Anacrusis

Present Tense

Anacrusis


Twisting the images 
Watching them grow 
Into what they are not 
Forget we forgot as they fed on what's real 

The path I fell onto 
Of tears wades through 
Await the demise 
In sorry disguise from the things that I feel 

Time does not exist 
The days as thin as mist 
Deep within my eyes 
There is a heart that died long ago 

What is it going to take to get through to you? 
To open your fear-blinded eyes? 
Because there was this fear that would tear at me 
That by our own hands we would fall 

These clouds can pass no light 
Just silhouettes of tired life 
Sorrow begging, why?, for answers miles and miles from the truth 

Endurance and patience lost 
From fighting this holocaust 
Destroying within and eating its way from the core 

Time does not exist 
These days are meaningless 
Deep within my eyes 
There is a heart that died long ago 

What is it going to take to get through to you? 
To open your fear-blinded eyes? 
Because there was this fear that would tear at me 
That by our own hands we would fall 

*Forgive this heart 
Long stagnant with its blood 
For it is here, within my suffering 
That these, the altars of the soul have creaked 
Suffering Hour... 
Suffering Hour... 
Suffering Hour... 
My darkest hour is now 

What is it going to take to get through to you? 
To open your fear-blinded eyes? 
Because there was this fear that would tear at me 
That by our own hands we would fall
