lyrics

Fade behind the mirrors of deception
Slay the mythic king you think I should have been
I know, my son, finding your way is just waking in pain
Maybe tonight you will unravel at last our bad blood

Mayday, is feeling hatred really all I know?
Maybe this dreadful ache that chokes deep inside...
Had I walked away would the ghost remain dead?

Into the realm of the unknown
They say a part of me remains in you
Do you remember, my child?
You’ll see a man struggling to be true

One with the flow
Time is the thread of the weaver
Weave!
And now connect the dots beneath your hate
And look at this forgery of your own

Into the realm of the unknown
Reach out to find me, my heart is blue
Just ease my cry with a smile
My only wish, to hear the voice I knew

Easy, regrets are part of our nature
Sail through the barren winter
Forgiveness will spring out with life
Hidden under the snow

Into the realm of the unknown
Reach out to find me, my heart is blue
You seem to know we’re not through
Half the story lives inside of you

So, even when you try to grieve me
You let your prejudice be the light
Wishing your fantasies to be true

So, even when you won’t forgive me
You fail to see this path you avoid
Is the only path you walk

So, even when you try to leave me
My shadow lingers in your heart
Child, it’s time to let me die
