The Empty Stare Lyrics


My mind wandered off in the distance

Where I am far from all that cages me

All I could think of Death

Her name disguised in silence

Angelwings and ravenclaws...

The shredding of my soul

Steeped in a lavender smile

In thy eyes

The womb of thy despair

Embrace my life

Within thy empty stare

The overcast sky consoling me

The fortitude within my grasp

I think to myself I'm the sad clown

Smiling reluctantly, but crying behind the iron curtain

These tears don't fall so easily

In thy eyes

The womb of thy despair

Embrace my life

Within thy empty stare

Damn the illusion which fell upon me!

The bitter wine of reality poured all over my face...

And I despise what I've become

Just a terrified man, secluded and trapped in time

In thy eyes

The womb of thy despair

Embrace thy life

Within the empty stare

Together let us roam

Through endless dreams of night

The moon as our limit

And our souls as guiding light

But how can I refuse my empathy to be resolute?

'Cause it feels like... I'm dying

I have nothing to gain where there is nothing to lose
