Lyrics


1. THE LONGEST WINTER

The long lost winter, acceptance woes
A lasting slumber, a sickness flows
The last of summer, the longing rivers froze
A grasping hunger, as darkness grows

Feeling so alive in this hopeless dream
Feeling so alive in this hopeless dream

We're the ones who pay with honour
Your pain rejected, your holy symbols inane
Your honour remains infected again

The frost of winter, acceptance shows
A grasping hunger, as fever grows
At last the summer, the longing rivers flow
A lasting thunder, as darkness grows

Feeling so alive in this hopeless dream
Feeling so alive in this hopeless dream

We're the ones who pay with honour
A malediction, your holy symbols inane
Will honour remain rejected again?


2. SELL IT TO THE WORLD

It's not without it's consequence
It's not without its joy

Sell it to myself
Sell it to myself
Then sell it to the world

It's not without belligerence
It's not without a ploy

Sell it to myself
Sell it to myself
Then sell it to the world

It thrives in one fraternity
And slowly will destroy

Sell it to myself
Sell it to myself
then sell it to the world


3. SYMBOLIC VIRTUE

I cannot sleep through endless hours
I cannot breathe the thoughts devour
I cannot weep through lost desire
An image burns into the fire

We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow, yearn tomorrow
To death’s symbolic virtue

We’re hollowed, through sorrow

We follow down that long road
To death’s symbolic virtue

With fingers clenched the dread empowers
In our lament, the menace towers
Into fragments the bridge has fallen
Gods orders breached, a will is calling

We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow yearn tomorrow
To death’s symbolic virtue

We’re hollowed, through sorrow

We follow down that long road
To death’s symbolic virtue
(To death’s symbolic virtue)

We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow yearn tomorrow
To death’s symbolic virtue

We’re hollowed, through sorrow

We follow down that long road
To death’s symbolic virtue
