A Phantom Pain

I'm searching for a whole new beginning
An endless void
This notion that I sense within me
You're still by my side

Oh, I feel your presence
You'll never leave here
But if I reach out there to hold you
Every part that's real disappears

As I become more present now
I can't see through the pain
A hollow cut through my veins
(The phantom takes his toll)

The days that just keep on coming
The stain that they leave
I wish I could break this casket
But I'm left here to grieve
I'm in a world of my own design

As I become more present now
I can't see through the pain
A hollow cut through my veins
(The shadows take their toll)

And did you leave me anything?
You're the phantom of my past
Do you expect me to last, this way?
