[Verse 1]
Within me I feel so serene
A sensation like apathy
Yet, a contrast in every way
I went into the black
Never thought on coming back
And now it has changed me, forevermore
[Verse 2]
My world has seen a new dawn
A sense of harmony and bliss
Now nothing will or can destroy me
We’ll walk the road less travelled
Reaching a state of calm, tranquility
As snow falls on a winter’s night
Reliving a spring of placidity
Beauty in the changeful seasons
[Bridge]
But my heart craves more!
Will we weather all storms?
[Post-Chorus]
Joy was deemed to elude me
Now that it fills me
I start to doubt it
Could I breathe without the air you give me?
Or am I now complete, a whole?
[Chorus]
I feel my blood start to simmer inside
The gates have now opened up for me
No void will ever crack this will
Steadfast we stand
Exalted in Serenity
Valiantly prevailing in a landscape so gray
Winters and death have tolled us with pain
Taking command and forcing our hands
To follow the path to Serenity
As a sovereign of the mind
I can feel this creation becoming me
Is this horror a fear of the future
Or something darker, something more
Could one hone their art in isolation
Do I need solace for my passion?
[Chorus]
I feel my blood start to simmer inside
The gates have now opened up for me
No void will ever crack this will
Steadfast we stand
Exalted in serenity
Valiantly prevailing in a landscape so gray (So gray!)
Winters and death has tolled us with pain
Taking command and forcing our hands (Our hands!)
To follow the path to Serenity!!
[Chorus]
I feel my blood start to simmer inside
The gates have now opened up for me
No void will ever crack this will
Steadfast we stand
Exalted in serenity
Valiantly prevailing in a landscape so gray (So gray!)
Winters and death has tolled us with pain
Taking command and forcing our hands (Our hands!)
To follow the path to Serenity!!
[Outro]
I close my eyes, diving into the current
Unexplored motions drives me forward
With you I swim calmly ever more
But now I hold my breath
