the wall 

I'm here in 

My breathing is my screaming 

A half concealed look's my boldest 

Approach to you 

I talk barely 

I wake up early 

8 hours fairly 

with spiders of silent pain 

weaving cold webs in my brain 

I hold on still I long 

For the dusk to come 

Like after the longest war 

A knight on this way home 

Lord of an empty place 

Reign of one alone 

Sham is the only home 

I'm feeling friendly 

I'm feeling my own 

Lord of an empty place 

Reign of chill and ghosts 

Stage with the curtain down 

Where I play the main role 

But no one's there to applaud 

I've grown old 

Thought my world's so cold 

Since i fold myself round na icy core 

I don't know what I'm living for 

If only I'd showed you 

How much I loved you 

I'd be lord in real world too 

A king for the time with you 

Lord of an empty place 

Reign of one alone 

Sham is the only home 

I'm feeling friendly 

I'm feeling my own 

Lord of an empty place 

Reign of chill and ghosts 

Stage with the curtain down 

Where I play the main role 

But no one's there to applaud 

Take a bow, a roaring crowd 

Walls come crashing down 

Raise your eyes 

And find you're just all alone 

Lord of an empty place 

Reign of one alone 

Open or closed it be 

No one at the window 

No one knocking at the door 

Lord of an empty place 

Reign of chill and ghosts 

Stage with the curtain down 

Where I play the main role 

But no one's there to applaud
