Telltale Notion

In time these majestic doorways will crumble

Insidious faces carving their names in stone

Desperate not to be forgotten, a token of their vanity

Nothing but a little lamplight in the coming storm

To digress is emptiness

No perspective and no greater matter at hand

♪

No, this is not the end of the world

But you can see it from here

Awaiting it in prospect of expiration

♪

Slow-motion progress led by time-lapse machines

An eclipse so sudden, yet crawling in on us for ages

To cover up this deceit

The air is filled with the smell of fear and distress

It is all too emblematic for this lasting state of emergency

♪

A cause so vain, admonitions born from guilt

Living in a constant crisis, we're all caught in a loop

This is not a tell-tale notion

This is fiction, a mere equation

Until one day you see with unclouded eyes

the genuine rapture of human nature

Sometimes I feel like the end of the road is just one step away

Yet it is only another chapter to be told in time
