The Emptiness From Which I Fed Lyrics - The Gallery - Dark Tranquility

Silence in shivering solitude 

Obligations pressure for all to bear 

All the pitiful answers, the innocent lies 

Can mere words fill 

The emptiness from which I fed? 

Be gone, oh, yielding evidence of greed 

Safe now in the other shore 

Behind the emptiness from which I fled 

Can silence be shared? 

If so, can the perception of silence 

Fit into the frame which is represent? 

The unity for which we stand 

The confines representing a timeless sacrifice 

No eye can of silence tell lie 

Silence, yet the absence of sound 

Does not feed me 

The essence of beauty alone 

Fall silent to lingering charm 

Brought forth be the sun 

Shed light on the emptiness 

What can be extracted from nothing 

What can be found within the emptiness 

Be gone, oh, yielding evidence of greed 

Safe now on the other shore 

Behind the emptiness from which I fed 

Brought forth be the errors of our ways 

As is denial so is contempt 

Introspective to all but one 

Tear apart the flames 

No eye can of silence tell lie 

How can I even begin 

The battle where no one wins? 

From answers I now flee 

Screaming out too no avail 

Have I become what for so long I've dread 

The missing pieces 

Must now be replaced 

What eyesight fails to grasp 

Is the emptiness from which I fled
