The moments in between

The moments in between the words I hear you speak
Desolate and clear, leave me feeling weak
And I just want to see a beautiful world in my dreams
But all I see is me in the center of all I see

Now I feel like a constant in a world that is fading
All I've been taught to recall simply fails to persuade me
The truth tends to sting while it heals
And the only way back is screaming the words

Oh my God, what have I become?
I feel this fire burn
Burn till' I'm undone, never to return
Oh

I remember when the wind brought heaven's scent
And stars that filled the sky drew a line between you and I

Oh my God, what have I become?
I feel this fire burn
Burn till' I'm undone, never to return

Lift up your voice loud
I declare myself this hour
Simply dust that's entrusted with such a peculiar fire

Oh my God, what have I become?
I feel this fire burn
Burn till' I'm undone, never to return

There's nothing like living asleep, it's some hazy dream
Then your eyes open see what they never see
Oh the first time that my gaze fell upon this place
How I shudder to think what I've become
