lyrics

Seeking the key to a remedy
Agony haunts each waking day
Stepping upon a web called freedom
Where emotions are pawns

Rising against the social plague
Over the void that you’re holding closer
Entering fear as I exit pain
I live in exile

Seeking the key to an inner peace
Beneath the ruins of something once holy
Morphing our sins into falling rain
To wash away the dust

Breaking away from embodiment
Over the mass that draws me closer
Turning my face away from your sun
I breath in exile

My presence equals absence
Faces that beg for one last wish
We breath below the same sky but nothing feels the same
It ends as soon it started
Refusing to accept defeat
I share a tear and a smile for every dream that bleeds me dry

Soul deception
Judgment is unfair
Spoken truth denied
Last decision
Living under siege
Cursed is he who bites the hand that leads the way

Seeking the key to a remedy
Agony haunts each waking day
Stepping upon a web called freedom
Where emotions are torn

Rising against the social plague
Over the void that you’re holding closer
Entering fear as I exit pain
I live in exile

My presence equals absence
Faces that beg for one last wish
We breath below the same sky but nothing feels the same
It ends as soon it started
Refusing to accept defeat
I share a tear and a smile
