Ad Vitam Aeternam

Phoney Icons

Ad Vitam Aeternam


Lost moments blown away… 
They are wounds time cannot heal… 
I looked at you as a friend, 
I looked at you as a guide, 
I wanted to be perfect, 
perfect as a child… 
I looked at you as a friend, 
I looked at you as a guide, 
I just wanted to be perfect, 
but all your trusted were phoney icons. 

All I ever felt, I never could forgive. 
All I ever dreamt was far out of reach. 
I never thought it would 
come out to this. I never thought 
you'd reject me like this. 

I looked deep inside your mind, 
I saw the pain you tried to hide, 
well, your look was so pathetic to me. 
I looked deep inside your mind 
I saw the pain you tried to hide, 
then I saw you lying as screwed as me. 
Now it's too late. 

All I ever wanted, a little peace of mind. 
All I ever trusted are things I left behind. 
I never thought it could turn out like this, 
I never thought it would get sour like this. 
Cause I'm hooked too… 

Your heart turned to stone, it makes me 
sick to hear that all we felt was crap! 
Do you see what I am at? I love 
you best but you played in with me. 
Why did you throw the Jack of Hearts 
away? I can't make it anymore and 
I feel hopelessly weighed down 
by your eyes of steel. You know, 
there are wounds time can't heal. 

You slipped away, your world is not mine! 
Recurring memories emerge with the 
fear of darkness, a cool breeze down my spine… 
Lost moments blown away, let there be a sad mood! 
Phoney icons are just synonymous 
with love, hate, death and freedom…
