Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Staring down the path, the freshest eyes will never see
The twisting turns and rivulets of time.
It's only when you stand before the final fate
That you will know what lies behind the gate.

(Chorus)
A hard and lonely road you see, it seems like gray is all you feel.
Just for once if only they could see you there.
A nameless face is what you leave, a fading mark on history.
Look for memories, but no one seems to care.
Pretty words on granite, stained with rain and washed in night.
A legacy of broken wishes, hardened truths and stinging lies.
It's been so long since you could sigh. It's been so long since you have tried to bring yourself to life.
Long since forgotten.

(Verse 2)
Waiting for the chance to speak, yet that time will never come.
The quiet feeling of resolve. Empty thoughts in which you bathe.
Hopeless drifting through the stream, and wanting naught but time.
Praying for some small remembrance of your life.
