Dali's Dilemma: Manifesto For Futurism Lyrics

Close the door behind you
Hide from yourself
Destined to fall down
Praying for help
Pain embraces me
Holding me back
I was in envy
Fragile intact

Truth was forgotten
All the lies that had been told
Fear that leads to pain and silence
And honesty so cold

Life goes by
My truth remains
Follow your own way
Hide your false discouragement
Follow your own way back

Search for answers
Question your ways
Temptation
It's filling your eyes
The pressure leading out
Exit restrained
Altering focus
I'm not the same

Truth was forgotten
All the lies that had been told
Fear that leads to pain and silence
And honesty so cold

Life goes by
My truth remains
Follow your own way
Hide your false discouragement
Follow your own way back

Lead me to open arms
Handle my heart with care
Show me the face unharmed
Show me the love within a stare

Truth was forgotten
All the lies that had been told
Fear that leads to pain and silence
And honesty so cold

Life goes by
My truth remains
Follow your own way
Hide your false discouragement
Follow your own way back

Heavenly skies of fate
Restore the silver gleam
To this rusted lot that borrows gloom

Let the sun fill our eyes with gold again
As we age among the towers

Carry me away
To familiar places
Raise my spirits high
So I'm strong with change

Miracles
We will remember
Miracles
We will remember

Taken away the pace that longs to be forgotten
The glass ponds feed the morrow
So take me back to the place I call home

Carry me away
To familiar places
Raise my spirits high
So I'm strong with change

Miracles
We will remember
Miracles
We will remember

Let the sun fill our eyes with gold again
As we age among the towers

Carry me away
To familiar places
Raise my spirits high
So I'm strong with change

Miracles
We will remember
Miracles
We will remember

Living everyday
Trapped behind the walls
And it's something you defend

Pain is in your eyes
You're holding back the tears
So why is it that you pretend?

And all this time you've hidden the abuse
But now you have a way out
It's your life, just choose

So afraid but not for long
You'll brave the sea despite the waves
Now it's time to shear your fears
And trough them all away
You braved the sea despite the waves

Walked amongst the shadows
Through the chilling air of dusk
Once again, but not alone

Waiting all your life for destiny
To shatter these four walls
And set, you free

So afraid but not for long
You'll brave the sea despite the waves
Now it's time to shear your fears
And trough them all away
You braved the sea despite the waves

Visions in deep sleep
Racing through the mind
Will he ever dream again?

Visions in deep sleep
So vivid and serene
How he wants to dream again

Waiting all your life for destiny
To shatter these four walls
And set, you free

So afraid but not for long
You'll brave the sea despite the waves
Now it's time to shear your fears
And trough them all away
You braved the sea despite the waves

[instrumental]

I've seen your face, in the frame
The cobwebs on the ceiling
I count the days and wasted years
That left me with this feeling

I'm growing cold and tired now
I need a new, depression
Reaching blind, at anything
Save me from the destruction

Hope and dreams were built upon
The ground that wasn't there
Given all there was to give
It echoes though the hall

Awaken to find the view
Strange and unfamiliar
Question you question me
Second-guess reality

Another try left a scar
Reached for me, but reached too far
So far away, so far from you
I see again, I see through you

Gain and fades so quickly now
It fades from above
He lifts himself up off the floor
To watch the moonless night

He's running from the darkness
Into another day
Yielding hope and valor
As silence fades away

Watch them burn, all their bridges
Watch them walk, out of time
Say you won't , won't work whit me
I suggest you get it right

I'm growing cold and tired now
I need a new, depression
Reaching blind, at anything
Save me from the destruction

Hope and dreams were built upon
The ground that wasn't there
Given all there was to give
It echoes though the hall

[instrumental]

King of the stage
Slave to the mirror
He passes the time
In a struggle with fear

How can you turn away time after time?
There's always somebody waiting in line

Hang on to the fever that burns inside of you
Don't hunt for lost treasure
You won't find it there

This time around

Tainted thoughts grow
While he paces the floor
Aimless and weird
Impatiently wanting more

How can you turn away time after time?
There's always somebody waiting in line

Hang on to the fever that burns inside of you
Don't hunt for lost treasure
You won't find it there

This time around

Trial by tear and the truth be ignored
Sun setting near with the light being ignored
Hopeless journey achieving relief
Opening window that will set my heart free

How can you turn away time after time?
There's always somebody waiting in line

Hang on to the fever that burns inside of you
Don't hunt for lost treasure
You won't find it there

This time around

I wait for emotion
For what I feel, for what I see
To fear myself, to fear illusion
The more they love, the more I bleed

I will decide
The sun will shine
I can't go on now
My hope is unsung

Suddenly I'm blinded
Now I walk along
I walk along these memories

It guides my soul
The thirst is quenched with company
My conscience yells but I don't hear it
Forever sleep

It's getting dark
I'm clenched with fear
Please let me go
I must exit here

Suddenly I'm blinded
Now I walk along
I walk along these memories

You took my hand, banished reality
I was afraid, but yet I starred

We all grow cold, the memory fades away
Some lives worth some betrayed
Look into your heart to live externally

I will decide the sun will shine
I can't go on my now hope is unsung

Suddenly I am blinded
Now I walk along
I walk along these memories

Frozen from the sunlight
And burning from the cold
Reciting contradictions
On this dead-end road
He tries to keep his balance
Tries to not look scared
While sinking in ambitions
As everybody stares

Words twist too often
I'm dizzy from the ride
Spare the next moment
It's a wonder I'm alive

Can't you see
I'm trapped in shame
And I'm the only one to blame
Can't you see
There's nowhere to turn
And I'm the only one to blame

The days go on forever
The sun will never set
As long as I'm convicted
I'll have no regrets
Can see the finish line
But tell me what's to gain
And is it worth the life-long race
Only to endure more pain

Words twist too often
I'm dizzy from the ride
Spare the next moment
It's a wonder I'm alive

Can't you see
I'm trapped in shame
And I'm the only one to blame
Can't you see
There's nowhere to turn
And I'm the only one to blame

All that you thought about
Was it something unseen behind all of your hidden doubt
You find a way to make it
Perfect time and motion
Was it that you really wanted
Was it all that you really need
I watched you try
I watched you fail
All the while you're trapped in shame

Words twist too often
I'm dizzy from the ride
Spare the next moment
It's a wonder I'm alive

Can't you see?
I'm trapped in shame
And I'm the only one to blame
Can't you see
I'm trapped in shame
There's nowhere to turn
And I'm the only one to blame
