Hourglass Mists Of Darkness: Washed Away Lyrics

All alone in the silence of the morning
wake to find there's nothing there
that's worth living for
that's worth dying for
either way you don't care

Loss of interest in the things that once drove you
to a place where you could see
there's things worth living for
there's things worth dying for
they're things that set you free

You've fallen prey to the darkness all around you
felt it wash away all that you are
and in the fallout you sense a new beginning
but you can't find the will and don't have the heart

And you feel you're falling
and you know you're drowning
and your chance is fading
and your strength is failing

CHORUS:
Sorrow, washed away in anger
washed away in desperation all alone
sadness, washed away in waking
washed away in finding a way you can cope
with the things you must face
with the endless rat race
with the trial of today
with the things that they say
you don't need them
you can find a better way

Sleep the day away
it's the easy way
too much pain today
too much apathy

When your feelings are desperate
your thoughts become dangerous
when your thoughts put you in duress
what's left for you is to bear it

Written on your face
is nothing but a trace
of where your pain is born
of why your mind is torn

Swaying on the edge of a knife
to the brink of insanity
to the ruin of reality
your perception of your life
has warped what's going on
what's here you think is gone

Is there belief, is there relief
when the nightmare has begun
will your mind reach for the gun
or is there strength inside your soul
to give you back control
only you could know

And you feel you're falling
and you know you're drowning
and your chance is fading
and your faith is failing

CHORUS
