lyrics

Deception of this world surrounds me
How do I break this vision?
The feeling inside pulls my head under the water.
How can I find reality?
The foundation that readied me to build upon
This sinful life,
But I burn for something more

why can’t i fight this?
( the world is so corrupt, blind faith is never enough )
the taste of fire within
( the world is so corrupt, blind faith is never enough )

a sick obsession running deep
of dark morals and darker dreams
if my soul i pray to keep
better grab onto some angel’s wings

Do I yearn for something more?
I yearn for something more.
Waiting for the hand to seep the darkness from my burning core.
Waiting for the touch that guides me gently towards the light
Waiting for the better good that graces my cold, shaky sight.

Have I lived a twisted life? I've lived a twisted life.
Void of any moral structure in chaotic bliss.
Sleeping on a bed of avarice and lust.
Fearing the day i may wake up to Heaven's touch.

I tiptoe gently across the tides of sin
Touching each one to my very being
My very soul, My very core
Twisting the words of innocents to justify my actions
I stand for nothing, In a moral conquest I fail
As another page turns on in the tale of life,
I have a change of heart that prompts me to
think that there is something more

the tides have turned, as have i

I'm not saying that I'm crazy
but I know I'm not okay either.
Caught in the trap between sin and the greater good
my heart cries for repentance of the actions
I may or may not have committed.
What the hell is wrong with me?
My conscious is clouded with the smoke of the foundation
that crumbled and burned.
And I can't find the light
I can't find the solace that will put me down in this time
I cant...I can't find the life in me to move out of the grave I dug for myself

Do I yearn for something more?
I yearn for something more.
Waiting for the hand to seep the darkness from my burning core.
Waiting for the touch that guides me gently towards the light
Waiting for the better good that graces my cold, shaky sight.

Deception of this world surrounds me
How do I break this vision?
The feeling inside pulls my head under the water.
How can I find reality?
The foundation that readied me to build upon
This sinful life,
But I burn for something more

I'm caught in between the devil and the god I've been led to believe in


mother lift me up where i can see
is this really my destiny?
stored inside the great circle’s eye
spinning now for all of time

mother lift me up where i can see
is this really my destiny?
expanding further than these minds
limitless for all of time


Deception of this world surrounds me
How do I break this vision?
The feeling inside pulls my head under the water.
How can I find reality?
The foundation that readied me to build upon
This sinful life,


Do I yearn for something more?
I yearn for something more.
Waiting for the hand to seep the darkness from my burning core.
Waiting for the touch that guides me gently towards the light
Waiting for the better good that graces my cold, shaky sight.

Do I yearn for something more?
I yearn for something more.
Waiting for the hand to seep the darkness from my burning core.
Waiting for the touch that guides me gently towards the light
Waiting for the better good that graces my cold, shaky sight.
