Crüxshadows-lyrics

Cassandra
Watching backwards as life like pictures
Stinging thoughts, born with phantoms
We danced above a world forgotten
Moments cherished...even now
A train-wrecked heart loves fairy tales
Singing from a gaping wound
However time has left unsettled
My memories play out of tune

You can't unmake a cold mistake
You can't undo the hearts you break
You can't erase the poet's fate
Not even if you try

And she had Audry Hepburn's smile
With deeper sadder eyes
The only thing she said
No one hears Cassandra cry
Because the earth is standing still
And the truth becomes a lie
A choice profound is bittersweet
No one hears Cassandra cry

A heartfelt sorrow I believe
Offered this for passion's crime
A crippled satellite trapped in orbit
My memories play out of time

You can't unmake a cold mistake
You can't undo the hearts you break
You can't erase the poet's fate
Not even if you ry...

The listless price of my descension
Where emptiness has pulled me down
Cascading from my divagation
Below the frozen winter skies
Pythonic sadness unreleased
As serpents rigid in cold
Waiting for the warmth of Sunday
Before the cruelty of growing old

Are you listening?
Are you listening?
Are you listening now?
Like Orpheus with hope intangled
Your path was mapped about your feet
Leading backwards into forgiveness
Or forward to a foold retreat


Citadel
Languid waves of desperation
Fall before the rains
A vanguard to approaching war
Is borne upon the sea
The icy breath of cyclones bent
On waging our destruction
Drills hard against the hearts of heroes
Called here to defend

I see storms on the horizon
I see the tempest at the gates
I see storms on the horizon
And a citadel alone
Clinging brave defying fate
And I will stand here at the gates to face the onslaught fighting
Without surrender or defeat
With Troy besieged by tyrants' greed - (tyranny)
In Hector's memory, God willing
We shall save this victory
Without surrender or defeat

Sudden silence - I realize
Breaking teardrops in the rain
With every breathing moment
The pillars are sustained
Waking hands attached to nothing
Tightly clutching close
Each sleeping vision speaks unheard
And heaven only knows (exactly why)

Paris' arrow landed true
Paris' arrow landed true
Paris' arrow landed true
Down upon your heel...

This Troy
She will not fall again
This Troy
She will not fall


Marilyn, My bitterness
I don't understand
why you've done these things to me
I can not comprehend
your lack of loyalty

For you i would have shaken down
the heavens from the sky
But it seems my love was stronger than
this love of yours that died

Did you think it wouldn't hurt
Did you think I wouldn't feel
when the world came falling down
or maybe you didn't think at all
and that's why I feel what I feel now

Did you think I wouldn't bawl
Did you think I wouldn't cry
Did you think I wouldn't beg you to stay
One of these days you're gonna realize
just what you've thrown away

Now I lie here in this empty bed
and all I think about is you
and I wonder if you miss me now
and if your bed is empty too

Did you think it wouldn't hurt
Did you think I wouldn't feel
When the world came falling down
Or maybe you didn't think at all
and that's why i feel what i feel now

did you think i wouldn't bawl
did you think i wouldn't cry
did you think i wouldn't beg you to stay
one of these days you're gonna recognize
just who you've thrown away

Marilyn my bitterness
I've fallen to a stranger nightmare
Marilyn oh Marilyn
I can not break away

Marilyn my bitterness
I've fallen to a stranger nightmare
Marilyn oh Marilyn
I can not find my way

I'll absorb this agony
I'll carry all this pain
I'll wipe away this emptiness
I will purify this stain
my wings will fold around me now
for once a one was two
and my memory is a monument
that will always stand for you

but Did you think it wouldn't hurt
Did you think I wouldn't feel
When the world came falling down
Or maybe you didn't think at all
and that's why i feel what i feel now

did you think i wouldn't bawl
did you think I wouldn't cry
did you think I wouldn't beg you to stay
one of these days you're gonna recognize
just who you've thrown away

