The Phantom Agony Lyrics - The Phantom Agony - Epica

[I. Impasse of Thoughts] 

I can't see you, I can't hear you 

Do you still exist? 

I can't feel you, I can't touch you, 

Do you exist? 

The Phantom Agony 

I can't taste you, I can't think of you, 

Do we exist at all? 

[II. Between hope and despair] 

The future doesn't pass 

And the past won't overtake the present 

All that remains is an obsolete illusion 

We are afraid of all the things that could not be 

A phantom agony

Do we dream at night 

Or do we share the same old fantasy? 

I am a silhouette of the person wandering in my dreams 

Tears of unprecedented beauty 

Reveal the truth of existence 

We're all sadists 

The age-old development of consciousness 

Drives us away from the essence of life 

We meditate too much, 

so that our instincts will fade away 

They fade away 

What's the point of life 

And what's the meaning if we all die in the end? 

Does it make sense to learn or do we forget everything? 

Tears of unprecedented beauty 

Reveal the truth of existence 

We're all pessimists 

Photos 

Teach me how to see and free the disbelief in me 

What we get is what we see, the Phantom Agony 

[III. Nevermore] 

The lucidity of my mind has been revealde in new dreams 

I am able to travel where my heart goes 

In search of self-realisation 

This is the way to escape from our agitation 

And develop ourselves 

Use your illusion and enter my dream...
