(Psychoparalysis) - Looking Back to Tomorrow

White and black
Blind spots in consciousness
They only see
What they are told to believe

Mountains crack
Within one's mind
Knowing what comes
As time passes by

Looking back to tomorrow
Looking back to tomorrow

Digging their own graves
By giving birth to life
Escaping the shadows
By living in the deepest night
It's not the same
Though nothing has changed
Living a decline
In a specious progress

An act of fate alters
The outlook on life
The borders of our perception
Are bursting
as we accept ourselves
as we truly are

“Life itself is only a vision
A dream...
Nothing exists save empty space”
The angel said and continued
”And you...
And you are but a thought”

Yet I feel you

Solo: Jori Alhonen

Take a look
Once again
But this time
Don't let your hopes
Dazzle your sight

Read the signs
Between the lines
Will regained
When washed over
By a wave of anger

Looking back to tomorrow
A foresight no one wanted to see
Staring at your drift of sorrow
Not weeping their loss
Yet drowning in misery

And our world burns

Looking back tomorrow
Looking back tomorrow

Digging their own graves
By giving birth to life
Escaping the shadows
By living in the deepest night
It's not the same
Though nothing has changed
Living a decline
In a specious progress

Gaze from above
The ways of old, the stories untold
Still shaking from the blow
As the foresigns came to be

Weigh down
The burden of knowledge
What you got is all it takes
