|
In a world where life now slumbers |
|
To a lullaby without a sound |
|
Roads once leading to brighter futures |
|
Now all lead us further down |
|
In a world that tears apart |
|
Even the strongest and the best |
|
What hope can there be |
|
...for the rest? |
|
We were dreaming in the darkness |
|
When we fell into the light |
|
Ethereal and corrupting |
|
It burned anew our sight |
|
Now bound for absolution |
|
Something we will never find |
|
Our hearts the shape of shadows |
|
Burning with scars aligned |
|
"Lay the burden finally down |
|
and let your fears cave-in |
|
Lay your burden finally down |
|
and embrace the newfound sin" |
|
Once dreaming in the darkness |
|
We fell into the light |
|
Violent and unyielding |
|
It tore away our sight |
|
Yet still we search for something |
|
Something we can never find |
|
Our dreams have long since withered |
|
Along with our scars aligned... |
