Ascension Lyrics

Ascension (part III)

The time has come to take a stand
To leave the past behind
A beauty queen, still in her teens
So anxious for what she'll find
She's ready for the industry
She's ready for the lie
She left before the break of dawn
She never said goodbye

Is she asleep or living in
A paradise of lies
She's dancing still on broken glass
She knows, yet she denies

A stranger in the strangest lands
Her solace in a dream
Reality, now she finds out
Was never as it seemed
When truth becomes reality
When dreams become a lie
A fallen angel spreads her wings
Descending from the sky

Is she asleep or living in
A paradise of wicked lies
She's dancing still on broken glass
Knows the truth, yet she denies

She has been waiting, contemplating
Speculating, truth or lie?
Time has come to make decisions
Welcome home, or kissed goodbye
O Lord, give me inspiration
Don't let my fear of death obscure the dreams
I've lived in perfect isolation
The night is closing in and soon I will feel
Eternal sleep, lifeless death surrounding me
Eternity, spread your wings and fly with me

O Lord, give me consolation
I now realize my time has come
So cold the tears falling down my face
So red the rose dying on my grave
