lyrics

Completion and denial have left me in pieces
The despair was the decay of the hope and all my wishes
Crawling back from this dark nightmare, I take down this mask of stone
I’m awaking, I no longer wish to lie here alone.

Lying dormant all this time, I’ve watched the seasons passing
With my eyes so tired of sleepless nights; the darkness is breathtaking
Closed inside a memory and condemned to live it over and over
Feeling like a shadow once forsaken standing next to never…

Completion and denial have left me in pieces
The despair was the decay of the hope and all my wishes
Crawling back from this dark nightmare, I take down this mask of stone
I’m awaking, I no longer wish to lie here alone.

Surrogate of my old self that forgot to close the curtain
The unfolded story of the past, left without an ending
Crumbled, here I stand and try to fight my darkest fears
I’ve been sleeping much too long, my eyes lay no tears.

And I’ve been lost long ago, I had no desire
I’ve been strolling on and on through my own mind’s fire

Now I keep me on this path and never look behind me
My own soul is torn apart and my eyes are the way to release me…
Set me free..
