Enigmatic Entrance, Marco Minnemann and Ross Jennings - Time & Tide

In the blue walls I can’t keep a secret
In the smoke and mirror I’ll repeat it
Stubborn parade, set in your ways
Lessons never learned
(From a shallow grave you buried me in)
Otherworldly tables turning
Justice will be served
(Of the chosen ones you’ll never be)

Gentle touch, you sink your claws
Like you own me, own me
Desperate for love, you mask your flaws
Don’t you know me?
You should know me by now

If the winds of change may never lift your sail
Can the gift be taken away?

‘Cos I’ll be there as long as air is in my lungs
Can’t you see what we’ve become?

In the blue walls I can’t keep a secret
In the cloak and dagger I’ll repeat it
Stubborn parade, set in your ways
Lessons never learned
(From a shallow grave you buried me in)
Otherworldly tables turning
Justice will be served
(Of the chosen ones you’ll never be)

As sure as the Sun
You speak in tongues
Aren’t you lonely, lonely in your own arms?
A perfect storm of right and wrong
Betrayal, you should know me by now

If the sea of lies reflects your perfect face
Can the gift be taken away?

‘Cos I’ll be there as long as air is in my lungs
Can’t you see what we’ve become, oh?
The truth may dare but time and tide won’t wait for us
Youth is wasted on the young

Cut my nose to spite my face
It’s your game that I keep on playing
Time may heal or be delayed
A salted wound, you can’t erase me

Chain my hands
Bite my tongue
Seal my lips
Eyes wide shut

Oh, What if the trauma’s all we have?
What if we always chose this path?

You know what you’ve sacrificed
Are you lying sleepless in this bed you made?
As the gift is taken away

‘Cos I’ll be there as long as air is in my lungs
Can’t you see what we’ve become, oh?
The truth may dare but time and tide won’t wait for us
Youth is wasted on the young
