Elysium Lyrics

All the years gone to waste
Are nothing to the tears I taste
We all need a friend to guide us
Life is hell when you're alone

A river running from your eyes
We're all searching for a prize
Caught between a life's addiction
Bordering a crucifixion

Yet still I'm amazed and I have to gaze
As the sun sets today, sets fire to my pain
And I must believe as you say these words to me
I'll take another risk, it's all that I know

All I have witnessed in my life
Don't let forgiveness walk on by
Pay the price for the things we do
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side
Still I find a reason to believe

Black clouds gather from the past
Release me from the stone I cast
Wonder stands in front of me now
I can see such beauty inside you

Only made of skin and blood
Hold on to the things we love
Walk the line, but walk it straight
Elevate yourself to new horizons

Yet still I'm amazed and I have to gaze
As the sun sets today, sets fire to my pain
And I must believe as you say these words to me
I'll take another risk, it's all that I know

All I have witnessed in my life
Don't let forgiveness walk on by
Things we do to the ones we love
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side

All I have witnessed in my life
Don't let forgiveness walk on by
Things we do to the ones we love
Elysium, that's where I'm bound
Where I'm lost, where I am found
Keep you close to my side
Still I find a reason to believe

Don't forsake me now
Don't leave me on my own
Need you more than I can say
So afraid to feel this way
