Through The Looking Glass

I can feel the sands of time

Passing through the hourglass

And it shimmers in my eyes

As I linger in the wake

As eternity escapes

I begin to realize

We'll walk a thousand miles just to see for ourselves

Look behind our eyes

Find our hell

And in the light of the sun we go

Through rain and raging snow

To find the things we do not know

I will go

Never laying low

Just tell me how to breathe

And I will make it so

You must know

That this is not for show

And if you are not wise (it will)

Be your demise

Once I walked along a field

Another nightmare in my mind

And beheld the fearful symmetry

Everything was beautiful

Even things that were dead

And I surged with violent imagery

I walked a thousand miles just to see for myself

Looked behind my eyes

And found my hell

And in the light of the sun we go

Through rain and raging snow

To find the things we do not know

I will go

Never laying low

Just tell me how to breathe

And I will make it so

You must know

That this is not for show

And if you are not wise (it will)

Be your demise

We come to honor; to stand or die

To pass the hours of our lives

We burn the silence and all the lies

To fuel the fire inside our eyes

We all go

And in the light of the sun we go

Through rain and raging snow

To find the things we do not know

I will go

Never laying low

Just tell me how to breathe

And I will make it so

You must know

That this is not for show

And if you are not wise (it will)

Be your demise

Come to honor

Stand or die

Fuel that fire in your eyes
