Avalanche Lyrics - Epica
Feels like living in a dream
From which I cannot wake
Voices leading me astray
Cannot hide
Feels like I am growing weaker
I can’t deny
Whatever’s hurting me
Won’t leave me
Here at ease
And I can see your secrecy
Has gone away
In another time
You left me
For someone else
Who'd serve your every need
And set your
World apart
The strain is now
Unbearable,
Turned me to stone
For all the hardship in my way
Hold on, move on
Hear me!
Now hide your face while you carry on 'till the grief comes
Save your soul from the downfall
To give and take was not an option
You had to run and sweep it all away
Leave not a heart to mend
That day I cast so far behind, I’m moving on
For all the stones thrown in my face
Hold on, move on
See me!
Now hide your face while
You carry on ‘till the grief comes
Save your soul from the downfall
Feels like living in a dream from which I cannot wake
I don’t wanna hide
They are tearing me apart
You cannot pray for laughter
You cannot wake
Degenerate the love and hate
We should always ever keep in mind
Our tragedy’s not far behind
Kneeling in disaster
Through all the doubt I can’t allay
Hold on, move on
Now
As it was meant to be
Suffering’s a travesty
Obliterate our past mistakes
We should never lose sight or we'll find
A travesty renewed in time
Chasing ever faster
Feels like living in a dream from which I cannot wake
I don’t wanna hide
They are tearing me apart
You cannot pray for laughter
I cannot decide
I cannot wake
I cannot pray
Feels like living in a dream
From which I cannot wake
Voices leading me astray
Cannot pray
