Lyrics
In a place devoid of experience
Endless suns eclipse the moon.
Wise men pray for pristine mornings,
Others rush the light like fools.
Blank stares survey the pages,
A seed will never grow; lonely, lonely one.
And thrown back in our face is what we do not know.
In a world of ignorance
Cells of gray fade away.
Unaware of danger
We place the hands into the fire.
Upstairs the boarder paces,
The teacher failed to show; lowly, lowly one.
And thrown back in our face is what we do not know.
Empty phrases repeating. Empty phrases echoing.
They come to a wall, wasted and weak.
They have no alibis, only symptoms.
Time?s an expense their greed can?t afford.
They whisper worries, the shepherds hurry.
