I've felt this presence for a lifetime,
And if you keep your silence I promise to close my 
eyes.
These days can't be undone, but one day you'll 
understand
Why I turned away.
All I ever wanted to become more than the vision of I
Yet in these moments I'll be defined
Language construct of my decline, and still I feel 
nothing
I've gone where death cannot follow and within those 
words be born again...
Will I see our temple left in ruins, in the absence of

Though my intentions remain,
I've severed my ties and I will pull you out from

can know no bounds...
I've felt this presence for a lifetime,
And if you keep your silence I promise to close my 
eyes.

And rely beyond my vision
I have given more than I can stand,
And I still remain until the bitter end when I stand 
before you.
Now it is this in which I endure to see her face in 
this life or the next, wherever I find my place
It's in the veins of my design, and still I feel 
nothing
I've gone where death cannot follow and within those 
words be born again...
And I have not lost my way I'll return in the shadows 
of our last day.
And I have not lost my way I'll return in the shadows 
of our last day.
I feel my focus, stray off this distance of me is it 
still my face,
Hidden behind the mask where I...
