The weight is on your shoulders And the path is straight ahead But no one has come this far to guide you No one's here to lead the way To beg forgiveness - and purify the soul To carve your mark - into the soil Our hands are tied - our eyes are blind Our hands are tied - we have lost this Vision - we're still gripping for the past Some words are better left unspoken At last the silence will prevail Soaking in blood Embraced by shadows of the past When the light fades - wash the pain away Forgot to beg forgiveness - and purify the soul This silent rapture A last requiem Our hands are tied we have lost this Vision - we're still gripping for the past This silent rapture The loss of virtue In isolation - the silent rapture Short of breath - the last requiem Hands are tied - gripping for the past Still mourning - the loss of virtue
