Penance - Parallel Corners Lyrics





Born to suffer


[Music: Smail/Weston/Goodbread]
+
[Lyrics: Smail/Weston/Goodbread]
+
All this suffering yet I cannot feel it
+
Words of consolation I bring to you
+
I am torn by grief and sorrow
+
For me there's no tomorrow
+
Hiding under your shroud of security
+
For your peace of mind
+
I've lived and learned with gifts bestowed on me
+
But I was left behind
+
I reach for you but you're illusion
+
Please excuse me for my intrusion
+
Once hopeful but now just living
+
Why must I be punished for giving
+
Youth memories that once had sheltered me
+
Kill me in the end
+
Born to suffer live by standard die in despair
+
Born to suffer again
+
Who are your heroes? Where are the morals?
+
Somewhere in limbo but surely not here
+
Can't you see my misery maybe tomorrow I'll be all right
+
Blasphemy and irony of a world on it's knees
+
Reality's gain is my loss, until a change
+
I will suffer
+

Crosses


[Music: Smail/Weston]
+
[Lyrics: Smail]
+
Life's so fast, got to make it last
+
You've got to let your feelings show
+
Don't have all the answers to cure life's cancer
+
I've been around enough to know
+
Life... another cross that we bear
+
Hope... amidst the pain and despair
+
Release your pain
+
World's a mess, we've got to do our best
+
Try and clot the world's wounds bleeding
+
We've got to fight, hard is the path to right
+
Winning's not worth it if it's easy
+
Life... another cross that we bear
+
Hope... amidst the pain and despair
+
Release your pain
+
I'm out in the world without a home
+
I'm scared but not alone
+
I don't know where to go
+
But I know where I'm going
+
It's got to be me and you
+
With a little love we can make it through
+

Destroyed by one


[Music: Smail]
+
[Lyrics: Smail]
+
As I lay here my lifeblood is flowing
+
Can you feel all of the pain I'm knowing
+
Cannot understand but still I know feelings
+
Your frightful existence has me reeling
+
What importance do I hold for you
+
Just a status symbol of the things you do
+
You can rationalize your reasons
+
You can twist the twisted truth
+
To me that doesn't matter much
+
I'm hanging by your views
+
You cannot see the things I'd be
+
Or hear what I've to say
+
But you take it upon yourself
+
To take my life away
+
I can feel your pain
+
I'm to lose and you're to gain
+
The shape of things to come
+
Destroyed by one
+
Innocent and pure
+
Selfish thoughts are all too sure
+
Why must it end this way?
+
Where's my say?
+

Reflections


[Music: Weston]
+
[Lyrics: Smail]
+
Looking at changes beyond my control with hesitation
+
Setting in my life new goals - a liberation
+
Making my way blindly through life I see what I can
+
Sooner than later life takes its toll - a boy to a man
+
Wait - I see a chance at the window
+
Fate - mustn't always decide
+
I'll follow through with or without you
+
But I will be all right
+
Starting over isn't easy
+
It gets tougher every time, but to
+
Live and learn without getting burned
+
Is like not living at all
+

Visions


[Music: Weston/Freund]
+
[Lyrics: Smail]
+
Envisioned fear
+
I dream of you
+
My time is drawing near
+
To bring me through
+
Are you heaven sent?
+
Or a messenger from hell?
+
How can I tell?
+
How can I tell?
+
Sweetly smiling
+
Or mocking jest
+
Tenderly beguiling
+
As I await my final breath
+
This time I've crossed the line for good
+
Won't go back even if I could
+
Now I have all the answers
+
But I can't tell
+

Words not deeds


[Music: Weston/Smail]
+
[Lyrics: Smail]
+
What is real and what is fantasy
+
Are you who you are or what you want to be
+
Your kind breeds conceit
+
Fact and fiction conceived
+
You don't know you only see
+
Words not deeds
+
A perceived perception or factual entity
+
All you know is who I'm supposed to be
+
Your kind breeds conceit
+
Fact and fiction conceived
+
You don't know you only see
+
Words not deeds
+
Adding more fuel to the lie that you fire
+
I'm living the truth while you're projecting a liar

Words to live by


[Music: Weston/Smail]
+
[Lyrics: Smail]
+
Cosmic pillars stand I'm my way
+
Shooting stars soon fall
+
Airtight blackness everywhere
+
You cry and I'm appalled
+
Vortex spins
+
Without fear
+
End of all
+
Is drawing near
+
Screaming shards rip into me
+
Others I can't feel
+
Lookin' 'round parallel corners
+
Distorting what is real
+
Hear your call
+
In the night
+
Right is wrong
+
And wrong is right
+
You talk in riddles I speak in rhyme
+
But yet the sun that never sets still ceases to shine
+
Reality fades in dreams of regret
+
I cannot remember but will never forget
+
The past is my present, the future's a lie
+
These are words to live by
+
