[Verse 1] Where is the hope that we once built upon ourselves Lost thoughts emerge as my past life drifts away Arrogance comes back around to tell you how to feel Mephesto shall let you go, but fills your soul with hate Do not weep for those who wander They'll find it themselves be it time, or fate As I watch it shatter before my eyes It paths a life to a certain demise [Verse 2] Crushing the dreams that had worked their way in I'm breathing the essence of tempt in disguise Leaving my past now to make a different life Reaping this world of the greed it tries to hide Suffocating from constricting hands of time Deaf to reason while adrift in the skies Save me now from this nightmare I decide Innocent horror in the eyes of the blind [Bridge] All these changes we've made Break the meaning of all at fault Make the future you've dreamed of Sure to caution the world you've wrought
