A Thousand Winters - Burnt by Past

Burnt by Past


Like rotten, torn dresses
Hiding yourself and your memories
You're leaving, them all behind

Like your bed, cold, empty
Those trees won't let you see the sun
You're hiding, from what you've done

In your eyes, your whole life
has, been, a failure
your days, burnt by past

Get over your conscience, and you'll see,
the fragments of your past lives,
lost memories, forgotten, that
will never be found

Get over your memories, can't you feel (your enemies, can't you see)
the burning pain from your past, (they're coming straight from
your mind)
deny it, and you will, be (realize it, and you won't, be)
forever lost in

This worthless society, (Burnt by past)
result of years of treason (to live's to suffer)
neverending pain comes from (to be forgotten)
knowing, the fault is all yours (doesn't mean forgiven)

Now (I cannot)
time to recall

No matter what I do my past' still haunting me and always will

Your eyes (reflecting)
What you've done
to become
an empty soul

Get over your conscience, it's all done,
like broken glass through your heart,
those past lives, forgotten, will
be buried in time

Get over your memories, what you see (your effort, to be free)
is just another error (is just another error)
the knowledge, of what you've, done (the knowledge, of what you've, done)
will lead you to get

lost in this tangle of dreams (Burnt by past)
denial is the reason (to live's to suffer)
understanding what has been (to be forgotten)
won't save, this useless future (doesn't mean forgiven)

Eternal, shall be your pain

Flowing, like a shadow, moving, like a mountain
In your mind, like a wave eroding, from your silent throne
You travel through shallow plains deep in your void
Your prayers devouring, my world

With your hands carving rain sculptures inside me
All those dreams, you see, were never too real
Keep digging my past with your frantic void
All I've been is gone, now I'm lost forever here

Your mind's, becoming my eyes I see through your past lives
I know that to live's to suffer
But forgiveness won't come with oblivion I know
I'm still looking for it
Forgotten like you

(Wash away all your pain burning inside me,
could it be? your dream is my past
but forgiveness won't come and I know that well
as I seal this door
all my past will never be)
