Abandon All Hope - Defining Moments lyrics

rate me

I remember a time when the world was still one-dimensional<br />

I never tread were ambition preyed, <br />

there was no world beyond Adelaide <br />

Then I grew old overnight to run with knives, <br />

through forests of trip-wires<br />

The obstructed light is as blinding as a force-feed daylight<br />

In search of purity I trip and let the blade take motion through me <br />

Scatter the ashes of my old self <br />

A crossroad in the bloodline<br />

A man made answer to a man made void<br />

I re-shape my mind a page at a time <br />

A wrecking ball against my genetic architecture<br />

Beyond the walls a heaven-proof clarity <br />

Common sense overrides my heart<br />

My conscience binds me, your faith deludes you<br />

I prey that one day your love finds me<br />

You wont listen to reason<br />

That uncompromising disposition in you, you bread in me<br />

I had my heart set on finding perfection in a chaotic mess of defection <br />

I had my heart set on realising everything I gave wasn't for nothing<br />

I had my heart set on finding the reason why everything I find I don't end up keeping<br />

I had my heart set on sharing a secret with the whole world and knowing they'll all keep it
