From Now On 06:48
The old days have passed I'm trying to keep myself up But something in this strange path I walk Makes it harder The old days have passed I'm trying to keep myself up But something in the strange path I walk Makes it harder I don’t need to remember the last word you said As you were going away I always knew that would happen someday My heart is trying to escape from you Now I feel alive Open my fist, release my mind Oh, can I? Your voice is long, I won’t hear you anymore I please the call of the rain to be stronger To keep myself that way much longer Struggling to guard my spirit, my soul Though it seems so rough Falling apart, laying on the floor Oh, I feel numb

Like the light you returned to awake the day It’s been years now You have something to say You want me to give you breath, to give you air The lie of your soul To dissolve Your miserable battle leads you higher Forces you to fall, drives you through fire Between your worlds to decide Which one you love more? Drown into mud or your people to control While you’re staring he holds your shoulder A painful moment for you To play with words Pour your own blood on the altar of this end Or paralyzed now You stand Your miserable battle leads you higher Forces you to fall, drives you through fire Between your worlds to decide Which one you love more? Drown into mud or your people to control Your miserable battle leads you higher Forces you to fall, drives you through fire Your miserable battle leads you higher Forces you to fall, drives you through fire Between your worlds to decide Which one you love more? Drown into mud or your people to control Between your worlds to decide Which one you love more? Drown into mud or your people to control

A red dragon adores the sea The perfect purple color Their only blend, the only key What sky reflects at nightfall Fire and water as one An alchemy endeavors to complete Serenity is not what just began Two elements are trying to conceive Her dry soul can only be fulfilled With what is stolen from the gods His humid flame is healed When the fire expands A candle at the bottom of his fall The golden dawn mysticism inspires Their magic seems enormous, feels strong Despite their great fights Fire and water as one An alchemy endeavors to complete Serenity is not what just began Two elements are trying to conceive Her dry soul can only be fulfilled With what is stolen from the gods His humid flame is healed When the fire expands Heteronym components and compounds Are doomed to rarely meet But when he, she found The sun confronts the sea A red dragon adores the sea The perfect purple color Their only blend, the only key What sky reflects at nightfall Her dry soul can only be fulfilled With what is stolen from the gods His humid flame is healed When the fire expands

Sealed shutters, wet concretes That is where they sacrificed their souls They gave their blood into the Lethe Without a fight, without a word Like we‘re no longer willing to exist For each other we just look and touch Selfishness fills empty spaces We suffocate, I’m not enough Listen before you leave It’s not just silence what I want you to give Help me stand towards the sun The others are already gone The others are gone The others are gone Without demur they left this place They fear the dark, but they gave their light When time takes its immortal face They seek salvation to clear their sight They simply mind to avoid the night When I only wish and need to breathe To breathe this ground each day and night The ground you walk to come to me Listen before you leave It’s not just silence what I want you to give Help me stand towards the sun The others are already gone The others are gone The others are gone
