The Labyrinth

Down on your knees to find your way

Through this labyrinth of whys

Time and again, rig and replay

When nothing justifies

Or leaves a trace to tell

A way out of your shell

To sample life

Time is a wraith

At the point of no return

A memory of the light of day

Time is ablaze

And so we burn

Until the ashes of our lives

Are blown away

Wish I had the power to make you stay

Out through the frozen haze of grey

If constellations align

More brutally sliced by lie than blade

Three acts of cruel design

Disconnect the dots

And against all odds

Still survive

Time is a wraith

At the point of no return

A memory of the light of day

Time is ablaze

And so we burn

Until the ashes of our lives

Are blown away

Wish I had the power to make you stay

For the sake of thrill

Would you own the kill?

Would you impose your will

On another still?

Time is a wraith

At the point of no return

A memory of the light of day

Time is ablaze

And so we burn

Until the ashes of our lives

Are blown away

Wish I had the power to make you stay
