|
I'm taken through the hourglass |
|
I'm being tossed upon the sand |
|
Am I alone |
|
The words still linger |
|
In my head |
|
I'm breathing in the salty air |
|
There is a mark upon my hand |
|
Is there a seat for me |
|
Among the dreaming dead |
|
I was sealed in a tomb of sadness |
|
I was trapped in a cell of sleep |
|
I was held by the hands of time |
|
Now this time is mine to keep |
|
I'm still alive |
|
Far from the casket and cradle |
|
I'm still alive |
|
I've taken the fate out of fatal |
|
I'm still alive |
|
They tied me to the pendulum |
|
They hung my heart across the sky |
|
I found my soul eclipsed |
|
My body crucified |
|
I was caged in the age of miracles |
|
I was set in a hollow sky |
|
I was kept under shadow's lock |
|
Now I don't know how to die |
|
I'm still alive |
|
Far from the casket and cradle |
|
I'm still alive |
|
I've taken the fate out of fatal |
|
I'm still alive |
|
My star is rising now |
|
As the ferryman appears |
|
He bears an offering |
|
A piece of silver for my fears |
|
I couldn't cut the deal |
|
Mine is not his fate to buy |
|
And as I fly my canvas |
|
He ascends on high |
|
Shattering the Earth and the Heavens |
|
(I feel his icy breath of |
|
fire consuming me) |
|
Shattering the Earth and the Heavens |
|
(The demon rises up, a bird |
|
of coal and flame) |
|
Shattering the Earth and the Heavens |
|
(I am surrounded by the |
|
wings of water now) |
|
Shattering the Earth and the Heavens |
|
(They've come to lift me out of here) |
|
I'm still alive |
|
Far from the casket and cradle |
|
I'm still alive |
|
I've taken the fate out of fatal |
|
I'm still alive |
