We believe to be eternal until we face the point of no return   All state of grace is transient   All shall die and turn to ashes and dust       Desacralized, desensitized   Chasing the light just wishing to live a little more   It's like a hole inside our chest   A clear cut bleeding, always open wide      To reach the apex of life is to walk in a vale of tears   Heavens still remain out of sight wherever we watch   To reach the apex of life is to walk in a vale of tears   We shine to finally dissolve in oblivion and be absolved through death      We�ve looked for strength through joy   Deprivation is all what we get   We�ve kept on trying to reach the stars   And deny mortality      We rise to better fall, condemned to rust and crumble for centuries   To behold the leftovers of our dreams now turn to smoking ruins      We ride the whirlwind of doom   A gigantic storm    Of cataclysmic and catastrophic proportions      It�s like a hole inside our chest   A clear cut bleeding, always open wide      To reach the apex of life is to walk in a vale of tears   Heavens still remain out of sight wherever we watch   To reach the apex of life is to walk in a vale of tears   We shine to finally dissolve in oblivion and be absolved through death      Death
