Born of Osiris - Cycles of Tragedy Lyrics

Back and forth, the face-to-face
Space between the emptiness
We don't always radiate a sense of fate
But it's the place I long to be

I believe it's my destiny
A crater laid empty
Seems to increase
Stable safety rears its pretty face
Afraid of the failure
Afraid of the pain

Inside the back-and-forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny
Inside the back-and-forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny

Careful brain I creep right past you
My actions test your security
I'm not afraid of your healing approval (your healing approval)
Snapped in half, broken in two

Inside the back-and-forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny
Inside the back-and-forth
Between the emptiness
Is the place I long to be
Another shot at destiny

Back and forth, the face-to-face
Space between the emptiness
We don't always radiate a sense of fate
But it's the place I long to be

My eyes at times see the perfect picture
Yet I sacrifice
Solid ground and a balanced life
Cycles of tragedy
Cycles of tragedy
