All my tears, all my pain, all my misery
fade away from grief
I can not hold beyond insanity, beyond this portrait,
eyes wanted to see...
I could not keep the silence offered me,
step by step the thorns penetrate my skin
moments in time is all that remains
sand in the sea is everything I am
Disappointment is the word that silently
whispers my weary soul, this my invisible punishment
on my own cross...
The sign and the loss...
Crucified... waiting for the end
dying with the light of the day
I could not keep the silence offered me.
Step by step the thorns penetrate my skin
an empty phrase is all that remains
a leaf on the wind is everything I am...
