At The Back Of Beyond

Your rigid eyes stare into gloom,

I'm pouring out my grief to you...

Should I escape?

Nothing but silence where I stand,

Just a slight light at the end to pretend

I could escape.

White walls coming closer and closer,

Absorb my words without response.

I am your guide out of the dark

At the back of beyond

I hear your cries although they're gone.

Strain to scream my heart to you,

From my lips no sound escapes,

Just light from the moon... a twilit cry...

Trying to pick the better side

Stay in darkness, chase the light,

Am I wrong, or am I right?

Painful sun is touching your face,

A single ray may recall you to life.

I am your guide out of the dark

At the back of beyond

I hear your cries although they're gone.

Through the night, out of the dawn

I am by your side, but you are still alone.

I am your guide out of the dark

At the back of beyond

I hear your cries although they're gone.

Through the night, out of the dawn

I am by your side, but you are still alone.
