Every step seems to move you back, every breath feels like your last
Pushing forward in this endless strive – slipping one step further down
How we subside – when we can taste the end
Through these aeons – through these aching times
Reject the urge for closure – endure this struggle to prevail
Until the end is here – the strive must triumph
When all is done, when the weight on your back is dragging you down
Before time runs out – we cannot leave this place
Before time runs out – through aching aeons
Pave your way through the darkest path
Drag your cross through eternity
Sense a light in the distant horizon
Before time runs out – we cannot leave this place
Before time runs out – through aching aeons
Through aching aeons
How we subside – when we can taste the end
Eternal strive – through aching aeons
When time runs out – we cannot end this infinite march
When all is done – this cross is carved into our souls
We must – endure – these aching aeons
Eternal strive – through aching aeons
