After Forever - SEMBLANCE OF CONFUSION lyrics

As the light's becoming more fierce and the heat is melting your heart

The fire is awakening there's an ancient fear we all know

Ominous, misleading, get entangled in yourself

It's a feeling, creeps up, deep within

Sweet taste of innocence forgotten

A semblance of confusion

The strength I need is now flowing away

The choking feeling obstructs everything

So erratic in search for the truth

The pain is strong and persists

Silence was just a diversion to come out on the hard truth again

Leaving this world of illusions seen through the eyes of the innocent

Confronted with the infinity of chaos, forcing you to rearrange

When your litanies are unheard

Phantasm becomes coldly real

There's a thin line between the world of illusion and reality

A purgatoric trip through the mirrors within you

Unconsciousness beholden

Fear to face pass the border of pain, that burning contagion

To break, conquer and find lost beauty

Rinse, the penance is over

I know now where to find the answer

Confronting unconsciousness
