From the recording Illumine

Lyrics

When I unravel all my thoughts on life
I am astounded by all the lies
We tell ourselves each and every day.
We say we do not need anything but hate

Have you considered all of us are cursed?
Cursed with a longing to never reach
The end of the story we are all living
All our hopes and dreams are our undoing
Unraveled at the start

When you take all their pride away they say
They can't feel love inside their hearts, so they pray.
Pray to their demons and their gods who stay in shadows,
So they don't have to help their prey.

Have you considered all of us are cursed?
Cursed with a longing to never reach
The end of the story we are all living
All our hopes and dreams are our undoing
Unraveled at the start

Don't you close your eyes
The light won't blind you, nor will it define you.

The night surrounds us in desires
So we don't see the darkness creeping in to our souls.
When you were a child you never liked the night.
What has changed since then?
Now you live in the darkness.
Shadows closing in, where do they begin?

Have you considered all of us are cursed?
Cursed with a longing to never reach
The end of the story we are all living
All our hopes and dreams are our undoing
Unraveled at the start
