[lyrics by K. Nardi/except*]
|
|
Twisting the images
|
Watching them grow
|
Into what they are not
|
Forget we forgot as they fed on what's real
|
|
The path I fell onto
|
Of tears wades through
|
Await the demise
|
In sorry disguise from the things that I feel
|
|
Time does not exist
|
The days as thin as mist
|
Deep within my eyes
|
There is a heart that died long ago
|
|
What is it going to take to get through to you?
|
To open your fear-blinded eyes?
|
Because there was this fear that would tear at me
|
That by our own hands we would fall
|
|
These clouds can pass no light
|
Just silhouettes of tired life
|
Sorrow begging, why?, for answers miles and miles from the truth
|
|
Endurance and patience lost
|
From fighting this holocaust
|
Destroying within and eating its way from the core
|
|
Time does not exist
|
These days are meaningless
|
Deep within my eyes
|
There is a heart that died long ago
|
|
What is it going to take to get through to you?
|
To open your fear-blinded eyes?
|
Because there was this fear that would tear at me
|
That by our own hands we would fall
|
|
*Forgive this heart
|
Long stagnant with its blood
|
For it is here, within my suffering
|
That these, the altars of the soul have creaked
|
Suffering Hour...
|
Suffering Hour...
|
Suffering Hour...
|
My darkest hour is now
|
|
What is it going to take to get through to you?
|
To open your fear-blinded eyes?
|
Because there was this fear that would tear at me
|
That by our own hands we would fall
|
|
