Lyric lagu Epica

MOTHER OF LIGHT

It always put me on the edge,
To think of all the spoiled lives
Today I’m one step further
Not sure if I’ve survived myself

Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction
Whatever happens in my dreams
I know it can’t be worse than this
So I prefer to sleep

I am searching
~ without vision ~
For the answers in the dirt

I am waiting
~ just for nothing ~
For the day that I’ll be heard

You’re the sea in which I’m floating
And I lose myself in you
I am feeling these sensations
I communicate with you

I am looking
~ without vision ~
For a different kind of way

I am thinking
~ just for nothing ~
About that specific day

You’re the night so you’re the dark side
Of the day you’ll never see
You’re the past but everlasting
Can you share one day with me?

You’re the hand that I rejected
But I can’t forgive myself
I am selfish and not worthy
To think of, even to die for

Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction
Whatever happens in my dreams
I know it can’t be worse than this
So I prefer to sleep

Tomorrow, don’t know where I’ll be
I need some place to go now
So do you know the way I feel
Or shall I give up my belief?

You’re the lock I’ve never opened
‘Cause I threw away the key

I’m enclosed within my own thoughts
That will never set me free

You're the hand that I rejected
But I can't forgive myself
I am selfish and not worthy
To think of, even to die for

You’re the question to the answer
And without there’ll never be
Any thought in this direction
You’ve created this in me

You're the hand that I rejected
But I can't forgive myself
I am selfish and not worthy
To think of, even to die for

Serenity is taking over all I am,
It gives me peace and
all I see are visions of my destiny
Why should I bleed and pay for others' greed?

We consciously sign our own sentence of death
How can you go on, did you forget
What we have learned from the past?
We can’t go on killing ourselves
And with us all the rest
Why can’t you see, don’t you regret?

Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction
Whatever happens in my dreams
I know it can’t be worse than this
So I prefer to sleep

I am alone with all my thoughts
Alone without a hope and
I lost the thing I needed most
I feel I can’t survive this fall

UNLEASHED

Declining, All color fading
Defining, time coming for me
Rescinding, my inspiration
Receding consciousness
Set me free!

Back in the day, I can recall
That my thoughts for unclouded and sage
There was no black staining the walls of my memories
Now there’s a haze pushing me sideways
And leaving me nothing to gain
Taking me back, locking me cold in disparity

Where was I meant to be?
I’m feeling lost in a dream
Long for the day I can be myself

When I’m free
When my sun has set
Released my soul forever
I'll have no regret
To be free
I'll exist again
No more lost endeavors
Nothing to contend
When I’m free

Color declines, all that defines me
Is falling away, far behind
Nothing to keep me with the time
The here and now

Where am I meant to be?
I’m feeling lost in a dream
Yearning again only to be myself

When I’m free
When my sun has set
Released my soul forever
I'll have no regret
To be free
I'll exist again
No more lost endeavors
Nothing to contend
When I’m free

Cure me, free me, help me, see me
No more worry, no more losing
Save me, near me, help me, hear me
No more heartache, no misery
Cure me, free me, help me, see me
No more worry, no agony
Save me, near me, help me, hear me
No more heartache, no despairing (we despair)
Cure me, free me, help me, see me
No more worry, no repairing (no repair)

Time’s just a concept
And always the first thing to fade
Agony and weakness
Nothing we can ever avade
Years are cruel, they break us
Bringing on decay and despair
Awareness and perception
Something we can never repair

Freedom for me is all I'm really wanting, needing
Give me power to break out
I can't hold on for any longer
My time has come to end it all

No one to blame, fate's only random
It’s nothing we’ll ever explain
So it remains

Where was I meant to be?
I’m feeling lost in a dream
Long for the day I can be myself

-free-

When will I be unleashed?
it’s not the way it should be
Yearning again only to be myself

When I’m free
When my sun has set
Released my soul forever
I'll have no regret
To be free
I'll exist again
No more lost endeavors
Nothing to contend
When I’m free

Unleash my consciousness

CRY FOR THE MOON

Follow your common sense
You cannot hide yourself
Behind a fairytale forever and ever
Only by revealing the whole truth can we disclose
The soul of this sick bulwark forever and ever
Forever and ever

Indoctrinated minds so very often
Contain sick thoughts
And commit most of the evil they preach against

Don’t try to convince me with messengers from God
You accuse us of sins committed by yourselves
It’s easy to condemn without looking in the mirror
Behind the scenes opens reality

Eternal silence cries out for justice
Forgiveness is not for sale
Nor is the will to forget

Follow your common sense
You cannot hide yourself
Behind a fairytale forever and ever
Only by revealing the whole truth can we disclose
The soul of this sick bulwark forever and ever

Virginity has been stolen at very young ages
And the extinguisher loses its immunity
Morbid abuse of power in the garden of Eden
Where the apple gets a youthful face

Eternal silence cries out for justice
Forgiveness is not for sale
Nor is the will to forget

Follow your common sense
You cannot hide yourself
Behind a fairytale forever and ever
Only by revealing the whole truth can we disclose
The soul of this sick bulwark forever and ever
Forever and ever

Eternal silence cries out for justice
Forgiveness is not for sale
Nor is the will to forget

You can’t go on hiding yourself
Behind old fashioned fairytales
And keep washing your hands in innocence


BLANK INFINITY

Trying to keep myself afloat upon this stream
But a thought is pulling me down
Pulling me all the way down

We are wandering towards a blank infinity
And extinguishing will now be the only way
to diminish your sins
This vortex can't be filled up again
A hole in space and time

Do you cry to the heaven's high
when you're confined in here?
Do you not ever wonder
why these leaden tears will never dry?
They’ll leave behind so many shadows in my mind

High in the sky, all of the clouds are passing by
Wait for this storm, wait for the rain,
and wait for the tears to fall down on me

Do you cry to the heaven's high
when you're confined in here?
Do you not ever wonder
why these leaden tears will never dry?
They’ll leave behind so many shadows
Living in me, living in all the memories in my life

Do you wonder why
These tears never dry
Time forced into life
Living in my mind

Can we ever find a way in t his labyrinth without end?

Labyrinth has no end

Which turn should I take?
Left or right?
Should I stay?
Should I be the one?

Do you cry to the heaven's high
When you're confined in here?
Do you not ever wonder why
This leaden tears will never dry
They leave behind so many shadows
THIS SUBSTANCE IN TIME FORCED INTO LIFE
STILL EXISTS BECAUSE IT'S HERE
living in me, living in all the memories, in my life

Lost inside blank infinity
