The First Noble Truth Lyrics - Shadows Fall

As reality washes away 

The faded memories of daylight 

This is my escape, realization of my mind's own deceit 

Perception slips away lulled into a fools paradise 

Words mislead again the agony of imaginary 

Sins and fears, truth of suffering 

Buried dreams that shadow me 

I feel it's all been wasted 

(Dreams that shatter me) 

Break my dreams to free my soul 

Because I won't even notice 

(Dreams to free my soul) 

Disintegration of the ego with this mind creates 

False idea of self the cessation of continuity 

And becoming true enlightenment 

Buried dreams that shadow me 

I feel it's all been wasted 

(Dreams that shatter me) 

Break my dreams to free my soul 

Because I won't even notice 

(Dreams to free my soul) 

Someone free me from heaven torn asunder 

Full of empty promises to be there if I wonder 

(Alone and wandering) 

Will not remain enslaved 

This world's transparency, I see right through 

I walk alone 

As reality washes away 

The faded memories of daylight 

This is my escape realization of my mind's own deceit 

Perception slips away 

Buried dreams that shadow me 

I feel it's all been wasted 

(Dreams that shatter me) 

Break my dreams to free my soul 

Because I won't even notice 

(Dreams to free my soul) 

Someone free me from heaven torn asunder 

Full of empty promises to be there if I wonder 

(Alone and wandering) 

Extinction of thirst, extinction of desire 

Extinction of hatred, extinction of illusion 

This is absolute
