Fates Warning - Epitaph Lyrics
Isolation freezes my life, coldness grips my heart
Trapped within a world, a world apart
Desolate am I, a tempest raging silently
Lost a barren soul adrift at sea
The clamor draws me closer to the ledge
As I gaze upon this burning world I curse this life
A life through which I'm hurled
Lies, lies upon this side
And that truthless violence deception mourned by the wise
Thousands of voices drowning out his own
In a popular torrent of lies upon lies turn to stone
So intense the pain that has crawled
That feeds the worm the writhes inside my brain
In the deep of night it stirs again
In the heart of the sleeper
From the crack of dawn
I wake to curse the rising of the sun
Every life is built on hope
Now my dreams have surely passed
Inner voices haunt my numbered days
Darkness calls me with her laughs
Torn between life and death, inertia fills my soul
No will to be, no pride to care, reapers take your toll
Strangers cast a menacing glance as existence I defy
Shatter their dream like world I'm not afraid to die
Omen bird soars the desert land
To the castle of idolence, there lies the shadow of a man
See the colored flowers and marble towers
They fade to brown
Like the unknown inscribed in stone
He's abandoned, abandoned flesh and bones
He's lost in silence swallowed in vastness
Drowned in the depths of a meaningless
Past

Fates Warning Epitaph Comments
Great (for me...)
The ending part is epic!
7. Epitaph
Isolation freezes my life, coldness grips my heart
Trapped within a world, a world apart.
Desolate am I, a tempest raging silently.
Lost a barren soul adrift at sea.
Catatonic state, it sharpens life's depressing edge
The clamor draws me closer to the ledge
As I gaze upon this burning world I curse this life.
A life through which I'm hurled
Lies, lies upon this side and that
Truthless violence deception mourned by the wise.
Thousands of voices drowning out his own
In a popular torrent of lies upon lies
Turn to stone.
So intense the pain that has crawled
From the bleeding corpse of pleasure.
That feeds the worm the writhes
Inside my brain.
In the deep of night it stirs again
In the heart of the sleeper,
From the crack of dawn I wake to curse
The rising of the sun.
Every life is built on hope
Now my dreams have surely passed,
Inner voices haunt my numbered days
Darkness calls me with her laughs
Torn between life and death inertia
Fills my soul.
No will to be nor pride to care
Reapers take your toll.
Strangers cast a menacing glance as
Existence I defy.
Shatter their dream like world I'm not
Afraid to die
Omen bird soars the desert land to the castle
Of idolence, there lies the shadow of a man.
See the colored flowers and marble towers
They fade to brown
Like the unknown inscribed in stone
He's abandoned, abandoned flesh and bones
He's lost in silence swallowed in vastness
Drowned in the depths of a meaningless
Past
Isolation freezes my life, coldness grips my heart
Trapped within a world, a world apart
Desolate am I, a tempest raging silently
Lost a-barren, adrift at sea
Catatonic state, it sharpens life's depressing edge
The clamor draws me closer to the ledge
As I gaze upon this burning world, I curse this life
A life through which I'm hurled
Lies, lies upon this side and that
Truthless violence, deception, mourned by the wise
Thousands of voices drowning out his own
In a popular torrent of lies upon lies
Turn to stone
So intense the pain that has crawled
From the bleeding corpse of pleasure
That feeds the worm the writhes
Inside my brain
In the deep of night it stirs again
In the heart of the sleeper
From the crack of dawn I wake to curse
The rising of the sun
Every life is built on hope
Now my dreams have surely passed
Inner voices haunt my numbered days
Darkness calls me with her laughs
Torn between life and death inertia
Fills my soul
No will to be nor pride to care
Reapers take your toll
Strangers cast a menacing glance
As existence I defy
Shatter their dream like world I'm not
Afraid to die
Omen bird soars the desert land to the castle
Of idolence, there lies the shadow of a man
See the colored flowers and marble towers
They fade to brown
Like the unknown inscribed in stone
He's abandoned, abandoned flesh and bones
He's lost in silence, swallowed in vastness
Drowned in the depths of a meaningless

Sounds like there's a fight in the beginning
The beginning of your comment sounds like you're an idiot... same goes for the rest of it!
One of their best songs ever. Watch the interview with Arch and Matheos. They say that same thing.
Hell yeah
