Epica - The Phantom Agony Lyrics
[I. Impasse of Thoughts]I cant see you, I cant hear youDo you still exist?I cant feel you, I cant touch you,Do you exist?The Phantom AgonyI cant taste you, I cant think of you,Do we exist at all?[II. Between hope and despair]The future doesnt passAnd the past wont overtake the presentAll that remains is an obsolete illusionWe are afraid of all the things that could not beA phantom agonyDo we dream at nightOr do we share the same old fantasy?I am a silhouette of the person wandering in my dreamsTears of unprecedented beautyReveal the truth of existenceWere all sadistsThe age-old development of consciousnessDrives us away from the essence of lifeWe meditate too much,So that our instincts will fade awayThey fade awayWhats the point of lifeAnd whats the meaning if we all die in the end?Does it make sense to learn or do we forget everything?Tears of unprecedented beautyReveal the truth of existenceWere all pessimistsTeach me how to see and free the disbelief in meWhat we get is what we see, the Phantom Agony[III. Nevermore]The lucidity of my mind has been revealed in new dreamsI am able to travel where my heart goesIn search of self-realisationThis is the way to escape from our agitationAnd develop ourselvesUse your illusion and enter my dream...
