A City of the blind -
Their vile inhabitants
Abashed by their own lives' insignificance.

The silent void of cogitations -
Absence of signification -
Committed to burn twice as long and half as bright

We're dashing forward with our eyeballs turned inward: until the end of time, the human eye
Staring wide-open into the horror of the mind shall never ever sleep again
<x4>

We have awoken from our sleep
Nevermore will be as unheeding as the flock of sheep...

We have awoken from our sleep
Nevermore unheeding as the sheep...
Grazing ingenuously,
Living blithely,
Roaming insouciantly,
Forgetting instantly.

Every night...
I'm swooping with the vast span of my wings
Into the death-throes of my memory: the eternal scourge of the human mind.
Terrified of what I'm about to find.
I'm trying to stop the past's rapid flight.
<X2>

Grazing ingenuously,
Living blithely,
Roaming insouciantly,
Forgetting instantly

I'm wandering in times which are not mine -
Lost in between the s___ and the shine.
The snake of fear creeps into our hearts at night
Subdueing every mind at bedtime.
What will it take to arrive
And cease trying to stop the past's rapid flight?
How much more do I have to go through
To prove myself that I'm still alive?
<X2>

We are living in pain.
The wind of the past will always shake you in the end
We're waiting for the day
When we will attain the ability to forget.

I'm wandering in times which are not mine -
Lost in between the s___ and the shine.
The snake of fear creeps into our hearts at night
Subdueing every mind at bedtime.
What will it take to arrive
And cease trying to stop the past's rapid flight?
How much more do I have to go through
To prove myself that I'm still alive?
<X2>

For, every day of our lives, the present is painful -
The future unknown.
The sting of the past is what makes every moment unbearable.

The future is overgrown...
