Becoming the Moth by The Nihilist Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2011

[Verse 1]
In this place where
Memories collide
I watch
The wake of shadows
Swept behind me
I watch and see

[Verse 2]
Prophecies fall
On deafened ears
I watch
Frail hands grasp
The bliss of nothing

[Chorus]
The light within me
Grows dim
As the days go by
To become
All the memories
Are the plague of my mind
I'm the one
Who will fade away
[Post-Chorus]
Close your eyes
For the last time
At peace
Amongst the dust
Close your eyes
For this last time
Lay to rest
Beyond the stars

[Verse 3]
Speak to me now
Whisper me secrets
Of a dying star

[Chorus]
The light within me
Grows dim
As the days go by
To become
All the memories
Are the plague of my mind
I'm the one
Who will fade away

[Post-Chorus]
Close your eyes
For the last time
At peace
Amongst the dust
Close your eyes
For this last time
Lay to rest
Beyond the stars
[Bridge]
The blur of time
Coming to an end
It is now that
I stand tall
I see the elixir
On the horizon
I fly into the light
Of an ever setting sun

[Outro]
(In this place where)
(Memories collide)
Under flashing street lights
(I watch)
As the world grows cold
Darkness envelopes my end
(The wake of shadows)
(Swept behind me)
I release the knots
That entwine my soul
(I watch and see)
