[Intro]

Gah


[Verse 1]

Fluctuate with waves bending on the threshold of glory

Changing shape inside an ocean filled with my deepest desires

Following the siren's call from every direction

To show me what I am, a passenger in a foreign land


[Chorus]

Astray and void of purpose

I've wandered aimlessly

The flames beyond the surface

Now guiding me, ah


[Post-Chorus]

To set me free


[Verse 2]

Searching for a moment of clarity

To bring me towards the future that I was destined to live, oh

Shedding my disguise, I realize I am desensitized by all the cries to compromise

A life I have visualized through bleeding eyes immobilized by the turning tides


[Bridge]

And how long must I keep on reaching

For worlds beyond my grasp?

And how long will my heart stay beating

Before collapse?

Before collapse

Before collapse


[Guitar Solo]


[Pre-Chorus]

All that I wanted is part of me at last

No longer haunted by demons of my past


[Chorus]

Astray and void of purpose

I've wandered aimlessly

The flames beyond the surface

Now guiding me

Through darkened waters, I'm torn asunder

By all that I choose to be

Embrace my every burden

To set me free, ah


[Outro]

Guided by flames above the surface

Now justified, I accept my purpose
