Dedication to a Dead Cause Lyrics


Under the strain the cracks start to show

Still can't tell when it falls, which was it will go

How can an empire, for aeons stand

With it's foundations built upon the sand?

A thousand questions, but never an answer

After a lifetime spent, I can't tell what's been gained

Where am I going? What am I fighting for?...

...Still this undying dedication to a dead cause

The lasting shreds of belief barely hold me together

As I stand on the edge staring out at the dark of forever

No way to tell which way is wrong or right

I'm blind in the darkness, and I'm blind in the light

A victim of my own uncertainty

Bound by parameters of my morality

Am I knowingly leading myself where no one can follow?

Deeper into this hole, there's no way out

A thousand questions, but never an answer

After a lifetime spent, I can't tell what's been gained

Where am I going? What am I fighting for?...

...Still this undying dedication to a dead cause

[Solos: Ellis]

[Twin lead: Ellis & McMorran]

[Solo: Ellis]

Where am I going? What am I fighting for?...

...Still this undying dedication to a dead cause
