Dead Elysium

Black is the heart to the seeds of suffering Dark is the light that burns Faint is the sound that makes me whole Here in the dark of night I'm running to The distant signals that are left me to hope Shifting sands forever, our lives are free no more Hide away, dead Elysium The end of days I won't believe, I'll fall away We are the last, but not the only ones Lost divided souls living a lie in a dead Elysium Dead Elysium Send me off to sleep let me drift away Into the light that burns as the silence makes me whole Cold are the years to the memories of my youth Distant are the signals leading home Shifting sands forever, our lives are free no more Hide away, dead Elysium The end of days I won't believe, I'll fall away We are the last, but not the only ones Lost divided souls living a lie in a dead Elysium We are the last, we are the fallen We are the dark, we welcome the light We were the lost, we were forsaken We were the dark, we brought back the light Shifting sands forever, our lives are free no more Hide away, dead Elysium The end of days I won't believe, I'll fall away Hide away, dead Elysium The end of days I won't believe, I'll fall away We are the last, but not the only ones Lost divided souls living a lie in a dead Elysium Dead Elysium In a dead Elysium In a dead Elysium In a dead Elysium

White was the day when I waved goodbye I remember it well When night closed in there were shadows all around Dark were the years I was lost then found I remember it well When I reached for help there was silence all around Out in the world, the walls were closing in Time was running, I was changing So I took a look inside I felt the great divide hold on In a world of fear that's giving into lies When the days of age have gone When the years of age have won I won't fear a world that's giving in to lies Here I am with another day over I saw the grey clouds turning black When the dark closes in there will be shadows all around Nobody is daring to dream alone Nobody is breathing life Out in the world, the walls were closing in Time was running, I was changing So I took a look inside I felt the great divide hold on In a world of fear that's giving into lies When the days of age have gone When the years of age have won I won't fear a world that's giving in to lies I feel the bridges burn I feel them burn in me No one is breathing life Nobody's getting out alive Out in the world, the walls were closing in Time was running, I was changing So I took a look inside I felt the great divide hold on In a world of fear that's giving into lies If I take a look inside, if I feel the great divide hold on In a world of fear that's giving into lies When the days of age have gone When the years of age have won I won't fear a world that's giving in to lies I won't fear

Is this how it ends, deep inside your life of misery? Is this how it feels when your time is all alone? Is this how it ends? Embrace your lies and mystery Is this how it ends? Is this how it ends? Is this how it ends, in your hollow world? I, embraced you like my own, you abandoned me Your shattered, jaded lies, your reality You broke the bond, broke the ties, broke the family You see me as evil, yet you bleed the poison Lie you will, but your lies will be silenced Feed on your fire alone and burn Now your end of days have come, I finally understand Within your web of lies I am no more, no Now the end of us is done, I finally make my stand Within the web of life you are no more - no more Is this how it ends, when you lie in your thorns of yesterday? Is this how it ends as you feed off the carrion? You're feeding and dying I, embraced you like my own, you abandoned me Your shattered, jaded lies, your reality You broke the bond, broke the ties, broke the family You see me as evil, yet you bleed the poison Now your end of days have come, I finally understand Within your web of lies I am no more, no Now the end of us is done, I finally make my stand Within the web of life you are no more - no more In this space, you will find silence Living a lie, in your blackened hole Within this life, you'll be forgotten I've known the truth, we've known all along I, embraced you like my own, you abandoned me Your shattered, jaded lies, your reality You broke the bond, broke the ties, broke the family You see me as evil, yet you bleed the poison Now your end of days have come, I finally understand Within your web of lies I am no more, no Now the end of us is done, I finally make my stand Within the web of life you are no more - no more

