Storm the Sorrow - Epica

I know you're running from a tidal wave You can't ignore I know you're trapped inside a hurricane In the eye of the storm Of the storm Of the storm When it feels like you can't go on You're only one step away From breaking down the walls you made The walls you made and I know it's hard to move on I know it's hard to let go But you're only one step away From getting out of the eye of the storm Eye of the storm You're one step away From falling off the edge It's messing with your head It's making you forget That you're one step away From conquering the pain From overcoming darkness When fear's in the way You're only one step away From breaking down the walls you made The walls you made and I know it's hard to move on I know it's hard to let go But you're only one step away Don't let it bury you, oh I know you're running from a tidal wave You can't ignore I know you're trapped inside a hurricane In the eye of the storm But you're only one step away From breaking down the walls you made The walls you made and I know it's hard to move on I know it's hard to let go (I know it's hard to let go) I know it's hard to move on I know it's hard to let go But you're only one step away From getting out of the eye of the storm Eye of the storm Don't let it bury you!

Father, can you hear me? How have I let you down? I curse the day that I was born And all the sorrow in this world Let me take you to the herding ground Where all good men are trampled down Just to settle a bet that could not be won Between a prideful father and his son Will you guide me now? For I can't see A reason for the suffering and this long misery What if every living soul could be upright and strong? Well then I do imagine There will be sorrow Yeah, there will be sorrow And there will be sorrow no more When all soldiers lay their weapons down Or when all kings and all queens relinquish their crowns Or when the only true messiah rescues us from ourselves It's easy to imagine There will be sorrow Yeah, there will be sorrow And there will be sorrow no more There will be sorrow Yeah, there will be sorrow And there will be sorrow no more Yeah, there will be sorrow Yeah, there will be sorrow And there will be sorrow no more

If I could face them If I could make amends with all my shadows I'd bow my head and welcome them But I feel it burning Like when the winter wind stops my breathing Are you really gonna love me when I'm gone? I fear you won't I fear you don't And it echoes when I breathe 'Til all you'll see is my ghost Empty vessel, crooked teeth Wish you could see And they call me under And I'm shaking like a leaf And they call me under And I wither underneath in this storm I am a stranger I am an alien inside a structure Are you really gonna love me when I'm gone? With all my thoughts And all my faults I feel it biting I feel it break my skin, so uninviting Are you really gonna need me when I'm gone? I fear you won't I fear you don't And it echoes when I breathe 'Til all you'll see is my ghost Empty vessel, crooked teeth Wish you could see And they call me under And I'm shaking like a leaf And they call me under And I wither underneath in this storm I feel it And they call me under And I'm shaking like a leaf And they call me underneath to this storm

Oh girl we are the same We are young and lost and so afraid There's no cure for the pain No shelter from the rain All our prayers seem to fail In joy and sorrow my home's in your arms In world so hollow It is breaking my heart In joy and sorrow my home's in your arms In world so hollow It is breaking my heart Oh girl we are the same We are strong and blessed and so brave With souls to be saved And faith regained All our tears wipe away In joy and sorrow my home's in your arms In world so hollow It is breaking my heart In joy and sorrow my home's in your arms In world so hollow It is breaking my heart In joy and sorrow my home's in your arms In world so hollow It is breaking my heart In joy and sorrow my home's in your arms In world so hollow It is breaking my heart And my home's in your arms And it is breaking my heart My home's in your arms And it is breaking my heart
