Through dark and light I fight to be
So close
Shadows and lies mask you from me
So close
Bathe my skin, the darkness within
So close
The war of our lives no one can win

The missing piece I yearn to find
So close
Please clear the anguish from my mind
So close
But when the truth of you comes clear
So close
I wish my life had never come here
So close

Through dark and light I fight to be
So close
Shadows and lies mask you from me

I like this a lot. Such a great atmosphere, with the repeated motifs and just the general sense of unease. I particularly like the segment where the vocals first come in. And the way you've highlighted how people lie with their faces. (Also Eva Green's face in general!! ♥)

It is a really gorgeous vid :)
