Emperor - Of Blindness & Subsequent Seers lyrics
[Emperor - Of Blindness & Subsequent Seers lyrics]
Ever behind me rise a shadow
Taller than I
Yet, with a certain resemblance
How many times
Do I have to contemplate my own reflection
And say I have been blind?
I have been blind
Yet, I saw the search and dreams
Of my rejection walking behind me
Every time i am bound to have been granted
The gift of better sight
But my anxiety built one more brick
Fearing again to choose the wrong step
Vaguely I remember the blurred eyes
Of someone small
These strangers often come as blind
A troubled mind i left behind
Yet, was it I or my shadow
Walking in the past?
Taller than I
Yet, with a certain resemblance
How many times
Do I have to contemplate my own reflection
And say I have been blind?
I have been blind
Yet, I saw the search and dreams
Of my rejection walking behind me
Every time i am bound to have been granted
The gift of better sight
But my anxiety built one more brick
Fearing again to choose the wrong step
Vaguely I remember the blurred eyes
Of someone small
These strangers often come as blind
A troubled mind i left behind
Yet, was it I or my shadow
Walking in the past?
