Solitary Waves Lyrics - Singles - Chalice

The change is made within an innocent breath 

A veil around an existence 

Accursed with a solitary death 

Dancing a line of unending decline 

Over chasms I knew not to be 

A wave of emotions 'pon desolate oceans 

That drown in a lust to be free 

Though birds may sing it is oft unsure 

Does the joy of life from their spirits stem? 

To grace the skies yet shy away 

From the eyes that most adore them 

All that is hurt and all that is loved are one 

Does the blood on these hands 

Now dry in the heat of the sun? 

Admist a sea of tranquility 

Must I writhe on a desperate shore? 

A spirit and mind no longer aligned 

With an honour I cannot restore 

Guilt shall feed the nightmares 

That I slumber with this eve 

Tomorrow I must walk among the shame 

How sad it is, a mind that 

Harboured such control and pride 

Is now the sickened brethren of the lame
