Bloodline - I Had A Vision lyrics

rate me

Bloodline - I Had A Vision

I can hear the silent cries

Of a million empty souls

And their empty lullabies

And I see their faces, see their stares

Asking why I left them there

When I peel away the layers

And see that no one cares.

It seems the world is upside down

And we’re praised for all our sins

And we embrace the latest clown

Whose smile is growing thin

And every single bridge we burn

Is a pyre to light our way

And when the lesson has been learned

Could we face another day?

Every night I dream and see

All the hopeless misery

Of a million empty souls

And feel the shame in me

I hear their voices calling me

Begging me to set them free

From a world that doesn’t care

So I peel away the layers.

And every single bridge we burn

Relieves us from our sins

Rules that we can never learn

Where the loser always wins

And every single bridge we burn

Is a pyre to mark the end

And brings a path of no return

So what will we do then?

Like a handful of broken glass

A splintered fence, an underpass

That’s what my head’s like inside

The images won’t disappear

As silence falls all I can hear

Are the tears they have cried.

I had a vision

I may be insane

The vision comes to me

Again and again and again

A world without sorrow

A world without pain

Where everyone’s equal

And no one is slain

Where life is regarded

As something unique

My dreams are relentless

They won’t let me sleep

I had a vision

I may be insane

The vision comes to me

Again and again and again
