    Story Behind the Song
    This is one of our favorite songs. Adam and Dave Thomas wrote the music together and dave fleshed out the details later on. Dave wrote the lyrics one night when he couldn't sleep.
    It was very hard to record, but this was the song we wanted to record the most. The more dificult parts had to be learned because we had never practiced those parts before recording them.
    Dave finished up the song after Adam left on his mission.

    Lyrics
    Walking in the darkness
    Stumbling through my dreams
    Crowded with common strangers
    Voices raised in screams

    A face that I see in the night
    Blinded by his sight
    So dead
    Whispers I hear in my room
    Haunted by their gloom
    Are they in my head?

    Sorrow fills my senses
    Torment in his plea
    Aching to be free now
    Question. He stares at me

    The face that I fear in the night
    Blinding my sight
    So dead
    Whispers I hear in my bed
    Voices of the dead
    Are they in my head?

    Stranger I meet in the dark
    The ghost in my heart
    So cold
    Seems like I've seen him before
    Should I just Ignore
    Or is he the

    Face I see in the night
    Blinded by his sight
    So dead
    Whispers I hear in my room
    Haunted by his gloom
    Is he in my head?
    Better left unsaid.
