lyrics

Chase the sun but it's going away
Lost in your memories, all in faded days
Trapped in a cage of what should it be
All nightmares are coming that won't let you be free

Passed the years, goodbye turned not so hard
Accepting the truth triggers the void inside
It's easy to deny and painful to face life
I chased the sun when I was surrounded by dark

adversity rains all over, fair, unfair, it neverminds
Screaming from the void when myself was blind
I prayed every day and found no more answers
I moved forward, it's late to turn back

I fought so many times against my unswerving fate
Defeated and empty, I remain and await
Tired in this epoch of indifference
The purpose was washed away, all lost its sense

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

They take my mind is too late for me now
My self grows in apathy, it turns me raw
Condemned and numbered, like everyone else
The things that make me special make my brain melt

Innocence is gone, rotten in a desperate soul
hedonism makes my mind mature until it takes control
All my morals and beliefs I once time ago trust
Is used against me, until the mysticism turns into dust

Eventually, this turned a world of cliches
Stupid, arrogant, all I know is what sacred hand says
Now I think who betray me next and how I afront this
God is enough, you got me praying on my knees

A small bright appears in front of me
calling me to go even when I don't know what it could be
I've tried to reach until I can see the light
Forced by the arrogance that is my only right


It moves me to my destiny, it moves me to my grave
Praying to divine, imagining that I could be saved
Besieged by my own shade and darkness of the world
It enveloped taking my life to the unknown

My life was short, but my death gonna be eternal

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I whispered - for the gone days
(I chased the sun so many times, I was never able to see the moon)
It drained me - I'm nothing but the dust
(Foolish, I've thought I've lived in eternal noon)
The essence and taste - never turn back
(My breath started to get weak every time I wished to give one more false step)
Thoughts of thoughts - in dissonance
(My knowledge is dying and is not so much )

Chase the sun but it's going away
Lost in your memories, all in faded days
Trapped in a cage of what should it be
All nightmares are coming that won't let you be free

Passed the years, goodbye turned not so hard
Accepting the truth triggers the void inside
It's easy to deny and painful to face life
I chased the sun when I was surrounded by dark

adversity rains all over, fair, unfair, it neverminds
Screaming from the void when myself was blind
I prayed every day and found no more answers
I moved forward, it's late to turn back

I fought so many times against my unswerving fate
Defeated and empty, I remain and await
Tired in this epoch of indifference
The purpose was washed away, all lost its sense

It moves me to my destiny, and to my grave
Praying to divine, imagining I could be saved
Besieged by my own shade and darkness of the world
It enveloped taking my life to the unknown

All for I once fought is lost now
but I haven't regretted what is gone
Breaking my vows and tore my dreams
My body will be ravaged by the streams

by the streams...

So try to chase what you know is going away, the funniest prank you'll ever see
Private in comfort, and walking with no sense, a whole life thinking I was a serious man
So everything I've ever felt is now lost in time
My self and my trace are disappearing like tears in the rain,
Now I only wait for my die, it's the only promise that remains,
and the only fact
And after my wandering, it's my only hope and comfort
Anyway, who needs the light when you're blind?
I never saw the beauty of the night,
until I obtained the sun,
so ...

Chase the sun at night
