Oblivion

The inquisitive eyes of a nameless traveller
Undefined and misunderstood
Only friend is solitude
Only wish is to feel the sun again
Unfulfilled potential
This search bringing me to my knees
I cry for the remnants of a life
Once flourishing
Unraveling.

Ride towards the storm
Feel the energy flow through you and guide you through the night
Wonder what's beyond
Follow the light at the end of the tunnel that's burning bright.

Remembering the hopes and dreams of yesterdays
I'll never let them fade away (coming back from the brink of death)
Sacrifices I can't forget
Now I've see what's left of me
Tell me where have those feelings gone
Cast into oblivion.

Staring at the autumn sun
Will leave me hanging on for someone to get me out of here
The past can't be undone but the world keeps turning for everyone
Through the looking glass of time
I've seen through the gates of time and it all will be mine once again
I'm lost in the game but I've got something to believe in.

The tide will turn when you least expect
Gates flood open to memories
Everything I touch turns to grey
Nothing will ever feel the same
Superstitious I arrive (and I die)
Silence is the enemy (of our kind)
Hunger for another chance at life
Beyond redemption I ride.

Remembering the hopes and dreams of yesterdays
I'll never let them fade away (coming back from the brink of death)
I'm back from oblivion
Hapless in the face of adversity
You turned your back on me
Ultimate sacrifice at the end
I'm back from oblivion.

Until the final breath is drawn
Don't hesitate and throw your life away
Nothing can stop me now
The doubts inside will be laid to rest as I fall asleep.

I found solace in the rain
Lived to tell a tale of escape
Shouldn't be this hard to understand
Why this land keeps leaving the weak for dead
And everytime I run
I see the damage I've done
To the sacred order of the earth
When it's all said and done
I won't be the only one.
