EVERGREY LYRICS

1. Save Us

We were out of control
We got lost when we stopped to feel
Our inside's bleeding fear
Save us
Fell in love with a story
But its words were never about us
Now we're drowning in trenches
That we've been digging for ages

Hey! Save us!
Hey! Save us!

'Cause we are wrong to feel
Like our hearts have all the time we need
Save us
We must go on and dream
Save us
Save us

We've lost all control
Fallen in holes
Our hearts forged in the darkness
And in the cold to fit the molds we are chasing
And these worlds we're creating
We fell in love with a story
But its chapters were never about us
We lost our identity traces
And all we fought for is wasted

'Cause we are wrong to feel
Like our hearts have all the time we need
Save us
We must go on and dream
Save us
Save us

Save us, yeah

Hey! Save us!
Hey! Save us!

'Cause we are wrong to feel
Like our hearts have all the time we need
Save us
We must go on and dream
Save us
Save us

'Cause we all long to feel
We have all the time we need
Save us
We must go on and dream
Save us
Save us

2. Midwinter Calls

Just listen
It's not the sunrise, it is the light it brings
And it's not the tears, it's how the sorrow sings
It's not the solitude, it is the emptiness
It's not the fear, it's how the blood rushes
It's not the fleeing, it is the leaving
And that my inside remains unchanged

I shut all doors to summer
Opening the vaults to fall
Closing my mind to all color
Midwinter calls
Home!

We are lost, far from home
We never discovered a way to get closer
Our whole existence outlasts our fall

Confession
I never shone brightly and I never cried lightly
And it's not that I don't know the demons are fighting
I know them by the name as they reek of emptiness
Source is not the fear, it's the self-esteem it crushes
It's not the fleeing, it's the non-believing
And that my inside will never change, no
It is the doubting and simply being
These are the fears that I'm battling through

We are lost, far from home
We never discovered a way to get closer
Our whole existence outlasts our fall

We were tears in a storm
That froze in the fall
We've fallen too far

I shut all doors to summer
Opening the vaults to fall
Closing my mind to all colors
Midwinter calls
Home!

We are lost, far from home
We never discovered a way to get closer
Our whole existence outlasts our fall
To behold this, is it hopeless?
We are lost, far from home
The last of all

3. Ominous

The fire's gone and I'm still paying
I go on, I travel on
When I'm alone the heat is ominous

We ran all our lives
I ran all my life
A lonely run, nobody missed us
I hide!
My hideout was torn down coldly (Help me!)
Needed help, the fire spread (Help me!)

And at night's when darkness was closer
Just needed one of you to say out loud
That we all could come

The fire's gone but I'm still burning
Life is long I'll travel on
When I'm alone the heat is ominous

I will go on
My fire's still burning
To see new dawns
I'll carry on
I must believe
This heat will clear for me
And that the smoke will scatter

The fire's gone but I'm still burning
Life is long I'll carry on
When I'm alone the heat is ominous
The fire's gone but I'm still burning
Life is long I travel on
When I'm alone the heat is ominous

4. Call Out the Dark

We chose the night to be left alone
'Cause when life's a lie you want to leave the cold
For something that you know
Because the only thing I can trust is
Is that my inside will show me how to stay the same

You saw me, you feel it
So you know

That we call out the dark
We call out the dark
Call out the dark
We call out the dark

I collide
I swim against the tide
With no one to rely on
You're safe when you're alone
'Cause when you're on your own
The only thing you can trust is
Is that your inside
Is a place where you can stay

And that you feel it like I feel it
Then I can show you
I know the way out of fear and
And how to stop the bleeding

You call out the dark
We call out the dark
Call out the dark
We call out the dark

We call out the dark
We call out the dark
We call out the dark
We call out the dark

We were dark angels from the start
And we heard the call from the dark
Call out the dark
We call out the dark

(We call out the dark)

5. The Orphean Testament

It has taken a lifetime for me to reach here
And if you fled for your life just like me
You'd see it through my eyes
If you've lived in the shadows like me
It's the break of dawn you fear
And that the skies you know will clear
I thought I was heaven sent
I thought I was heaven sent
I know that you can't hear me
I know that you can't hear me

I was caught in the ripples of
A leaving light I must halt
'Cause when I found myself out of hope
I didn't know how to fall
I always thought I could rule it all
We never thought life could harm us
Beneath the ground and into the night
The ceaseless fall

I would travel through light years to see
Just a glimpse of you again
So the sense of you remain
Heaven's wept tears of gods fell from stars
My words painted the skies in blue
My hymns of sorrow echoes for you
Shadows fell and changed all light
Misfortune of the serpent bite
Colored all we knew into night
The price of a glance unjust
Turns all we know to dust
Life ended right before us

I was caught in the ripples of
A leaving light I must halt
'Cause when I found myself out of hope
I didn't know how to fall
I always thought I could rule it all
We never thought life could harm us
Beneath the ground and into the night
The ceaseless fall

Away from light
Set fire to life
Leave the day behind
We've set fire to life
Set fire, set fire to life

I was caught in the ripples of
A leaving light I must halt
'Cause when I found myself out of hope
I didn't know how to fall
I always thought I could rule it all
We never thought life could harm us
Beneath the ground and into the night
The ceaseless fall

