The Second Stone

The Second Stone - Epica

Written by： Coen J. Janssen/Arien Van Der Weesenbeck

O ne moriar bis

Oro supplex

Sometimes I feel like my reason is weakening

My inner clock's forcing time stand till

I'm breaching borders between life and sanity

That's when it all starts to shatter in front of me

Liberate me

Why don't you liberate me

Sometimes I feel I'm betraying my memory

This time it seems that I'm losing the fight

Finding it hard to be consciously part of life

That's when awareness and dreams start to separate

It's time to reunite me

As time goes by I hide the truth

Cannot stand myself with a broken shell

As time goes by I try to choose

Don't know where to roam in this private hell

Give me relief

Let me believe between sweet fiction and reality

My train thoughts got lost somewhere along the way

I'm chasing shadows that cross on my path

Repeating visions that dance faster than my mind

Can't stop the rain casting shadows on my parade

Can't defeat me

As time goes by I hide the truth

Cannot stand myself with a broken shell

As time goes by I try to choose

Don't know where to roam in this private hell

Give me relief

Let me believe between sweet fiction and reality

Ne moriar bis

Another life another mind close to insanity

Another road a cryptic code the second stone

All the is left is a cross that's mine to bear

A cruse with no ending drenched in anxiety

O ne discedam bis

Oro supplex

As time goes by I hide the truth

Cannot stand myself with a broken shell

Give me relief

Let me believe between sweet fiction and reality

As time goes by I try to choose

Don't know where to roam in this private hell

Give me relief

Let me believe between sweet fiction and reality

Ne moriar bis
