Ashengrace From A Distance Lyrics

From A Distance Lyrics

from a distance I see this cynical world has come to be



everything
that it promised it never would become

from a distance I see the curtains
draw to a close

on the dreamers and poets and all that you love

goes
down with the setting sun



their words are written in stone, their
faces adorned with gold

I've been to their sages and the wisdom of
ages

but I've never been this cold

with cheshire cat smiles they
shattered this trust

I used to have gold but it soon became dust

I
don't believe in god, I don't believe in love,

but I've always believed
in you



from a distance I feel the fabrics open in down in your
eyes

holding close, holding fast, but always holding me down

in an
instant I try to open these wings unlearning to fly

face up to the rain
asleep in the stale underground



their words are written in stone,
their faces adorned with gold

I've been to their sages and the wisdom of
ages

but I've never been this cold

with all that you love, and all
that you need

no matter how long you try to believe

in the dreams
that won't come and the words

that won't go either way, in the end you
know



one foot on the staircase, one foot on the plains

either way i'll be waiting for you in the sun and the rain

I've never
been this high, I've never slipped this low

the things that I dream, the
dreams that I love

are the only things left that you'll never know



you'll never know
