Lyrics Unleashed (Live) - Epica

(Defining, time coming for me)
(Rescinding, my inspiration)
(Receding consciousness)
(Aaahh)

Back in the day I can recall that
My thoughts were unclouded and sage
There was no black
Staining the walls of my memories

Now there's a haze pushing me sideways
And leaving me nothing to gain
Taking me back
Locking me cold in disparity

Where was I meant to be?
I feel I'm lost in a dream
Long for the day I can be myself

When I'm free
When my sun has set
Release my soul forever
I'll have no regret
To be free
I'll exist again
No more lost endeavours
Nothing to contend
When I'm free

Color declines, all that defines me
Is falling away far behind
Nothing to keep me with the time
The here and now

Where am I meant to be
I feel I'm lost in a dream
Yearning again only to be myself
When I'm free
When my sun has set
Release my soul forever
I'll have no regret
To be free
I'll exist again
No more lost endeavours
Nothing to contend
When I'm free

(Cure me, free me, help me, see me)
(No more worry, no more losing)
(Save me, near me, help me, hear me)
(No more heartache, no misery)
(Cure me, free me, help me, see me)
(No more worry, no agony)
(Save me, near me, help me, hear me)
(We despair) No more heartache, no despairing)
(Cure me, free me, help me, see me)
((No repair) No more worry, no repairing)

Time is just a concept
And always the first thing to fade
Agony and weakness
Nothing we can ever evade
Years are cruel they break us
Bringing on decay and despair
Awareness and perception
Something we can never repair

(Freedom for me)
(Is all I'm really wanting, needing)
(Give me power to break out)
(I can't hold on for any longer)
(My time has come to end it all)

No one to blame
Fate's only random
It's nothing we'll ever explain
So it remains

Where was I meant to be
I feel I'm lost in a dream
Long for the day I can be myself free
When will I be unleashed
It's not the way it should be
Yearning again only to be myself

Free when my sun has set
Release my soul forever
I'll have no regret
To be free
I'll exist again
No more lost endeavours
Nothing to contend
When I'm free
