If Not Here, Where? - Amoral

Ain’t seen a blue in who knows how long

still I’m searching for shade

As I lay down, my head on a stone

Taking in the price I paid

Met an old man, saw fear in his eyes

His words still ring in my head

I should’ve listened, I could’ve least tried

but chose to turn my back instead

Bring out the sun, paint with light

Bring out the sun, make it right

This place is not for you

It never was, but that you knew

Things will never be the same

If all you loved has changed

If all the good seems gone

you’ve only got yourself to blame

Home — look elsewhere

Help — none here

Hope — all gone

Faith — try fear

Words are worthless, acts define

You keep staring at the spaces between the lines

A lost child who thinks he’s running away

Ha!

You’re barely existing

All that remains are stories

scenes played out in a daydream

All that have cared now mourning

trying to set you free

Trace your steps all you want

it won’t take you back

Instead of the third act a fade to black

From the ashes of pride a scar is born

Nothing left from the roses now but the thorn

Getting close now, I can feel it

Soon I’ll reclaim control

The thing I fear most is to lose it all

All that remains are stories

scenes played out in a daydream

All that have cared now mourning

trying to set you free

(LEAD: Varon/Hukari)

This place is not for me

It never was, that now I finally see

Things can never be the same again

Everything I ever loved has changed

And all I saw as good seems now long gone

And there’s no-one left but myself to blame
