Epica - The Essence of Silence Lyrics


Something is wrong

My strength has gone

Thoughts are corrupting my mind

I can see

I perceive

This ain't me

Something so strong

My mood has swung

I can't get it out of my head

I believe

That my mind misleads me

(We confuse)

Is it a doubt you try to hide

(Tangle and abuse)

Just have an open look inside

(We appear)

It's just a dreary memory stuck in your mind

(Memory stuck in your mind)

Retrieve your balance

Use your senses to observe

(The essence of silence)

Search for your essence

Find the silence within you

(The essence is...)

You're searching

And bursting

There seems to be no cure

When tension endures

Delusions corrupting my mind

I can see

I perceive

This ain't me

There seems to be no way

When light fades to grey

To get them all out of my head

I believe

That my mind misleads me

(We confuse)

Is it a doubt you try to hide

(Tangle and abuse)

Just have an open look inside

(We appear)

It's just a dreary memory stuck in your mind

(Memory stuck in your mind)

Retrieve your balance

Use your senses to observe

(The essence of silence)

Search for your essence

Find the silence within you

(The essence is...)

Make a start

Explore your heart

When a persistent memory

Penetrates deep in your mind

Allow the silence to destroy

Your thoughts in every kind

(We confuse)

Is it a doubt you try to hide

(Tangle and abuse)

Just have an open look inside

(We appear)

It's just a dreary memory stuck in your mind

(Memory stuck in your mind)

Retrieve your balance

Use your senses to observe

(The essence of silence)

Allow the silence to wipe your thoughts away

Retrieve your balance

Use your senses to observe

(The essence of silence)

Search for your essence

Find the silence within you

(The essence is...)

In silence
