Name: Sanctuary
Duration: P00H04M40S
Description: The Seraphim recalls how she ended up chained underground. That man was outside her window... on the 22nd floor. She couldn't understand much, but she could make out a few words like "save", and "sanctuary". She tried to call for help, but that seemed to anger the man. Before she knew it, she was trapped. He keeps muttering "I saved her, I saved her..."

lyrics

Trying to sleep
Hearing taps upon my window
I shouldn't be alarmed
I live alone on the 22nd floor

Did I remember to check that I locked the door
After running upstairs when I thought that I saw him
I'm so paranoid, worried if I forgot
If I lost the spare key after I changed the locks

Are you forgetting what you had said to me
I said "hang on a moment
I'm not sure that I can see you again
After what had went over"
The things that you did
I need to get far away from
You

Don't be scared, I'm simply here to harm you
Be afraid, there's no way I could hurt you
Come with me, we'll hide in sanctuary
What do you mean you'll stay, you have no choices any more

Just keep your head up high
Reach out and touch the sky
We'll watch the stars at night
We all have to fade
Dance upon your grave
As you feel your final rain

I loved you
But you started crying out
For someone to save you
Your heroes here
You found him
It's me, the one who'll save you

Don't be scared, I'm simply here to harm you
Be afraid, there's no way I could hurt you
Come with me, we'll hide in sanctuary
What do you mean you'll stay, you have no choices any more

Take a walk with me and you will see the path laid out before you
You saw the signs and let your spirit die
I saved you in end

Favorite track, you're kidding, right? I can't pick a fave when every goddamn tune is stronger in some way or another than the one before it. 1st lemme say I'm a fan of Liam's other bands & I LOVE Freedom Of Fear. Now, about those vocals: God. DAMN! Mitch is sick! I texted my wife about this so she could listen on Spotify & she was impressed. Vocals are outstanding & never boring. The only weak point is the final 3 1/4 mins of the last song. It just has an overall generic & derivative feel. VenoMal1c3
