Jens Bogren - Cold as Perfection lyrics

In this pa**ing world There's no time to regret Life's too fast to fold So why lie to yourself ‘cause there's nothing more “Can't you see my light?” That what mirrors behold “Don't speak, let me shine bright” You, my flower blown by the whispers of age Beauty in the storm that relentlessly fades Cold through the winter of life Pulled down below into an ocean of lies My withering rose What a dreadful curse Cast by nature on life Nothing lasts forever Can't turn back the hands of time Like a grain of sand Pray for me my Lord In its hourgla** awaits “For the burden I hold” For the very end when all torments decay And the vanity will leave your heart in peace “My lady listen to your beloved King I can see your eyes are now scared And veiled by the mist of despair Do not be conquered by your own fears Don't let the illusion of perfection seduce you Or you will be lost forever” Desperate while my youth fades away Sorrow is dragging my soul down There's no word you can say to save me My love
