Embrace the Silence

A mind lapse succumbed by fear The framework fades then disappears Unto my world this loneliness surrounds me Trust foresees it's final wake I close my eyes, it's breath I take Denied and drained are years befallen from me In these hours seized by memories Reflective paths of light appear I walk alone , I disappear Now I watch you burn inside me The truth is damned and empty I breathe the ashes of your soul That gives me silence , gives me peace Gives me space , gives me release In sullen thoughts , you make me feel so hollow Tangled in this lifetime , tangled in it's sorrow Moments of clarity , fade into tomorrow Tangled in this madness What was deep now shallow If I believe in miracles , why do I feel so hollow Change forced from disarray Yesteryear wasted away Sheltered from this shattered life within me Now I see , truth in memories Reflective paths have disappeared I walk alone , I reappear In darkest days , I'm on my own Why do I feel so hollow An open view, a fading soul Why do I feel so hollow If I believe the new and not the old Why do I feel so hollow I'm lost in truth from what was told Why do I feel so hollow

Whisper words of strength untold Give me peace to rest my soul I’m forsaken for my virtue, mercy left me lost If temptation leads to sin Who's now hurting , who gives in I'm mistaken for my virtue , mercy left me lost Illusive grandeur, weakened life Left unchallenged, justified As I hope, I plead, salvation leads to paradise The journey you made through your mind Plays again, over and over With space in your life you revealed Truth abstained, over and over Now that heavens far away I stand alone, yet feeling to stay Innocence is surely breaking Mercy has its cost Life uncertain, yesterday Is in ashes blown away As I shed a tear, I'm finding out salvation is burning Again, you’ll find out where truth began Oh, this journey has no end Oh, this outcome is now in your hands Will your truth reach the end

Silence that dawned forever Drowning inside Days passed into a lifetime Inner minds collide Washed of my sins forever I turn back the tide Of the years fallen to waste foreseen By countless eyes Fear inside, changing time As I dream, faceless figures are watching me If only I could run far away If only I saw the corners of your mind If only I ran from yesterday If only I escaped to the other side Denied envisioned mercy I dare to find To disguise, the meaning hiding In my life, in my eyes Dying unto this world Blinding my eyes to see Ever changing, re-arranging Pieces of my memory

If life is overrated, empty space in me This twisted mortal coil denied inside of me I pushed away my anger , psychoanalyzed I lived my years , I lived them deep in your lies I see a new a new sunrise I felt the emptiness The light before my eyes , breathing into my life Give into light , give into dark When outside is jaded , we all fall apart Shelter my world , rebuild my mind I rise above , tomorrow's no end Regret lasts forever, time is life's enemy I began a new day of discovery Chained I'm locked inside you Release this memory These open wounds unleashed inside of you and me

Inside my heart there’s questions I don’t know where to start It seems that every time I grasp heaven In my hands there is your heart When my eyes are closed, your face I see With your arms open, I am set free In paradise I’m lost within Breathing, begin, I’m living Hours turn to days, at times I feel one I’m drowning in what seems, embraced eternally Fly in circles in my dreams Cry a new day will begin Surround my mind, surround my soul Cast away your fears outside Give me sight to see inside Finally I see the truth, I’m lost within you I’m jealous of the sun That sees you everyday And of the moon that watches you sleep the night away Finally temptation leaves me To overcome my fear Inside my soul, I've lost control of sight that was so clear

Take a look mankind, what have we done Walk on silent, what has become This age we lead that leaves regret We move forward and we forget Look now mankind, what has become See in these eyes a broken man In worlds different, who understands What justice have you to take away The innocence of yesterday See now mankind, who understands I fall to your knees, I crash to the ground As I cry out your name, I didn't hear a sound If your view ever changes, I hope one day it will Until a phoenix rises, I stand still Guide me father, what can be done You have the answers, I want the truth Can I forget what engraved my mind Can I rebuild what I had inside Tell me father, tell me the truth Look now mother, what can be done In time life changed under this sun That never sets in this gray sky Where everyone's attempt to try Tell me mother, what can be one As I fall to your knees, I crash to the ground As I cry out your name, oblivious to sound If your view someday changes, I hope today it will Until that moment, until the truth, until minds rest Until it’s in you, until the spirit flies into forever Until the phoenix rises, I stand still

