Saddened situations from the past
Ever-growing changing needs
That could never last
On the days that I might fear
All-consuming insincere
I silently collapse

Can we purge the light we've known
For this sacrifice we couldn't make
But we thirst for life unknown?

As the world before me burns
I have nowhere left to turn
Throughout all the centuries of hate

Moments of autonomy repressed
Bleeding through uncertainty
All sanity has left

And we purge the light we've known
For this sacrifice we couldn't make
But we thirst for life unknown

In a dream of hopeless cheer
Withered, beauty disappears
Throughout all the memories remain

For this sacrifice we couldn't make
We'll agonise alone

The sweet fade from night to dawn
In these damaged times that dominate
We'll thirst for life alone

We crave a life, crave a life unknown
