I've been away too long
The sun was blinding
Avenging the wrongs
And the sound of silence within

I've got a permanent scar that was made by my hand
I've got a photograph, can't remember that face
I've got eyes wide shut, predisposed to that pain
I'm just a prototype, I'm Abel and Cain

I've been away too long
From darkness rising
Searching where I belong
In battle with voices within

And still I'm trying
I'm trying

Hidden faces light
When the moon shines through the veil of spite
Tonight

As you're coming into sight
And all that you see is in black and white
Tonight

Hello
But I saw you crying
Let go
What are you hiding?

Buried masks collide
And emotions are all paralyzed tonight
Tonight

As you crumble to win this fight
Waiting for all sparks to reignite
Tonight

Hello
But I saw you crying
Let go
What are you hiding?
Hello
But I saw you crying
Let go
I'm not your silver lining

Hidden faces light
When the moon shines through the veil of spite
Tonight

As you're coming into sight
And all that you see is in black and white
Tonight

Hello
But I saw you crying
Let go
What are you hiding?

Buried masks collide
And emotions are all paralyzed tonight
Tonight

As you crumble to win this fight
Waiting for all sparks to reignite
Tonight

Hello
But I saw you crying
Let go
What are you hiding?
Hello
But I saw you crying
Let go
I'm not your silver lining

We almost made it
Without air in our lungs
Hopeful and jaded
Speaking different tongues

We almost made it
Taking it as it comes
All senses abraded
Something died in my arms

We almost made it
Thoughts were safe from the harms
All senses degraded
Something died in my arms

Here it comes

Image comes to my head
Tries to hurt me again

We almost made it
With blindfold on my eyes
All senses sedated
Something died in my arms

Here it comes

Image comes to my head
Tries to hurt me again

When you discover yourself
Through struggle alone
When all give and take
Vaporizes the soul

When you become overwhelmed
To carry the load
For many miles of travel
Far away on your own

And in case you forget don't call my name
You better believe it, some things won't kill the pain
And in case you forget don't call my name
You better believe it, some things will not remain

When you discover yourself
Restrained from the show
When all your mistakes
Have awaken us both

When you become overwhelmed
Just remember the flow
And how many miles you've travelled
Far away from our home

It's the beginning of the end
In now evaporating love

When I felt the tide is turning
Before the coming dawn
I've glanced the waves
With no need to keep me going on

I saw the warning signs
Before the coming storm
And all tainted wisdom
Disappears when I'm gone

It's the beginning of the end
In now evaporating love

Yet again
In the hollow
Late at night
How does it feel?

And I'm moving
I still don't understand / recognize
Any feeling
Anymore

Time to wake up
Time to reinvent
How to feel alive

When remnants awaken
It's time to hear them say
Say goodbye

Time to wake up
Refill new destiny
Through this

Drifting apart
But now I know it
It was untrue
For me 'cause of you

In sunshine we try
When rain comes we hide
Through the cold and daylight
Through the heat and the night

In sunshine we try
When rain comes we hide
Through the blackest of life
Through the whitest of lies

This was providence.

Sleep close to me
Until the dawn

Breath slowly with me
Until I'm gone

Come closer
Into my arms
And the candlelight stops fading

Burn closer
Right through my eyes
And the candlelight stops fading

You keep it from fading
