Gravitational Lensing
by Solution .45· from For Aeons Past
[Music by Stefanovic/Alvestam, Lyrics by Stanne]
Into what goes on forever
Beyond perspectives lost
Kaleidoscope vision
Introspective display
What hides in plain sight
Force it into my head
Now is the only time
Hiding behind a lie
All I know
I cast the fire
[Chorus:]
Inside these hours
All alone
For I am in denial
Though never again will I
Direct my shields
Against another
But turn it on myself
Come back
To something I need
Come back to misery
Living the misdirection
All I know
The further off center
My lies become
Force it into my head
Now is the only time
Hiding behind a lie
All I know
I cast the fire
[Chorus]
No sight - unseen
No light - in between
Gravitational lensing
What they see
Is bent around my lies
Around this black hole
I have found myself again
Brought out the answers
For my seeing eyes only
Travelling in circles
I have found myself again
No way to face it straight
Inside the lonely
Here in the night of nights
Where nothing shines
I brought the flame down
On it all - unforgiving
In time the flame will die
The only hope I have to find
To never deny, never regret
The masquerade is over
As long as I cast the fire
[Chorus]
