Forever

[Verse 1] I see you design him locked inside A masterful deceptions got your eyes The character becomes you, loves you Break into that place and come alive All of the soldiers stand in line The hands of the clock have now aligned I've always been waiting for this moment Eternaly standing here in time The ink becomes your blood that races The book becomes your mud to play with But behind those eyes that swirl you Fuel him, feed him, treat him like that burning slave [Hook 1] Lost in the tide forever Looking for a way To return to you forever [Hook 2] Lost in the tide forever Looking for a way To return to shore forever [Verse 2] I see you arrange him locked away A tedious engagement night and day The character becomes him, loves him Breaks into that place he's kept at bay All of the pigments left behind The pages have all been left to die I've always been waiting for this moment Eternaly wrapped to his mind And if you want it, take it And if you don't forsake it But behind those eyes that swirl you Fuel him, feed him, treat him like that burning slave [Hook 1] [Hook 2] [Outro] We have not yet realized That history is a kind of scripture It has a sacred meaning We are reminded of a concept of [?] In which he points out that there are two selves Or two souls or two individualities inside each of us One of these is forever struggling toward the good And the other is constantly struggling towards The gratification of appetite Every individual has something in himself That is aspiring to union with the eternal Something that should transcend all limitations All material shortcomings This something that is striving for perfection [Hook 1] [Hook 2]
