Viridity - Sentinel Lyrics

Sleep is no relief when all my dreams are filled with worst case premonitions
Despite my prayers and pleas we have been dealt with the most cruel of life's afflictions
Buried beneath in the depths of the ocean
Memories are waves that keep passing you by
You have been sentenced with god as my witness
To spend all your days in the cage of your mind
These are the early signs
Of a decay that you cannot see
All the symptoms suggest you'll be fine
But in reality your trapped in your mind
These words are a dedication to the man that you've always been
The creator gave life to the earth, the destroyer has swung his blade
Hanging on by the edge of a knife, holding on to the faces you love
This darkness has come from above, our resistance will come from within
This diagnosis has broken my spirit
I hope and I pray that you beat this disease
When this infliction takes hold and it kicks in
I hope and I pray you remember my face
These are the early signs
Of a decay that you cannot see
All the symptoms suggest you'll be fine
But in reality your trapped in your mind
I never wanted to watch you burn
I never wanted to watch you burn
I never wanted to watch you burn
I never wanted to watch you burn
How do I stimulate your senses
Lift an eternal curse
And bring back the man I wanted to be
It destroys me day by day
That theres nothing I can do and you'll forget my name
Everything that I've become
Everything that you have done
Has defined me but
Nothing I say can rebuild
Tell me that you never will ever lose who you are
Life lines lead to the end