Marilyn my bitterness
I've fallen to a stranger nightmare
Marilyn oh Marilyn
I can not break away

Marilyn my bitterness
I've fallen to stranger nightmare
Marilyn oh Marilyn
I can not find my way

Marilyn my bitterness
I've fallen to a stranger nightmare
Marilyn oh Marilyn
I can not break away

Marilyn my bitterness
I've fallen to a stranger nightmare
Marilyn oh Marilyn
I can not find my way

Marilyn my bitterness
i've fallen to a stranger nightmare
Marilyn oh Marilyn
I can not find my way

Marilyn my bitterness
i've fallen to a stranger nightmare
Marilyn oh Marilyn
Now must I go away?

Untrue
My eyes resign dissolving vision
To vividness of sense and sequence
Betrayed by certain circumstances
Outside the world I've known

How cold and cut bewildered silence
Left me for a newer face
While sadness dances gracefully
In this forgotten place

Regardless of the introspection
I found myself in your reflection
I guess it's all too easy now
To look the other way

Saving graces, trading places
Asking for a sense of hope
But the line to heaven's ringing busy
And I walk this path alone

What kind of sick games were we playing?
No rules, no constitution
No sympathy for one another
And nowhere left to go

Regardless of the introspection
I see myself in your reflection
I guess it makes it easier
To turn your eyes away

And I'm not asking you to lie and tell me
That you love me still
I know that it's untrue
(I know that it's untrue)

So I'm not asking you to lie and tell me that
You want me too
I know that it's untrue
(I know that it's untrue)

Saving secrets unembellished
Left without revision
Sacrosanct and underground
Why do I need you so?
(Why do I need you so?)

And sentiment was none-too-careful
Delivering the means
To break the balance of perfection
And eliminate these dreams

Regardless of the introspection
I see myself in your reflection
I guess it makes it easier
To turn your eyes away

And I'm not asking you to lie and tell me that
You love me still
I know that it's untrue
(I know that it's untrue)

So I'm not asking you to lie and tell me that
You want me too
I know that it's untrue
(I know that it's untrue)

So what do I do?
What do I do?
I still love you..

Life is such a tangled mess
With cruel lines dividing us
I don't want to be
On the other side from you

And I'm not asking you to lie and tell me that
You love me still
I know that it's untrue
(I know that it's untrue)

So I'm not asking you to lie and tell me that
You want me too
I know that it's untrue
(I know that it's untrue)


Waithing to leave
With watching eyes
You see dreams dissolving
Distant voices slipping away
I have to go - I hear
The call of something deeper
A voice inside of me

And tears return
Beneath the happy ending
Promised words that scattered
In the cold
I have to leave, I hear
The call of something higher
Something young becoming old

I can't stay here any longer
Trapped here by the rain
I can't stay here any longer
Waiting for this train

I'm waiting for the last train
Out of nowhere
I'm waiting for the last train
On the line
Some people say that I will
Never leave here..
But I have to go this time

I'm waiting for the last train
Bound for somewhere
I'm playing with my last chance
On the line
I think it's really now or never
You know I have to try...

My sympathies,
Are wasted on regretting
Why not come with me?
I have to go - I hear
The call of something stronger
And it's pulling me away

I can't stay here any longer
Trapped here by the rain
I can't stay here any longer
Waiting for this train

I'm waiting for the last train
Out of nowhere
I'm waiting for the last train
On the line
Some people say that I will
Never leave here..
But I have to go this time

I'm waiting for the last train
Bound for somewhere
I'm playing with my last chance
On the line
I think it's really now or never
You know I have to try...

I've been running around in circles
Without any direction
I've been searching hard to find
Who I really am..

I've been running around in circles
Without any direction
I've been lost here for so long
I've forgotten who I am..

I'm waiting for the last train
Out of nowhere
I'm waiting for the last train
On the line
Some people say that I will
Never leave here..
But I have to go this time

I'm waiting for the last train
Bound for somewhere
I'm playing with my last chance
On the line
I think it's really now or never
You know I have to try...
