Betray The Emissary - Constants lyrics

I've had my hands stretched out at my brothers' backs, but I still haven't seen their eyes My lungs have whispered their final appeals, but they've offered up only goodbyes I've watched as friends threw themselves to the fire to follow the dreams turned to flame before effect I've been lost for so many years I can't revive your dreams that died with me My God, is this mirror me? Am I the maker of this mundane reality? Are these the choices that I've made? Or just the answers reaped from questioning destiny? I've been dead these past years I can never reclaim all that you lost in me Sometimes we give up on our own Waiting for a sign we're never shown Just finite souls haunting vapid lives So I submit to this fight I've lost the will to thrive When heavy hands and tired hearts make for limping minds My shallow mouth feeds you idle lies
