Immortal Opus - Spectrum

 

Break down your denial
This fading light cannot hide you from me
Break through your short-sighted awareness
Of what is real and what is a dream

And now you look at me
What do you expect me to be?
A shattered mirror piece
Someone else to deceive?
I know you're scared to death
But you can trust me on this
I took your blindfolds off
So look at me

A shiver runs down your spine
We're only beginning to play
Make sure you hold really tigh
Onto the things that make you sane

Step out of the fire
A floating mist takes away you feel
Step up for the riot
It's a matter of time before they come hunting me

Now take a look at me
What do you expect me to be?
A pretty poisoned drink
Like the one you just spit?
I know you're scared to death
But you can trust me on this
I took your blindfolds off
So look at me

"A sort of compassion is taking over now
But my heart is once again about to die
Not too long before it hits the ground
As I take this last breath
You'll never be the same again"

Why you've come to disturb my sleep?
Why the sorrow towards me?
I'm a lost soul, I've been wandering for so long
I'm a phantom, I'm a spectrum
I'm all you're doomed to be
So behold what's left of me

I bid you
Farewell now
So long mortal man
Soon you will
Face the fate
Of being a spectrum
