lyrics

Holy One

Holy one, they said to come to you
that you would know what I should do.
You lean back and softly sigh,
ask me what I think you know.
I admit that I have no reply,
so you tell me I should go. I should go.

Life’s a challenge at its best,
sadness overwhelming happiness.
The ones we love all pass away,
and there’s nothing we can do,
left to suffer day to day,
helpless without a clue. Without a clue.

We live days like we have control.
It’s a myth we’ve all been sold, all right.
But a moment can crash it down.
Every future withers without a sound.
All we had is gone.

Voices whisper at the back of our minds,
recall the plans we made over time,
futures filled with fantasies
while the present passed us by.
Then comes sad reality
that requires a whisper goodbye. Say goodbye.

Everything must come to an end.
It’s a fact we pretend’s just a lie.
We live as though it’ll last forever
until we have to admit everything dies.
We live a lie.

We live days like we have control.
It’s a myth we’ve all been sold, all right.
But a moment can crash it down.
Every future withers without a sound.
All we had is gone.

Holy one, I chose to come to you
to see if there was something I could do.
You said to search and sent me away
on a path I never found.
Now I know no matter what you say,
the future’s chaos bound, never sound.

Holy one, I came to you.
