The Crüxshadows - The 4th Phase

If your love is marred by anger
Perhaps it wears a mask
And underneath those hollow eyes
A prisoner is cast
But grief will buy you nothing
And pity a little less
Open up the cage you carry and release yourself from this

Once we have a promise
Twice we have a curse
Three times is impossible
And four times even worse
Once we have an accident
Twice we have a fault
Three times is delinquent
And four times is the fall

I will stay here
If you believe
I will remain
If you believe

If time and tide refuse to wait
Remind them who they are
Each second drained from the hour-glass
Is born a distant star
And sorrow is not reaching out
Its only lying in your heart
So if you're sailing in unhappy seas
Bid the storms depart


When I sleep I dream in billions of colors...
Billions of colors, am I not real?

If time and tide refuse to wait
Remind them who they are
Each second drained from the hour-glass
Is born a distant star

When birds are bent in windy skies
The foolish ones will land
Live each moment with a savored taste
Look beyond the mind of man
But grief will buy you nothing
And pity a little less
Open up the cage you carry and release yourself from this

Is God a machine?
Like you, like me
Won't you tell me please
Is God a machine?
