Nightfall

Fortune smiled and took him by the hand

You'll never have to worry

You'll never reach an end, she said

Times stretching you thin but the answers just around the bend

Now patiently waits his turn to discover a truth

Behind doors newly opened to him

It seems that nothings promised

Another act yet still the same page he finds himself

Right back where he began

Only now with pockets worth of empty promises in his hands

Pin it all on your scapegoats

Oh how misleading

They're surely the ones who cost you

Now that your dues are paid

Let complacency be the fire for your regret

Retrospect seems so familiar

With a feeling of despair

Holding on to the ground

Until the feeling you're bound to

Falling off the surface disappears

Retrospect seems so familiar

With a feeling of despair

Holding on to the ground

Until the feeling you're bound to

Falling off the surface disappears

Traces leading us

To an ends that did not justify the means

When you losses are cut

Is it more than skin deep?

We've created a way out now

When you losses are cut

Is it more than skin deep?

We've created a way out now

Retrospect seems so familiar with a feeling of despair

Holding on to the ground

Until the feeling you're bound to

Falling off the surface disappears

He counted each and every grain that trickled down

But long since overdue was the accounting of his own

Wasted wishing a past could be undone
