Nothing Left To Say Lyrics - Singles - Fates Warning

I remember the endless longing 

That called inside of me, 

From fountains of expression, 

Trying to break free. 

Nothing left to say 

When the walls give way. 

Still, I can faintly recall 

The subtle purity 

Of youthful inspiration 

And insecurity. 

Nothing left to say, 

When the child finds his way. 

Pride, and the drive that started the dream, 

Turned, in time, to an endless obsession. 

Caught in a vicious circle of compulsion. 

Possessed by the goal and the possession. 

Desires bind the truth to secrecy, 

But behind the aspirations I see 

A life devoted to blind ambition. 

And a mortal man searching for eternity 

Behind the desires. 

And the wall that gave way. 

There's a forgotten cause, 

Consumed by the day, 

Behind the ambitions 

Of a child who found his way. 

There's a cold realization 

That our deeds die with the day. 

And behind the disguise 

Of a man with a cause, 

There's a child screaming. 

With nothing left to say, 

Paralyzed by inhibitions 

And indecisions, 

What once was a release 

Is now a prison.
