lyrics

(Lead/Solo: B. Almeida)

The East wind will blow its tired song as another life dwindles long...
Past the point of no return.
Still dusk returns to dawn.
Leave no regret and please don't forget:
The spirit carries on.

I've seen you fading too far without a line...

If only I could just go back to the start.
Every word would emit truth straight from the heart.

Have you ever wondered just how we came to be?
Did the world change us or did we create deceit?
Hate is not the answer, and blame's a pointless game.
Yet I know I've failed you,
And my head is full of shame.

I've seen you fading too far without a line...

If only I could just go back to the start.
Every word would emit truth straight from the heart.

Now we're moving on: time cannot be stopped.
Not for everyone.
In another time,
In another life,
We'll meet again.
With nothing left to lose.
Acceptance, I choose.

Save me in my darkest hour.
See me through this darkened hour.

No it won't get better than this. (2x)
There's no light, no light.
No matter how you try to fix it, for it's death's conditions - best wishes.

No matter what you say or do.
There's no amount you can pay not to lose.
No leap of faith,
No hand to trust.
In the end,
We amount to...
Nothing more than dust.

You've already met your maker who you've known for all this time.
Suddenly, it all feels so small,
Resistance is futile such is life...

Now you can get on your knees and pray to an imaginary figure up there near space.
Or you can spend your time on what really matters.
Go give a big fuck you to the everafter...

Now we're moving on: time cannot be stopped.
Not for everyone.
In another time,
In another life,
We'll meet again.
With nothing left to lose.
Acceptance, I choose.

(Solo: B. Almeida)

We were almost, almost, almost there...
(By past the satellites, Your star it shined so bright...) (Both 3x)
I was almost, almost, almost there...

(Solo: S. Oliver)
