Magnum Opus by The Sleeping Anchorite Lyrics
[Part I]
I will not be a victim to this again
I'll peacefully walk away from the personal hell I've made
Rather than waiting for someone to get me out
We made stars shine
We gave it all we had
And though our time has ended
We loved as much as we can
There ain't anything left to say other than...
You were my magnum opus
You were my magnum opus
(All that i ever dreamed having )
In my arms
You were my magnum opus
You were my magnum opus
(All that I've ever needed)
In my arms
You were my magnum opus
You were my magnum opus
(All that I ever dreamed of holding in my arms)
You were my magnum opus
You were my magnum opus
(Everything that I ever dreamed)
In my arms
(Even though we gave everything that we had
Resistance to destiny is futile at best
But nothing can erase
Everything you were)
[Part II]
[Verse]
Back at the begining
I will leave this place alone
Wondering if there's anything in me
Worth fighting for
I will give my soul a break from limbo
And just decide to run away from you tonight
(run away from you tonight)
[Chorus]
You were my magnum opus
But I will break free from you today, you'll see
And I was your magnum opus
But I will break free from you today, you'll see
[Verse]
Life in solitude is better
Than suffering leeching on someone's soul
Those drunken nights you'll wish
To leave behind are so pathetically adored
They seem such a good alternative
To healthy ways of coping
With your loss but you'll end up on the floor
Crying out for whom you adore
And I still adore some parts of your soul
Crying for who you still adore
I still adore some parts of your soul
You're stuck in my mind ever since...
[Bridge]
And now we´re gone but not far away from here
We look back to see if the other looks back at us
Not quite willing cause pride has got it's grip on both
And I know you look back some days but I can't
Look back to you in the same way
[Chorus]
You were my magnum opus
But I will break free from you today, you'll see
And I was your magnum opus
But I will break free from you...
[Outro]
Even though we gave it everything we...
Resistance to destiny is futile at best
Even though we gave it everything we...
Resistance to destiny is futile at best
I will not be a victim to this again
I'll peacefully walk away from the personal hell I've made
Rather than waiting for someone to get me out
We made stars shine
We gave it all we had
And though our time has ended
We loved as much as we can
There ain't anything left to say other than...
You were my magnum opus
You were my magnum opus
(All that i ever dreamed having )
In my arms
You were my magnum opus
You were my magnum opus
(All that I've ever needed)
In my arms
You were my magnum opus
You were my magnum opus
(All that I ever dreamed of holding in my arms)
You were my magnum opus
You were my magnum opus
(Everything that I ever dreamed)
In my arms
(Even though we gave everything that we had
Resistance to destiny is futile at best
But nothing can erase
Everything you were)
[Part II]
[Verse]
Back at the begining
I will leave this place alone
Wondering if there's anything in me
Worth fighting for
I will give my soul a break from limbo
And just decide to run away from you tonight

[Chorus]
You were my magnum opus
But I will break free from you today, you'll see
And I was your magnum opus
But I will break free from you today, you'll see
