[Verse 1: Brian Fair]

As reality washes away the faded memories of daylight

This is my escape

Realization of my mind's own deceit

Perception slips away

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2: Brian Fair]

Lulled into a fool's paradise

Words mislead again

The agony of imaginary sins and fears

Truth of suffering

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Matt Bachand, Jon Donais]

Buried dreams that shadow me, I feel it's all been wasted

(Dreams that shatter me)

Break my dreams to free my soul because I won't even notice

(Dreams to free my soul)

[Verse 3: Brian Fair]

Disintegration of the ego with this mind creates

False idea of self

The cessation of continuity and becoming

True enlightenment

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Matt Bachand, Jon Donais]

Buried dreams that shadow me, I feel it's all been wasted

(Dreams that shatter me)

Break my dreams to free my soul because I won't even notice

(Dreams to free my soul)

Someone free me from heaven torn asunder

Full of empty promises to be there if I wonder

(Alone and wandering)

[Bridge: Brian Fair, Jon Donais]

Will not remain enslaved

This world's transparency

I see right through

I walk alone

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1: Brian Fair]

As reality washes away the faded memories of daylight

This is my escape

Realization of my mind's own deceit

Perception slips away

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Matt Bachand, Jon Donais]

Buried dreams that shadow me, I feel it's all been wasted

(Dreams that shatter me)

Break my dreams to free my soul because I won't even notice

(Dreams to free my soul)

Someone free me from heaven torn asunder

Full of empty promises to be there if I wonder

(Alone and wandering)

[Outro: Brian Fair]

Extinction of thirst

Extinction of hatred

Extinction of desire

Extinction of illusion

This is absolute
