Horizon's End - "Forming Fantasies" (feat. Yannis Papadopoulos)
Can you see, can you feel the impossibility?
My soul from the inside out
Time flows backwards, paradox, upholding demons
and run, my charming mirrors
Faces on, faces off
Light and shadows terrorize
the mask you wear, the mask you are
Can this dark hall blend the truth with sweet oblivion
and take my breath away
Vulgar accusation of a new temptation
Woven trap, bloody pulp, choice and treason
There are men who choose to bow
and travel with identities unknown
Verbal confrontation with no expectation
It's your gift, your remorse, your dead reason
Forming fantasies on the privacy of dreams
Forming words based on others' thoughts
is a way of hiding
the secret that's stored in your memories
Sail the distant seas
and leave the docking for another day
Until our hands bleed
we'll till the soil
with mind ever vigilant
we'll face this mortal coil
Dig to find the roots of the world tree
that's glowing white
Take the seed and plant it
in my mind
Water it with tears it's so poetic
Don't you think
And when it grows tall and we'll be old
we'll sit beneath its branches
The dwellers in the darkness
The flame of hell it burns
For even myths and works of art
need to emit their worst
The villain, the hero, the sage and the fool
can all be aspects of me
With a key and a pen, words breed true
To make the most of idle time
Vulgar accusation of a new temptation
Woven trap, bloody pulp, choice and treason
There are men who choose to bow
and travel with identities unknown
Verbal confrontation with no expectation
It's your gift, your remorse, your dead reason
Forming fantasies on the privacy of dreams
Forming words based on others' thoughts
is a way of hiding
the secret that's stored in your memories
Sail the distant seas
and leave the docking for another day
Until our hands bleed
we'll till the soil
with mind ever vigilant
we'll face this mortal coil
