Forever In Time
Praying Mantis
Taking for granted i made the mistake
That the heavens can wait
You were my creator of soul and heart
Now i live in your wake
Maybe i’ll be forgiven one day
But by whom i don’t know
Deserving this punishment now because i do
And this sentence so slow
Hallowed and be thy name
Seeking the road of redemption
Reach for the gods in vain
Guilty of love and temptation
Can i tell you know?
Can i tell you how i feel?
How my world has turned to darkness
In this winter here in my soul
The clouds that won’t hide away
The rain in my eyes
Forgive me i cannot pretend anymore
How we failed to hear your cries
Running away i have nowhere to hide
Searching for peace in my mind
These old memories how they haunt me now
I know this peace i’ll never find
Hallowed and be thy name
Seeking the road of redemption
Reach for the gods in vain
Guilty of love and temptation
Can i tell you know?
Can i tell you how i feel?
How my world has turned to darkness
In this winter here in my soul
Take away the pain
Take away the sorrow now
Now i’ll hold you in my mind and heart
Nothing more can be real
Forever in time
