Epicurean - Lithograph lyrics

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 a vision of I Yet in these moments I'll be defined Language constructs of my decline And still I feel nothing I've gone where d**h cannot follow And within these words be born again Will I see our temple left in ruins In the absence of love? Though my intentions still remain I've severed my ties And I will pull you out from shelter To stand within the fire And in pa**ing you'll realize the point, the cause At which my rage can know no bounds I've felt this presence for a lifetime 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 And I have not lost my way Return in the shadows of our last day I have not lost my way Return in the shadows of our last day I have looked upon the distance 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, whenever I find my place It's in the veins of my design And still I feel nothing I've gone where d**h cannot follow And within these words be born again And I have not lost my way Return in the shadows of our last day I have not lost my way 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?
