The Bedlam Overture Lyrics


Silent screaming words

Offering our lives a way

A perfect smile for all to see

Lingers everywhere

Travels where horizons blend

A grand design to hold as true

Strangers gazing west

Faceless shadows on a screen

A distant comfort, silent cries

Death is just a word

Stripped from meaning long ago

All that's near we hold as dear

Love is their disease

Beyond a cure they gloat in sin

All the while they die

Color taints their mind

Their savage hearts for us to see

Our kinds roam different lands

Breathe... just breathe... close your eyes a while

Stillness lies buried within your own mind

(Air... Breathe... Life...)

(Air... Breathe... Life...)

She's drowning now, her life is swept away

(Air... Breathe... Life...)

(Air... Breathe... Life...)

All silent now, her body in decay

Take a moment now, time to make a choice

Past soon turns into a faded memory

We've gone too far, let go

See the weight of lunacy fall to the ground

Candle flames have turned into a raging fire

By winds put to words

Well of reasoning, calling for discovery

To flush sins of our deeds away...

Breathe... just breathe... close your eyes a while

Stillness lies buried within your own mind

Upon this hollow ground we need to start again

Bridge infernal depths, rebuild the realms we kept

Fight the urge to hide, find the vows that died

Upon this hollow ground we need to start again

Eyes upon the world beyond illusive screens

Now the blood red sky cries for reasons why
