Lyrics to Heart Set To Divide
In times of surrender I am shedding my scars
I was sick
But I was set for the stars
The road was mine but I worried still
In the sunset of age
On the weight of my lips
And closed was the door to my past perception
And my disposition
Had then been chained
I opened my mind to all the love forsaken
You saw my white flag
As our shadows merge

Through tides of repentance
My words lead to deed
In their wake
See how I sway
Eyes fix on the horizon
Big as it seems
I let the words lapse
And return to a dream
Then glide into the nights
All my memories unbroken
I let the raptor circle me
To become their own prey

I see the beast lay waste
I see his wings keep unfolding
His name strewn across the sky
And reflected on the world
This is my
Elegy for love that couldn't end
A call for our blood

Came to stay and excel
Transmigration at a hope
I couldn't cross
I had no choice but to make peace
Reach higher ground
Every breath now without a sound
Every breath now without a sound

I see the beast lay waste
I see his wings keep unfolding
His name strewn across the sky
And reflected on the world
This is my
Elegy for love that couldn't end
A call for our blood
