As We Speak
As we speak the stable table turns
As we speak I should have known we're burned
And I guess I'll never never learn
Which of those faces
Who makes it all turn
As we speak I'm going deeper down
As we speak with a terrible sound
A feeble holy bastard son
Has it only just begun?
(I turn away) Fading out alone
Was a lifetime worth it all?
(Fading out) Fading out alone
As we speak we turn to stone
As we speak we turn to stone
As we speak a young man looses his mind
As we speak he kills what's next in line
A broken down mother asks herself why
Is this the end of her precious time?
As we speak... a conscience leaves without a trace
A silent departure to a silent place
What do we know
About the anger?
That starts to grow
Don't despair
Time will heal your torment
Don't you dare?
Spend your days in hell
So beware
Faith will bring you treason
While you stare...
(I turn away, turn away)
Was a life time worth it all?
(Fading out) Fading out alone
As we speak we turn to stone
(Turn away) Fading out alone
Was a life time worth it all?
(Fading out) Fading out alone
As we speak we turn to stone
(Turn away) Fading out alone
As a lifetime turns to stone!
