Hollow Decay - Upon The Frozen Trail Lyrics

Every day the same picture
I've watched the sun sail over familiar hills for so long
The wind lashing the trees as it always has

My vacant stare takes me over the clouded landscape afar
A dream of mountains so distant from my window
Its phantom frost gleams to the sunlight

A wasted hope burning the days gone by
For nights, the dreams are ever brighter
The horizon dawns an alluring sky
The path becoming never lighter

I've seen the failed and futile
A ghost casting an empty shadow
Reminders of the resolve that I must conquer

I know the path to reach you
The key to this prison lies before me
But can I muster the strength to reach out and take it

A wasted hope burning the days gone by
For nights, the dreams are ever brighter
The horizon dawns an alluring sky
The path, becoming never lighter

And the rain descends
Drowning the soul with thoughts and reality
And the picture fades
Shackles fasten, dragging me down
And the road scatters to dust
The dream does not wait for the idle
