Lyrics

From this dream I cannot wake My own thoughts are seeming fake Disillusion is sinking in, alien to my own skin What is the purpose of this goal Another end I can't control Drifting closer to insanity A perfect future I will never see Maybe I die, or at least I try Come what may, sweep me away Take me once more into the fray Pain is all that's left to feel Any solace just seems unreal Fading away I will not last Just like the sands of the hourglass The empty black is swallowing Even numb I feel the sting The bitter truth that fate will bring This endless void of suffering It took resolve to make it through From years of pain I only grew Shedding off this grip of death Taking hold of what was left But now the dirt beneath my feet It blows away like a falling leaf A subtle sign of the coming end One final breath to comprehend Deep within the mirror's lie The rotting soul that dwells inside (dwells inside) A life that means just killing time I waste away as I wait to die As I wait to die... I wait to die The final price (I am) I am out of time (Solo) We stand at the end of it all Face to face with our downfall Who can say if we deserve it or not Either way, is this the karma we wrought? Was it all for naught? (all for naught) After how hard we fought?
