Feint by Epica

The very brightest candle of all
Has been extinguished

Smothered by those
Who could not bear to face reality

Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver
Every wave in the lake
Caused the porcelain to break
And I shiver...

The leftover tallow just doesn't contain
All the right answers

Under a sea of dust lies a vast wealth of wisdom

(As untouched snow turns red)
(Innocence dies)
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver
Every wave in the lake
Caused the porcelain to break
And I shiver...

This black page in history is not colourfast
Will stain the next
All what remains is just a feint
Of what was meant to be

This black page in history is not colourfast
Will stain the next
And nothing seems in life in dreams
Like what was meant to be
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver
Every wave in the lake
Caused the porcelain to break
And I shiver...
I shiver
