Symphony X - When All Is Lost Lyrics
I believe... Nothing ever comes to light -Chasing shadows in the nightIn a starless sky and I wonder whyI believe... We will never find a way -That darkness lights the dayWe never question why, still I wonder why?I close my eyes lost in a memoryJust like a candle in the windWhat could have been, with just one kiss goodbyeYou spread your wings to flyFar away, somehow, someday you will understandI hope you'll understand... somedaySilent pictures speak like ghosts in the machineHaunting my reflection in the frameChasing down the hopeful child inside of meWhere'd it all go wrong and who's to blameWe pass the time awayWith empty lives, the laughter diesIs this all we have to show?Is this all they'll ever know? Can they find their way?What went wrong? Where have all the heroes gone?Trading futures for a song we gave awayThinking only of myself, I forged aheadNo regrets, no apologiesBitter tears reward the life that I have ledA world of lies brings me to my kneesI took the road with every twist and every turnThe words of wisdom is the lesson never learnedLose your fear and free your soul orThe mysteries of life you'll truly never knowYou'll never knowIs this all we have to show?Is this all they'll ever know? Can they find their way?What went wrong? Where have all the heroes gone?Trading futures for a song we gave awayJust gave it away... I close my eyes, lost in that memoryLike a candle in the windWhat could have been, with just one kiss goodbyeYou spread your wings to fly far awayI hope you'll understand one dayWe pass the time awayWith empty lives the laughter diesAnd the colors fade fade awayIs this all we have to show?Is this all they'll ever know? Can they find their way?What went wrong? Where have all the heroes gone?Trading futures for a song we gave awayWhat went wrong?Where have all our heroes gone?Trade our future for a song, We gave it all away...
