lyrics

Silence to mourn
A star was not born
Won’t you make way
For glory and fate?
I’m sorry I’m old
And so tired of hope
I can’t cease the day
No time for today

By design
Every second is a waste of time
And high hopes
You think I’m so
Delusional
One day you’ll know you have always been wrong
Is it too late to be myself?
Dead albatross hits the ground
Another empty shell

Glorify-me
In your presence
By the blood red sea
Resignedly waiting
It’s my throne what I claim
Renounce it for me
Raised above shallow graves
Resign and retreat

Delphi dead wrong
A covenant you broke
My summer’s play
My calling is belated
Should Saturn return
And devour his son?
The burden of grace
For public display

By design
Every second is a waste of time
And high hopes
You think I’m so
Delusional
Always relying on the kindness of ghosts
Is it too late to be myself?
I want a better world
But not for every one

Chorus

Let me be what I will be
Unbury me, enlighten me
Respect me for what I am about to become
Three wasted wishes
Co-star bereavement
Rejected gold
Forever unknown
