VICE & VIRTUE LYRICS

"Beneath Starry Skies"

Go back in time, go back in time

Your shadow filling guilt is bearing the scars
A rage deep within is shaking these walls
Oh logic seer, non-believer, all our innocence is lost
Arrogance is the cost, Arrogance is the cost

I am the motionless martyr [3x]
I am, I am
I am the motionless martyr [3x]
I am, I am

As the sand seeps through the hourglass
And my skin wrinkles
I’ll watch it all change around me
It keeps me awake
When did heaven become so cold?
When did heaven become so cold?

Then it hit me like the rushing water
Crashing over with waves of regret
It’s easier to believe in nothing at all

What the hell is this face in the mirror
Staring back at me in disbelief
Go back in time to see why everything changed
Looking over my life with regret
It’s easier to believe in nothing at all

I am the motionless martyr [3x]
I am, I am
I am the motionless martyr [3x]
I am, I am

Then it hit me like the rushing water
Crashing over with waves of regret
It’s easier to believe in nothing at all [2x]

The martyr burns for the sins of his people
The single mother cares for her child
The people work to overthrow the dictator
It's a change we haven't seen in awhile
A man apart will show the world how to love
A lost little girl finds her way back to the world

Mirror mirror on the wall
Can you tell if I’ve been lying at all
Mirror mirror can’t you see
The villain this whole time was me [2x]

Then it hit me like the rushing water
Crashing over with waves of regret
It’s easier to believe in nothing at all [2x]

Close your eyes
Accept the faith you so strongly despise
Keep me alive
Never ending consciousness it's plaguing my mind
I'm just fine, please listen when I say that I'm just fine
What I want is the touch but what you fear the most is the lust
Is the lust

Mirror mirror on the wall
