Lyrics
Heavy Hands
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Could it be the dream was meant to deceive
When everything in me
Bought that happiness would follow its lead
If only I believe
And now the choice is mine to let it die and hope I rise again
'Cause reveries of flight only left me questioning
This was everything I wanted
And I can't believe I'm given it up
This was everything I waited for
But this armor doesn't shine anymore.
The brightest sword sees no war,
Though broken, my blood is warm.
There's got to be something more.
Heavy hands holding the burden of change,
The only cost is pain.
The return is never promised in gain.
It's time for the blind to find their way.
And now the choice is mine to let it die and hope I rise again.
'Cause reveries of flight only left me questioning.
This was everything I wanted
And I can't believe I'm giving it up.
This was everything I waited for,
But this armor doesn't shine anymore.
The brightest sword sees no war,
Though broken, my blood is warm.
There's got to be something more.
Something more, something more,
Something more, something more,
There's got to be something more.
This was everything I wanted
And I can't believe I'm giving it up.
This was everything I waited for,
But this armor doesn't shine anymore.
The brightest sword sees no war,
Though broken, my blood is warm.
There's got to be something more.
