the dystopian project - the utopian suite - (ascension, acceptance, decline) lyrics
(ascension)
when all seems to change
but still feels the same
what’s held deep inside
left hidden by pride
and the truth you find always coloured grey
gives reason to leave
the secrets you’ve never thrown away
so the shadows might grieve
turn the page on yesterday
empty words are all we ever say
take with one then give away
fighting hard to breathe
turning blind eyes for the sun
walk turns to run
tear the page of yesterday
with fear comes the pain
when you open up blame
eyes burn into you
while the chorus accuse
from doorways that never lead the way
and still you don’t leave
the secrets are begging you to say
why the shadows won’t grieve
turn the page on yesterday
empty words are all we ever say
take with one then give away
fighting hard to breathe
turning blind eyes for the sun
walk turns to run
tear the page of yesterday
turn the page on yesterday
empty words are all we ever say
take with one then give away
fighting hard to breathe
turning blind eyes for the sun
walk turns to run
tear the page of yesterday
(acceptance)
broken mirror
who is staring
back into your eyes
twisting turning
never ending
all for compromise
hidden meaning
conscious streaming
silence speaks your mind
live forever
trapped in splendour
servitude divine
soon they’ll see
opened up so life tears at me
(fall one by one)
forced to believe
torn apart so life can break me until
down and down they’ll go
clawing at the world to save them
(fall one by one)
down and down they’ll go
clawing at me to save…
sand will slip
though fingers grip
a sign of things to come
good intention
bares no mention
stripped of all you’ve done
counting hands
of vanishing friends
when these chips are down
what comes after
walls of laughter
falling one by one
soon they’ll see
opened up so life tears at me
(fall one by one)
forced to believe
torn apart so life can break me until
down and down they’ll go
clawing at the world to save them
(fall one by one)
down and down they’ll go
clawing at me to save…
(decline)
slowly turning eyes are burning
cursed as you walk by
mouths of gl-ss break at last
hands thrown towards the sky
pulling down all around are
hands that hold in place
all before is no more
a name to be erased
sold…you’ve sold
what you were for what you
hoped you would be
walk away, take what’s left
what they saw fit to leave
turn inside, it’s all you have
their puzzle’s missing piece
is what keeps you living
sold, you’ve sold
what you were for what
you hoped they’d be…
all this grace will be replaced
ascend, accept, decline
twisted truth a wasted youth
turn and leave behind
pulling down all around are
hands that hold in place
all before is no more
a name to be erased
sold…you’ve sold
what you were for what you
hoped you would be
walk away, take what’s left
what they saw fit to leave
turn inside, it’s all you have
their puzzle’s missing piece
is what keeps you living
sold, you’ve sold
what you were for what
you hoped they’d be…
(epilogue)
fragile hands that hold ideals stumble and fall
steel resolve to make them real is not always enough
through the fingers slip the dreams never lived at all
pyrrhic victories fill your lonely castle halls
(fall one by one)
soon they’ll see
opened up so life tears at me
(fall one by one)
forced to believe
torn apart so life can break me until
down and down they will go
clawing at the world to save them
(fall one by one)
down and down they will go
clawing at me to save
