He fought the world today

And just like yesterday, he lost

She fell into the earth one day

And still she's crawling out

They fled their home today

All they carried was their hate

We stole her heart today

But we left her with the blood

They stole our mind today

But our fate is pouring out

It moves around and around the circle

There are stories, a soul that's dying itself

Intertwined by the fate and providence

As we struggle for survival in a world that does not care

Behind the eclipse

Close your eyes, child

It burns eternally

Feel the silence enter your way

Witnessing a world beyond repair

When the world is out to get you

And you're about to lose control

When you're reaching for the lifeline

Don't you know you're still alive?

And you're crawling through the rubble

Searching for your family

And you cannot help but wonder, why am I still alive?

While we're moving past each other, in a world that's gaining speed

With no time to really hold on to the truth that is revealed

To live a life bereft of meaning, with a soul that's lost at sea

Behind the shimmer and the glow

Is it enough to be alive?

Close your eyes, child

It hurts eternally

Feel the silence and turn away

With this single world beyond repair

Light shines from the circle, turn your eyes away

Their silhouettes embracing, turn your eyes away

Their burning hands is reaching, turn your eyes away

Towards a world that's ending, turn your eyes away

And all the earth will fade and die and pass away

The moment's lost and we forget that all is decided

The shadows fall as light returns (turn your eyes away)

Our lives have lost all meaning (oh)

Do we need darkness? Is the night enough?

Turn your eyes to work in the end

It all comes down

It cracks and burns and tears away

The light

Witness, look down upon the wretched

The lepers and the blind

Will you show them mercy?

Will you close your eyes?

Look down into the terror

Misery and pain

Turn your eyes away from the one without a home

Don't you ever, don't you ever turn away

We are echoes in the night

We are shadows in the light

Memories, oh, when you close your eyes

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
