Paper Mache Kisses - No Escape

After nightfall, I was homebound In the dark, wandering in the crystalline light
Of the moon, dancing in the desert night Tangled skein of stars rose into my sight
Whisper to the elemental spirits Endlessly wander tonight
Sing and dance underneath the moonlight Ancient things appear in the starlight

Incantations i count 10 Can't you see the veil is thin
On the other side of life Holds only the past of people who died

I know just why you made this There's no way anyone can fake this
Our souls are bound by the ages Prophets and ancient sages
I know just why you gave this There's no way we can escape this
Our souls are bound by the ages There's no way we can escape this

The joke of thief and magician The king, the queen, she envisions love
You don't need these cards from above To see that someday you'll find love

There's no way out, you can't escape this You can't use tricks and try to fake it
Death comes quick and unannounced to some While others suffer, then succumb
Incantations, I count twelve Too many sins paved the path to hell
On the other side of life Is only the dead and the people who died

I know just why you made this There's no way anyone can fake this
Our souls are bound by the ages Prophets and ancient sages
I know just why you gave this There's no way we can escape this
Our souls are bound by the ages There's no way we can escape this

I know just why you gave him Too many sins, they need forgiveness
The down, the how, the fallen and the lost The times I gave up and the things it cost
I know just why we need this Too many lives that need forgiveness
The down, the how, the fallen and the lost The times you gave up, the things it cost

I know just why you made this There's no way anyone can fake this
Our souls are bound by the ages Prophets and ancient sages
I know just why you gave this There's no way we can escape this
Our souls are bound by the ages There's no way we can escape this

There's no way we can escape this
There's no way we can escape this
