The Great Divide - Enchant

Twisting and turning, always yearning for something that is better than this

State of grace has left this place and I’m longing for the feeling of bliss

Can a man know love, or is it just a fairy tale

Like those in books told to a child?

Can his heart be filled with something more than broken dreams and tragedy?

Bridge the great divide

So this is what’s called life?

You scratch and scrape and barely escape all of the struggles and strife

And yet we all still dream of greater things

You have to lose to win

Round and round until we fall down then do it all over again

Gluttons for punishment, is this time well spent?

The great divide

Clawing and biting, all this fighting amounting to a big waste of time

Scaling the mountain to drink from the fountain is nothing more than an endless

climb

Can a man know peace, or is it just a pipe dream?

Yell and scream and bleed just to know you’re alive

Can his life be filled with something more than uncertainty and anxiety?

Bridge the great divide

Travel to the other side and not be terrified of what he might find

Somehow be purified and not be mystified by what he may find

So this is how it ends?

The travesty of serenity is it’s over before it begins

And still we just get by with our hopes held high

And with this final test

The good and the bad, the happy, the sad get put to an endless rest

Can you close your eyes knowing you did your best?

Can a man know God, or is he just a fantasy

For you and me, one great big lie?

Can his mind be filled with something more than evidence and common sense?

Bridge the great divide

Travel to the other side and be sanctified by what he may find

The great divide

The great divide
