Enforsaken - Tales Of Bitterness lyrics

[Words by Steven Sagala, Music by Steve Stell and Joe DeGroot.] [Lead: Stell] The illusion in us all - a social parasite Manipulating circumstance or a judgment stigmatized? The inner revolution, the ruins of the heart These are tales of bitterness let me take you to the start I feel it coming down And waiting at my door My God so far away Does he need me anymore? We travel in this rapid form Unable to fulfill our dreams The fleeting thoughts of yesteryear Impossible for you to breed Songs of a shattered lifetime - modern day dramatics Another contradiction is rising through the conflicts Nothing lasts forever Nothing stays the same We are magnificent material exposed to decay At the farthest reaches of my sight You're not there Where are you now? As I cry for my reprieve Where are you now? As I become who I am supposed to be Tear my heart Ease my pain Further below us yet so up high This paradise will never survive The wrath of mankind means nothing here The hands of the liar will seal my fate I am burning alive As the angels weep, the prophet decrees "Withered wings shall befall the kings" [Lead: Stell] [Lead: DeGroot] The illusion in us all - a social parasite Manipulating circumstance or a judgment stigmatized? The inner revolution, the ruins of the heart These are tales of bitterness let me take you to the start I feel it coming down And waiting at my door My God so far away Does he need me anymore? We travel in this rapid form Unable to fulfill our dreams The fleeting thoughts of yesteryear Impossible for you to breed
