Symbolic Virtue
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.
I cannot sleep through endless hours
I cannot breathe the thoughts devour
I cannot weep through lost desire
An image burns into the fire
We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow, yearn tomorrow
To death’s symbolic virtue
We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow down that long road
To death’s symbolic virtue
With fingers clenched the dread empowers
In our lament, the menace towers
Into fragments the bridge has fallen
Gods orders breached, a will is calling
We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow yearn tomorrow
To death’s symbolic virtue
We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow down that long road
To death’s symbolic virtue
(To death’s symbolic virtue)
We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow yearn tomorrow
To death’s symbolic virtue
We’re hollowed, through sorrow
We follow down that long road
To death’s symbolic virtue
