Kamelot - Memento Mori lyrics

Who wants to separate

The world we know from our beliefs

And who sees only black and white

Distinguish loss from sacrifice

Some day we may come to peace

With the world within ourselves

And I will await you

Until I close my eyes

Close my eyes

Close my eyes

When your time has come

You know you'll be lonely once again

And the final winter comes to us all

Life is treacherous

But you're not the only who must pretend

We're a second in time

We're the last in the line

Of the prey that walks the earth

Good and evil combined

I am the god in my own history

The master of the game

I may believe if she would come to me

And whisper out my name

Sometimes I wonder where the wind has gone

If life has ever been

Sometimes I wonder how belief alone

Can cut me free from sin

When you close your eyes

Mementos of summer retrieves your mind

Like a drizzle afternoon cleans the air

When the winter blows

You're glad you remember you really tried

And it comes to an end

Even winter... life fall

And we all have our beliefs

Pray for mercy for all

I am a man without a mystery

The deal is done within

I will embrace the coldest winter breeze

And pay for every sin

Victoria, non praeda

Memento mori

Una voce... volo, non valeo

Dulce et decorum est

Pro Patria mori

Memento mori

So subservant in your embrace

No more denial

No run away

This is the final

My last recall

And that's the price for what we learn

The more we know the more we yearn

Cause we're so alone

I am a man without a mystery

The deal is done within

I will embrace the coldest winter breeze

The journey can begin

I'm still the god in my own history

I still believe that she will come to me

And whisper out my name

Some day we will come to peace

And reach beyond behind the lies

And I will await you

Until I close my eyes
