Oni 鬼 by In Dreams of Reality Lyrics

Captivated
I lied awake
Soaked by cold sweat

So static
Legs won‘t move and
My arms were frozen

All of sudden
All I felt was fear
A frigid grip
The cold in my heart
And the yokai claws embraced me

Flee
Run
I felt the grip so just

Flee
Run
I saw its cold stare
So I tried to stand
Up on my feet fight the beast
But it's like a battle between me and an immortal being

[Chorus]
For years they fight me
These static tendencies
Trying to take the rest of me
Like a vermin on the outside

For years they fight me
I tried to run away but how can I with feet like lead
Will I ever walk again someday

[Strophe 2]
Paralysed
I lied awake
Few days ago
I felt these claws approach me once again

All of sudden
All I felt was hate
And the ice started to melt

There was hope in my heart
But the yokai claws reached out again
Flee
Run
I felt the beast still I

Flee
Run
Get away from me

[Chorus]
For years they fight me
These static tendencies
Trying to take the rest of me
Like a vermin on the outside

For years they fight me
I tried to run away but how can I with feet like lead
Will I ever walk again someday

I see the world in a different way now
That I can feel and move my feet
I have to see things in different angles
I forever fight the undertow
No retreat

Even though the weight continues
I still believe there is a chance for me
They try to shackle me every day
But I believe I can break these chains
And the vermin on the outside

[Chorus]
For years they fight me
I tried to run away but how could I with feet like lead
And I may walk again someday

For years they fight me

And i may walk again someday
