Caught in reflections of the past
A story precreated
We think we're one within the song
That's playing in our ears
It's not a question of control
We just dream to live it all
Up to the very moment
When we attune to its call
How could we believe
The object of our faith
Wasn't just plain greed?
Blindly we agreed
And as the stars kept rolling faster
We got used to our disasters
The cycles run and run
Under a dying sun
Please give me some time
To write your final lines
Temporary lie
Life fulfilled
Death well earned
(Death well earned)
And I can see this could be the end of all
The helpless vessels on the ground
And I pray for our sins to wash away
Bury the gates and kneel before the very end
The vessels walking by
Under the flashing sky
Drifting into the unknown
Longing to be condemned
Please give me some time
To write your final lines
Temporary lie
Life fulfilled
Death well earned
(Death well earned, well earned)
We were once told
We were gods cast aside
How could we've done such a crime
That we live in this eternal war?
The vessels walking by
Under the flashing sky
Drifting into the unknown
Longing to be condemned
Longing to become
