Pale Divine - Consequence of Time Lyrics

Always moving forward
By perpetual design
Can't avoid the outcome
Even if we try

Youth is wasted on the young
So the elders say

Some will go the distance
While others fade away
An underestimated force
Too powerful to tame

Youth is wasted on the young
So the elders say

Youth is wasted on the young
So the elders say

Time will tell the course we take
Along the way
Along the way

Outside my window
I hear the children play
Their lives have just begun
As mine fades away
Feels so cold
so cold

Return to earth, into ash
By the gardens cold moonlight
The looming shadows would take the life that was mine
The consequence of time

To defy your will and suffer alone
The only way out

I see into the haunting silence
The illusions behind your eyes
Of hopes and dreams all forsaken
Never to be realized
The consequence of time

To escape your eyes that follow in dream
The void of the abyss stares into me
To defy your will and suffer alone
The only way out

Return to earth, into ash
By the gardens cold moonlight
The looming shadows would take the life that was mine
The consequence of time
Suffer the consequence of time
