The Shroud - Prophecy lyrics

It wasn't meant to be this way It wasn't part of the plan Oh your eyes frighten me, take me back, to a moment I almost forgot I saw the darkness behind them, shining brightly Brighter than all the stars reflected in the night sky Heaven shows me far too much Let me close my eyes... I remember when you came to find me, just like I'm seeing now before me So much hidden in a simple kiss, a gentle caress All of that darkness kept inside turned my words so strange and sad This gift you've given to me keeps its meaning hidden deep inside me Turns my days around, the rising sun lights my night I never looked away I ran to you with open arms Heaven shows me far too much Let me close my eyes... Now I see your face again, I see your eyes again Just like they were before.... The vision crashing in again Raining down on me Wind and rain burn the earth away And I see the empty sky...
