Sonata Arctica - Picturing the Past lyrics

[Sonata Arctica - Picturing the Past lyrics]

In a house where no one never sleeps
Lays a man who sees more with his eyes
Picturing the past before him
In a bed, alone, with clothes on
Paying for a service he doesn't really need

With his eyes, he sees more love and lust
More tears, far too much to handle
Can't tell a soul, not this time
They'd lock him right up
Too much of burning bushes too
Much for his weak soul

In his mind, oh so jaded
He's gone too far behind
Of all the visions seen
This one makes him scream

He cannot live neither die in this world
Burning sensation inside
You know how that hurts?
Making up for the crimes of your life
With scythe as your sword
You must fight 'till the end of time

Don't look behind
Or you will fall through the time
Only time can make you see
Behind of the curtain hiding
The secret your time is up
When you see the light

You can live as a noble man but when time
You won't be left behind

With the sound of time ringing in his head
He leaves the house where no-one never sleeps
Job well done knowing that at
Least one will be please, d
Hiding is always useless
Pictures will fade with time

Seeking for a winner of the day
Prize of life is here
Of all the visions seen this
One makes him scream

He cannot live neither die in this world
Burning sensation inside
You know how that hurts?
Making up for the crimes of your life
With scythe as your sword
You must fight 'till the end of time

He cannot live neither die in this world
Burning sensation inside
You know how that hurts?
Making up for the crimes of your life
With scythe as your sword
You must fight 'till the end of time
