From Broken Vessels Lyrics - Orphaned Land

Unto this world I was born - innocence scorned 

Oaths were broken and pain bestowed - innocence mourned 

Trust betrayed, smiles were faked 

Desire turned hate, faces of loved ones are long decayed 

Alone in this world, alone and so cold 

Shiver in rain, my story unfolds 

A broken vessel, endless pieces of me 

Friends are now foes, those who betray 

Love's labour's lost, a true passion play 

Forked tongues drip with lies 

Serpents hold me down, I cannot fly 

The dark within my eyes 

Saint I'm not 

Pure in mind and thought 

Masks I wear 

In this stage we share 

Will we ever bare 

These fears and hopes within one and all? 

Cracks they show 

In the mirrors of my soul 

When I break 

Why do they all forsake? 

Is life but a mistake? 

Why do they smile when I fall apart? 

Go! Pick your self up, 

You are the end, now the chapter is done 

Cry as you might to the gods you adore 

They hear you not, as they never before
