In The Blink Of An Eye

(альбом: The Negative - 2021)

I've always know I am the guardian
Of moments of truth, each frame undeniable proof
Now this leviathan robbed me of my use
Like draining the fountain of youth
Sharpen the evidence, cut through the dream
Reality rived at the seams, the end is imminent
The raven it flies, I've seen what it sees

Nothing is left, expire the guest, premonition
Vision of death, is death even real?
Until it's revealed, our fate is concealed
Pits of fate all filled with mud
As it grabs hold, it will swallow every one of us

I have seen
The colors turn to gray
A fate you can't escape
The end set on display

All of the boundaries will break, nothing left in its wake
It will erase every one of us
And leave in its place the antithesis of
All that we understand to exist will be replaced
By the negative, deleting the past, forgetting what's been

What will there be if you survived to the other side?
What would you see in the remnants of the collide?
And with the difference I've seen in my vision
Of our preexistence and the new condition, I'm blind

I have seen
The colors turn to gray
A fate you can't escape
The end set on display
And I believe
The omen haunting me
Watching the decay
The whole world falls asleep
Never to dream

Pulling the string, breaking the seam
Ripping the page, burning away, harder to breathe
Drowning in ink deep as the sea
In a world painted black, there's nothing left to see

The end is nigh, darken the light in the sky
Gone in a blink of an eye
Kill the confines, envy the guise
Nothing is real, all we see is our lies
It's hard to find, veil it still covers my eyes
Don't know if we live or we die
The negative flies, passing the speed of the light
We're gone in the blink of an eye

I have seen
The colors turn to gray
A fate you can't escape
The end set on display
And I believe
The omen haunting me
Watching the decay
The whole world falls asleep
Never to dream
(Blink of an eye, gone in the blink of an...)
