Lyrics by Mark Xenophontos 

------------------------

I wasn't born aware, had to open my eyes
Nobody told me what to believe
Had to find it out for myself
Asking questions, down on my knees
Praying for truth to set me free
Begging for truth to set me free

Then I saw past the rainbow
All the shame behind the colors
All the darkness they cover

You live next door to the devil!
How are you supposed to be okay?
Step outside, see corruption in every form!
How the hell are you okay?
How are you okay?

Close your eyes, dream the nightmare
At least the demons look prettier there
But I won't bow to this madness
I'm standing tall, unashamed
Won't play along with the lies they sell

I'd rather walk through fire than live in this hell
I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees
I've seen behind the curtain
Watched the lies become the truth
I won't be their puppet
I won't be used

You live next door to the devil!
How are you supposed to be okay?
Step outside, see corruption in every form!
How the hell are you okay?
How are you okay?

Unashamed!
I'm ready to lose it all!
Unashamed!
For the One who gave everything!
Everything!

You promise life when all I see is death
Give me peace when my world's a wreck
In the chaos, You're my anchor
In the darkness, You're my light

The world gets darker (but I shine brighter)
So I run to You
The world gets darker (but I shine brighter)
I run to You!
I run to You!

The world gets darker, but I shine brighter!
Better run to You 'cause You're all I've got now!
The world gets darker, but I shine brighter!
Better run to You 'cause You're all I've got now!

You're all I've got now
All I've got now
You're all I've got!
(All I've got!)
You're the only way out!

Unashamed

[Verse 1]
I saw you standing there across the haze,
One look and my reason burned away.
It felt like drowning — no breath to take,
Just a single glance, and my walls gave way.

[Pre-Chorus 1]
One look, and I’m falling into the void,
(Trapped inside this aching noise)

[Chorus 1]
First glance and I’m sinking, can’t break free,
A spark became the fire consuming me.
I don’t even know your name, but you’re in my mind,
All it took was one glance — now you’re all I find.
(First glance...)

[Verse 2]
Your face cuts through the crowd like a violent dream,
Every thought I have’s pulled into the stream.
In a room full of voices, I only hear yours,
Is this connection real, or am I losing control?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
One look, and I’m drowning in the spiral down,
(Can’t escape, can’t make a sound)

[Chorus 2]
First glance and I’m sinking, can’t break free,
A curse disguised as something meant for me.
I don’t even know your name, but you own my thoughts,
All it took was one glance — now I’m lost in what you’re not.
(First glance...)

[Bridge / Breakdown]
What if I’m the darkness you’ll never see?
I’d cross this room to reach you...
But you’d just run from me!
Every heartbeat feeds this obsession I can’t control,
It’s killing me slowly — but I can’t let you go!

I’m losing myself in your shadow,
You don’t even know my name,
But I see you everywhere I go,
And I’ll never be the same!

[Final Chorus]
First glance and I’m drowning, can’t believe it’s real,
A poison wrapped in something I needed to feel.
I’ll never know your name, but you’re carved in my brain,
All it took was one glance — now I’m chained to the pain,
And I’d do it all again.
(Chained to the pain...)
(All from first glance...)

[Outro]
Maybe it’s madness... maybe it’s fate,
But I can’t escape this feeling — it’s too late.
One look was all it took, now I can’t break free...
It all began the moment you looked at me.
