From the recordings The Ascent and The Ascent [Deluxe]
Lyrics
Disguised as someone I don’t see straight through
The mirror lies, it shatters me and you
Day in and day out
There's no fucking way out
Of this place, of this hell
We're all stuck in this shell
Of our own hollow, empty existence
There is no forgiveness
We're all condemned here
Up until the end
Forever and ever
We'll never ascend
We're all forsaken
Abandoned by god
Our faith in him is now gone
Will we ever, will we ever see the light (x3)
How could we?
A desert in me
So blinded
It's getting so hard to see
Misguided
The Lord as my shepherd
The devil a witness
To all the horrendous acts of mankind
If we're made in your image
Then you know forgiveness
Is nothing but a lie
Life, a glimmer of hope
Fear, a glimpse of the truth
Light, a desire for more
Death becomes me
Disguised as someone I don’t see straight through
The mirror lies, it shatters me and you