Time helped pass this world you left for me Crucify my selfless sanity That turned away, faith I had in you Words cut deep, these wounds of misery Your lies nailed my soul internally Cast away, to your self made truth Understanding what is lost Thoughts and days unfold to black Faded memories Deep inside I can't fight the walls inside , I once was a believer Truth overlooks my life , why can't I believe Cant climb these walls inside , I once was a believer Is there truth within your lies Why can't I believe High and low I searched for answers , searched so endlessly In the corners of your world , was there space for me This crown of thorns on my life , spineless , so untrue Shaken , my foundation shattered And my trust in you Understanding what is lost Months and years unfold to black That fade our memories Deep inside Separation , frozen , timeless thoughts have gone by Closeness , embraced by denial to these eyes Revolution , giving hope from giving in What will become , of answers denied that exist within

Does it matter if these feelings are gone Are we moving on Or do words mean nothing anymore All the honesty left behind I can’t trust you no more I don’t want to be second anymore There’s a comfort in finding love Your soul feels at home You’ll never believe how close we've come A world that whispers No thorn in my side I’ll fly to the sun That won’t burn my eyes Faith can move mountains No force is implied Silent stars passing The answers to life Hold onto the secrets of dreams and desires The secret is so hard to find The secret is found in her eyes I guess my pride has got the best of me The pain is still strong Your story’s complete, mines far from done Take a bow, I’m no angels son I have faith in me We are like leaves, we change and fall

Gone are the days of not fully knowing I think for a while I fly for a while I'm dreaming The earth delights to feel your bare feet For the wise to follow I think of her smile My heart beats for a while I'm breathing Each of us are angels With only one wing And we can only fly embracing Each other within I hope the day treats you kindly Don't waste it by not smiling Today….Today…. You move me in perfect ways The special thought I wrapped with your name I feel the change in my life When I look in your eyes I'm living You found me in a crowd And poured the love I'm giving now I'm elevated

Give me a moment I can freeze in time Give me the passion that was in your eyes Speak empty words to warm my heart Show me reasons why we fall apart Give me the sun to warm my soul My thoughts are blackened, I have lost control Hear me cry your name inside These walls that you confide in If now will be forever These oceans I’ve drowned deep in you will make time Move back the years I lost Somebody come save me, in these days of innocence Somebody come save me, where I thought my life would end Somebody come save me, shadowed by what now is lost Somebody come save me, leave the past forever is it gone Holding out waiting for a sign My faith in you has died Whisper words in harmony Give me time to believe If now is all or never, These oceans I’ve drowned deep in you will make time Move back the years I lost Somebody save me , somebody save me , somebody save me from life I feel like someone's helped me I feel like someone's helped me through Someone has helped me , I feel I need someone like you

Faceless eyes watch over me Surrounding my perception into fear In the days of dark I sheltered truth Viewing through transparent words you speak The change in me Closed doors to a darkened past My soul set free Beyond these eyes Release me , set me free Unchain this past , unchain me Cold are the years , inside you Inside me , do you see The peace denied , the peace set free Light shines through dark I lived in you Reality emotionless Insisting to believe never what is true Denying scars that bleed in you Don’t deny the scars that heal the truth The change you see Closed doors to a darkened past My soul set free Beyond your eyes

Water fills my mind, hate contorts my vision Senses disappear, I’m left within decisions Give me strength to breathe The purpose is what I need to defeat Binding perception running out of time Can you feel the tension rise Was I spared, did I survive The cruel hand that feeds on life Will forever take away our pride We never know the end But we still count the days Not knowing, pretending To be somebody else Will we ever be content, we’re living Will we ever see the unrest in our ways If you look, you’ll see, it will never be the same I turn around, still life’s in front of me You wake up with silence, your only friend Uncertainty remains, if I disappear Will my thoughts remain Days collide My heart divides If I’m not heard at least you know I tried Will we ever be content, we’re living Will we ever see the unrest in our ways If you look, you’ll see, it will never be the same I turn around, life’s still in front of me

Moments of inner melancholia I turn to you in memory Symbolic visions in the withered wind Have all but flown away Distress signals from a golden age Flow through these veins Temptation haunting me to turn the page Do I walk away You said the past could never make you change You said the distance and time will cause heartache You said that there could never be a way for us I know I’m not the wonder in your eyes I see the truth, but I could deny This longing to belong is hurting me Unveiled the faceless names of yesterday In this sanctum bleed Dreams dying eternally Will I be free The fallen leaves of autumn in my soul Let the sky cloud my mind The sun rises, a new day unfolds What was left behind You said the past could never make you see Knowing what hurt you, could have hurt me I thought that there could be a way for us I know I’m not the wonder in your eyes I’ve seen the truth but I could deny This longing to belong is hurting me I know I hold no glimmer in your eyes I know the feelings are denied If you take a chance in time you will see Take a chance, take a chance , in time you will be free Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance , in time you will see
