Now is the time to reach out before I find myself on the edge of existence (The edge of existence) Evolving from an agonising birth Dark days eclipsing draining all self-worth Dreams of hideous splendour begin Conceal the faith and seek redemption Dark days eclipsing draining my worth Dark days eclipsing I’m growing weary of destroying all the evidence I'm growing uncertain of the outcome With all these constant reminders of where I've gone and what I've seen When you said you were searching I hoped that you’d find me When you said you were searching I hoped that you’d find me now (When you said you were searching) When you said you were searching I hoped that you’d find me now (When you said you were searching) Searching Living in oceans of assaulted tranquility Only a shadow, I have inaudibly fallen through Everything that I longed for was right before my eyes (Before my eyes) Neglected, abandoned As you walked away and called back my name I knew then I had made a mistake Crashing into the harsh reality that things will never be the same (They won’t be the same) I'm dead to you I'm dead to you forever I can never get back what I chose to throw away Dreams of bliss repeat my name Choices made without the heart, now despised Choices made without the heart, now despised When you said you were searching I hoped that you’d find me I know you're seeking more I know that you're searching I know you're seeking more I hoped that you'd find me I know you're seeking I know that you're searching I know you're seeking I know that you're searching Searching

I’ll marvel and I’ll dread how you’re not alive, though your prehistory has dimension Your jealously will dry these plains Pull up your roots like rotten teeth I’ll follow you so long, then maybe I’ll be something more I’ll follow you so long, then maybe I’ll be something more I know I am lost From the lacerations between the earth, I’ll take in the last of your water And when not a drop is left, I will fall into your bed of arms and die without division I’ll follow you so long, then maybe I’ll be something more. I know I am lost These dreams are reoccurring I know I am lost (I am lost) In reverie of your sentiment you drew me out I was hoping that you’d follow suit until the day that I cease to exist. Until the day I cease to exist Until the day that I cease to exist Though your prehistory has dimension I’ll marvel and I’ll dread how you’re not alive though your prehistory has dimension I’ll follow you so long, then maybe I’ll be something more I know I am lost These dreams are recurring, I know I am lost (I am lost)

Now I can see the only thing that's keeping me from you I've tried to make the best of this time But no one seems to know why you're making the same mistakes And you know they're bringing us closer to a senseless end In the midst of transition distant memories begin to emanate You wish you had not begun this endeavor Now the light begins to fade Take a chance alter your destiny Distant memories begin to dissipate Take a chance alter your destiny I hear the distant echoes of forgotten choices Waiting patiently for a moment of inspiration Trusting reflections of short duration With the passage of time my opinion becomes useless Am I wasting my time? You've become the scattered remnants of who I thought I was Am I wasting my fucking time? Finding myself asking questions without answers Am I wasting my fucking time now? You wish you had not begun this endeavor Now the light begins to fade Reach into the unseen, seek to understand When you said you were you searching I hoped that you'd find me now When you said you were searching When you said you were you searching I hoped that you'd find me now When you said you were searching I was chosen by name, generated by those who built me up again But still, I refuse to let go without restraint You're a part of much more than this Now tell me, what the fuck was the point of this self-inflicted misery Your reality is shifting from one moment to the fucking next Now I can see the only thing that's keeping me from you I've tried to make the best of this time But no one seems to know why you're making the same mistakes And you know they're bringing us closer to a senseless end

Unassuming truths become remedial for shades of devotion I know, since my soul is on display for nothing but scrutiny Stare in my direction and catch a glimpse of who I'm becoming While the world loses its colour by the rain I'm finding myself to be completely desaturated Adhering to pointless endeavors I'm finding myself to be completely desaturated Adhering to pointless endeavors I am wandering, I'm not following I am wandering I am wandering never following I am wandering, I am not following My thoughts are perpetuating perpetuating Into an infinite sequence And in turn I'm unable to utter a single word with confidence I'm losing passion, lacking feeling, fading colours From a deep red to a dismal grey I am everyone, yet no one at the same time I passage through channels toward my own lifetime, Recognizing I'll never be conscious again I'll never be conscious again My eternity resembles a single instant Dwelling in all regions and leaving no imprint I'm in touch with infinity and visionless (The visionless) Unassuming truths become remedial for shades of devotion I know, since my soul is on display for nothing but scrutiny My thoughts are perpetuating into an infinite sequence, and in turn I'm unable to utter a single word I'm losing confidence I'm losing passion, lacking feeling, fading colours

It leaves me breathless, with next to nothing but open hands. Picture perfect, by no means worth it We’ve been in shambles before, but not again What will it take for my voice to be heard again? What will it take for my life to mean something? What will it take? What will it take? What will it take for my voice to be heard again? What will it take? What will it take for my life to mean something? And I wished that I could have been honest, now that so many years have gone past My tread will carry on, you are all I see Visibly not a better me and I felt as if nothing was concrete And I hate that I see things this way (See things this way) What will it take for my voice to be heard again? What will it take for my life to mean something? What will it take, what will it take? What will it take for my voice to be heard again? What will it take? What will it take for my life to mean something? And I wished that I could have been honest, now that so many years have gone past My tread will carry on, you are all I see For so long I couldn’t move on without failure paving my way My tread will carry on, you are all I see Never proud of distant memories (I promised I wouldn’t play it safe) But I knew the cost Am I allowed to learn from my mistakes? Will you stop waiting up for me? It takes a while to get ahead to get what you need Will you stop waiting up for me, to get ahead and to pass through your need? I swear we’ll move on And I wished that I could have been honest, now that so many years have gone past My tread will carry on, you are all I see For so long I couldn’t move on without failure paving my way My tread will carry on, you are all I see What will it take, what will it take? What will it take for my voice to be heard again? What will it take? What will it take for my life to be whole again?

I am constantly dwelling on these memories that take me to the place I want to be (Can you hear me now?) I know that you're searching, I know that you're seeking something (Can you feel me now?) I know that you're searching, I know that you're seeking something so far from my reach I hope you realize though we are lost, we are not alone Together we'll be searching and answers will surely come You're so far from my reach and I'd give anything to return to way we used to be Losing everything made me see clearly I’m willing to forfeit all that I am so that I may be with you again (You again) You knew you'd find me here It took me losing sight to count it all as a loss I hope you realize, though we are lost we are not alone Together we’re searching and the answers will surely come (Can you feel me now?) I know that you're searching, I know that you're seeking something so far from my reach Without you I'm nothing Release I'll release everything Release all I am You're so far from my reach Release I'll release everything Release all I am (I'm constantly doubting my abilities) You're so far from my reach
