The River

Alone and forgotten Waiting on the answers from father time The silence seems emote It screams from the past and the broken lines Chorus: Take me to the river Kneel upon the shore Cast me into eternity Let the wind take me through the door The wind has abandoned Our souls touch the water, it ebbs and flows It carries us further From our destination to distant shore Repeat Chorus

Falling feels just like flying All my pain meets away The illusions of my perception Are left chained to yesterday Every second that I forget to fall Every vision seems unreal I down my eyes to face the world alone Bridge: What have we done, how has it come to this? Every second feels just like eternity And now it's done, everything fades to grey and dies And we're alone... Chorus: A rapture of water I'm drowning in fear The tide can't wash over our sins They gave us an altar without any faith And I question as I lie awake. Now my life laid out before me Left to face another day Turning on my past reflections Every corner looks just the same Every moment that I fail to recall My past now fades away I open my eyes and know that I'm alone Repeat Bridge Repeat Chorus

Wrapping my hands around your throat, so your empty words cannot escape Trapping inside forever deception and the lies that have sealed your fate And now you struggle to find your way out Hiding scars, "knowing her mouth is a tomb" Leaving behind the oppression of your mind Her shifting eyes no longer aggressive as the color drains from her face Leaving behind a life so pathetic I told you I would make you pay And through your anguish I find my way out Is this remorse? "Knowing she could seal your doom." Is it redemption to leave your lifeless... but still alive? Chorus: I saw the light and it burned This is the last scar You've crossed the line and I'll make you learn I saw the light and it burned You've given your last scar I've suffered enough and now it's your turn Running through mazes of insanity the chaotic logic of the co-dependent I thought I had left you, thought I was rid of your curse And still I struggle, is there no way out? Am I condemned? "Knowing this house is my tomb" Would you forgive me if I just end it tonight? Repeat Chorus Bridge: Lying in a pool of crimson starlight Glimmers from above upon my head The past comes rushing in I will not let the terrors in... I give myself to you upon this altar Repeat Chorus It's the last scar

My heart is racing, I cannot feel may rms This world that I have built it all comes crashing to the ground I'm frozen, I'm frozen I am descending, the mirror has me now Death would be much easier than to bear this veil of stone I'm broken, I'm broken Chorus: I'm falling through shadows The follow mw close behind I wander through this nightmare Til' I reach The other side of fear The floor is sharking, I'm losing all control My sense are oblivious to everything around It's fading, it's fading And I am empty, there's nothing left of me Can it be I'll never come to see the other side? It's over, it's over Repeat Chorus Bridge: Bearing witness to this entity That hovers up above Regardless, of what we do to justify our fear And all the little pills We take, in the hope he'll go away Sinking further into misery Repeat Chorus

You're not who you say you are There's something strange about the way you stare The pain's so far behind us now We've given it up still we don't know how Is this goodbye now? Is this not quite what you had dreamed? Chorus: When I looked in the shadows all I could see Was the fading light of my unfinished dreams How have I come so far too till feel so far away? "Is there another face?" So, I try not to listen to their stifled screams The reflections tend to be now what they seem Maybe I'll just forget and hope they all die away... "Is there another face?" The pain hits like an opiate My past just slips away in a haze, frame by frame Is this really all that's left of me I pick up the pieces, still I can't see "Who will survive now?" And I'm not sure how they all fit Repeat Chorus Bridge: In asking ourselves questions to which the answers may surprises In multiple iterations come revelations that may bind us The consequence follow us to the end of time Thought it may be a bit confusing which sin is yours, and which is mine Waiting, on the edge of a storm All the signs point to nothing They won't carry us home Waiting, on the edge of a storm All the signs point to nothing They won't carry us home Waiting, in the edge of a storm And the tempest is coming And we'll face it alone Waiting, on the edge of a storm All the signs point to nothing They won't carry us home
