lyrics

CHORUS:
I close my eyes, and fall asleep for one last time
In a land beyond twilight
I control the future of the world
As I sit on my throne,
Let my defiance be known!

Frozen in a state of self denial
Crying out for sympathy
Thinking this could be the end of our humanity
Our hopes and our dreams

CHORUS

My belief is that my own defiance
Is the way to take control
Charismatic and benign, my demons seem to be
But I know what they mean

And now I've fallen, through space and time
Is this my conscience? Is this divine?

CHORUS

SOLOS

So now the battle is over and done
And I break free from my own mind
In a land beyond twilight
I, drove out the demons in my head
Now I sit on my throne, let my defiance be known!

CHORUS

CHORUS:
Open my eyes, and I'm awake for one last time
In a land without twilight
I set free the demons of this world
As I sit on my throne, let my defiance be known.
