Requiem for a White Rose Pt. 2

Stay alive
You'll only fall through
Your eyes
If you wander in too deep
To look
Around
And miss the exit.

Paint a perfect picture life.
Secrets to believe the lies.
Hold your ears and shut your eyes.
(Get) On your knees and start to pray.
(But nothing could release the light of day.)

(So) keep yourself
Away from the black
And sail
Through rivers of the mind
To find
A way
To rewind time.

Save a knife
You'll need it to reveal
The stains
Under brilliant sheets of light
They peel
Away
To see betrayal.

Paint a perfect picture life.
Secrets to believe the lies.
Hold your ears and shut your eyes.
(Get) On your knees and start to pray.
(But nothing could release the light of day.)

Live or die
The sun will rise and set
Behind
The hills beyond the place
Where you
Came from
And won't go back to.

Watch the waters melt the ice
And run down stony figures grey.
A fire burns you deep inside
Of all the things you didn't say.
(And you suspect you will not see the day.)

Think of who
You're leaving when you lie,
Too
(when) you say you're coming back
Then you spread
Your wings
To fall ten stories.