So low I hold my head, I'm praying for every breath I can feel I'm losing ground I read between the lines, I saw life in black and white I was lost in time I should have seen the signs, I should have taken the long road I should have reached for higher ground I could have changed my mind, I could have lied that I'm feeling fine As I step to the edge I could make believe or I could take the fall I could give up, give in or throw it all away I could make believe or I could take the fall I could give up, give in or throw it all I'm too high above my head, I'm too late to second guess I can feel I'm losing ground If this pain is silver lining, I don't want to live this way I'll watch it burn away I should have seen the signs, I should have taken the long road I should have reached for higher ground I could have changed my mind, I could have lied that I'm feeling fine As I step to the edge I could make believe or I could take the fall I could give up, give in or throw it all away I could make believe or I could take the fall I could give up, give in or throw it all I could make believe or I could take the fall I could give up, give in or throw it all away I could make believe or I could take the fall I could give up, give in or throw it all away Throw it all away Can't give up, give in Won't give up, give in Can't give up, give in Won't give up, give in

Scatter the ashes of your mind The weight of life is endless You've seen the darkness turn to light Don't fear the unknown stranded your pain is blinded The walls of doubt are breaking These thorns of hurt are failing you Don't fear the unknown Free the fire within me Free the fire within you Free is the soul within me Free is the soul, the soul within you too Free in your blind eyes did you find The path of strength to walk on The past of hurt is failing you Don't fear the unknown Free the fire within me Free the fire within you Free the soul within me I'll free the soul, the soul within you too Free your fire within me Free the fire within you Free your soul within me Free your soul within you Free your fire within me Free your fire within you Free your soul within me Free your soul within you Free your mind

Iin the ocean of hate you find A brand new saviour Someone you believe, someone free to lead? Cry your tears of joy, in your sea of hate You think the lies will change the whole world over Silenced to die as your truth decays Enslaved to a new machine I have been cornered in my mind In uncertainty Am I the stain upon your mind? Who do I believe? I can't stand this state of lies - that's upon another life It's within your narrow mind Recreate the impossible Impossible As above so there is below We create a world and destroy it all Find me another universe Are we denied to see The dream is over This dream is over I have been cornered in my mind In uncertainty Am I the stain upon your mind? Who do I believe? I can't stand this state of lies - that's upon another life It's within your narrow mind Recreate the impossible In my dreams Do you see, you deny to see? All I see is blue I dare to feel what you cannot feel I have been cornered in my mind In uncertainty Am I the stain upon your mind? Who do I believe? I can't stand this state of lies - that's upon another life It's within your narrow mind Recreate the impossible Impossible Recreate it Impossible Recreate it

Close my eyes so I can live another day dream There's no need for fighting a war Open my life and colour my world These scars will heal Take your sorrow Within me, within all that I am You thought you broke it all You thought to run from all So weave your sorrow and leave me alone So weave your sorrow and leave me alone Yeah set your sorrow free and leave me alone So long to emptiness, isolate the pain Let me breathe So long to empty words Open is my life, open is my world These scars will heal Take your sorrow Within me, within all that I am You thought you broke it all You thought to run from all So weave your sorrow and leave me alone So weave your sorrow and leave me alone Yeah set your sorrow free and leave me alone

Taken away blinded and bleeding Dying within this ocean The words you broke had opened The scars within me More than a life you now have broken Poison am I? Poisoned in lies Fate drives an endless fire, that burns inside me You never let me go, you never let me grow You never let me see the other side of me Locked inside my inner battle Soul set free, one day I'll find my way Tangled in fear, tangled in pain Tangled in dream, tangled insane Tangled in lies, I'm living your lie Fear you held me embraced was I? Faith you held me embraced was I? Once I walked behind your shadow Now I walk alone Fear you held me embraced in lies More than a life you have now wasted Poisoned you are, the poison I've tasted Now you plead forgiveness for what you are No longer I'll evolve, I'm no longer breaking No more can we resolve, this trust forsaken Fear you held me embraced was I? Faith you held me embraced was I? Once I walked behind your shadow Now I walk alone Fear you held me embraced in lies Fear you held me embraced in lies Now I walk alone
