(Korpela)
In the dark I see things
That no one else sees
If I had anything to believe in
I'd pray for sanity on my knees
If I lose my focus
Even for a second
The voices will take me
To another place
CHORUS
Light of reason, Will o' the Wisp
Run from thoughts that madness whispers
The doors I'd barred creak ajar
Chilling touch as madness darkens the path
Madness...
Shaking with fear
Terror grips my soul
And piece by piece I'm coming apart
Yet it makes me feel more whole
The light becomes more frightening
Than anything in the dark
And as eerie thoughts invade my mind
A smile creeps on my face
Oh, let it be so
Oh, let this not be real
CHORUS
Light of reason, Will o' the Wisp
Hear the thoughts that madness whispers
The doors I'd barred creak ajar
Calming touch as madness darkens the light
Light of reason
Just a Will o' the Wisp
Reason runs
The coward, it runs away
The light has died
The darkness whispers to me its name
Memories fled
Scattered in the windless void
Chasing the light
I did stray from the path
Now I couldn't find my way back
Even if I cared to try
Sense of self
A molten stream I cannot catch
Shards of thought
Swirling mists, they're not of words
Fear not the unknown
Nothing will ever be known again
Whisper to a scream
Don't know or care if it's my own