6. Reawakening

I woke up cold
I'm tired to breathe the lows
I dropped this soul
Breathe out the old

I'm broken but breathing
I'm still alive but did a lot of bleeding
I'm open to reasons to feel alive

If we keep dreaming
Reshape this fear to hope
Reawakening
To become what you have lost

I wake up alone
Who am I, to me, to you, to anyone?
I don't know
I fought the cold
And the night
I hope these walls will hold

I wasn't broken I was fleeing
I thought I was free but who was I deceiving
I'm done hoping for freedom
I'm breathing life

If we keep dreaming
Reshape this fear to hope
Reawakening
To become what you have lost
If we keep dreaming of empires falling
And new kingdoms rising
To rule again
When the soul is asleep
It needs to be woken

I'm picking up the pieces
Over the fields of crying
Are you offering me shelter?
And am I really this asleep?
Are you offering me a way to my soul?
My lack of understanding is life-long
I don't understand me

Dreaming
Reshape this fear to hope
Reawakening
To become what you have lost
Dreaming
Reshape this fear to hope
Reawakening
Can't stay this asleep
I need to be woken
Need to be woken
Woken

7. The Great Unwashed

We stay out of sight
Forced away from light
We are the never seen
Seeking the lonely streets
We are innocent
Just belong to the once condemned
We hide falling so we die lonely

We are in on the lie
We got no place to go
Falling like leafs end of summer
Slowly withering
We are in on the lie
It got out of control
But we'll always unite
The great unwashed

Make me innocent
Erase my ignorance
This world has changed me
I'm starving in my chase to be free
But I'm not innocent
No, I'm not innocent
I'm a fallen fortress
A heartless portrait

We are in on the lie
We got no place to go
Falling like leafs end of summer
Slowly withering
We are in on the lie
It got out of control
But we'll always unite
The great unwashed

We'll always unite in the end
We're stronger than most just pretend
We never mind the dark

We are in on the lie
We got no place to go
Falling like leafs end of summer
Slowly withering
We are in on the lie
It got out of control
But we'll always unite
The great unwashed

We're the great unwashed
The great unwashed
The great unwashed
The great unwashed

8. Heartless

Feels like it deepens
As if I'm one of the heartless
'Cause I can't feel what my heart felt, ooh no
I can't find reasons to keep feeding this soul
This loss of control that I can't feel

Untie my belief's end
I'm tired of breathing you
Tired of dreaming
Of times that won't come true
So tired of feeling
I'm tired of feeling you
And all this time that I've lost
I've lost to you

I can't believe that
I stood by you for this long
I even knew the outcome, oh yeah
A heart finds treason
Less important than breaking
So when something's worth saving
It saves it

Untie my belief's end
I'm tired of breathing you
Tired of dreaming
Of times that won't come true
So tired of feeling
I'm tired of feeling you
And all this time that I've lost
I've lost to you

I was high on believing
I was high on believing you
So tired of feeling
So tired of feeling you
And what I used to be feeling
The one thing you never knew

Untie my belief's end
I'm tired of breathing you
Tired of dreaming
Of times that won't come true
So tired of feeling
I'm tired of feeling you
And all this time that I've lost
I've lost to you

Untie my belief's end
I'm tired of breathing you
Tired of dreaming
Of times that won't come true
So tired of feeling
I'm tired of feeling you
And all this time that I've lost
I've lost to you

9. Blindfolded

I need something to believe in
And need something more to start seeing
That this life that I'm weaving
Start to feel less deceiving
I need to recall

It is a miracle to free yourself from chains
'Cause failure's imminent and life can't change to
Something more beautiful, even acceptable
We need to open up our eyes and leave the
Dark nights coming
We are lost in fragile moments
Falsehood, soulless
We run through this blindfolded

I need something to start feeling again
And something more to start believing in me
And this time that I'm weaving
I'll make sure all ends are meeting
I'll need it

It is a miracle to free yourself from chains
'Cause failure's imminent and life can't change to
Something more beautiful, even acceptable
We need to open up our eyes and leave the
Dark nights coming
We are lost in fragile moments
Falsehood, soulless
We run through this blindfolded

It is a miracle to free yourself from chains
'Cause failure's imminent and life can't change to
Something more beautiful, even acceptable
We need to open up our eyes and leave the
Dark nights coming
We are lost in fragile moments
Falsehood, soulless
We run through this blindfolded
Hey, blindfolded
We run through this blindfolded
Hey, blindfolded
We run through this blindfolded

10. Wildfires

I've always been dreaming of new days
Where I'm stronger and I could feel less, think less
So silence could solve me

If the sun fell down
And burnt us down to the ground
Would the wildfires remind me of
That my heart's worn out
And I'm all out of fire
And if that's all that life is
I don't want to do this

'Cause all I do now is weakening
And all I've got to look forward to is truth
'Cause I wish I could feel less, think less, be less

If the sun fell down
And burnt us down to the ground
Would the wildfires remind me of
That my heart's worn out
And I'm all out of fire
And if that's all that life is
I don't want to do this

If the sun fell down
And burnt us down to the ground
Would the wildfires remind me of
That my heart's worn out
And I'm all out of fire
And if that's all that life is
I don't want to do this
