lyrics

Elegy

See what this life became, to see the ending of this day that fades away,
Everything has come before me.
See now there’s nothing gained, a lie that spawned from elder ways won’t fade away.
What is left, for us to take?

It was a lie we knew so well. It was a sign that came to all.
See the last to die, bitter was the end.
He was a picture left to fade. But he prayed for better days.
Watch a simple man, rise to us and say.

And we take this lie it’s a whole new way,
As we came to life, as we fade away,
But for all we strive, nothings left, to feel the dust that we became.
Mine is the last endeavour.
Mine is the last endeavour. To feel the dawning of new day,
I lapse into your ways.

This wretched serenade, you sang it to me every day, I shy away,
Everything that came before me.
I see what I can be now. Your hold on me will fade tonight, I come to life,
I will rise, to watch you fall.

Another lie we knew so well, as I fade now fall now (we came to life)
bitter was the end.
Another picture left to fade. But he prayed for better days.
Watch a simple man, rise to us and say.

Chorus.

My spirit bound by moonlight. These eyes deny this past life…
