A Hollow Promise 가사

All lustre died As grotesque misfortune loomed with its jagged smile Shaped the despondent heart This empty vessel that I am Crawled inside a careless void Swam against the current in vain I was but swept with the tide Yet I seek no absolution now Traverse these wastelands without regret For deep within I always knew Carried it with me for all these years But now it's all too late To reverse the gears of fate I find nothing but hopelessness A mere reflection of what life could have been If the flight of sleep would embrace me In this brooding endless night As the shades lay over me Like a drapery of doom Feeding these mournful memories Like a fateful dirge in the dark at sunrise The stark sunlight bleeds into bloodshot eyes Promising a false tomorrow that would never come A hollow promise
