Songtext von The Wager

Eternity awaits me And I know that we're all broken vessels Trying to find our way in life To the ends of the earth I've searched high and low to no avail My time was wasted Why did I ever place my faith In things that couldn't save me? (couldn't save me) Everything was all for nothing Every breath I took in vain Everything was all for nothing Empty words that hold no weight And now I understand (and now I understand) That it was all in vain Here I kneel before my maker reaching for words Reaching for words Ears to hear and eyes to see But never comprehending Ears to hear and eyes to see But never understanding (Eternity awaits me And I know that we're all broken vessels Trying to find our way in life Eternity awaits me) Why did I ever place my faith In things that couldn't save me? (couldn't save me) Everything was all for nothing Every breath I took in vain Everything was all for nothing Empty words that hold no weight Time stands still I'm running out of breath Everything around me breathes, except for me
