lyrics

(Verse)
And she’s walking in the rain again,
Never slowing,
Afraid to lose control again
Ever though her dreams are evident
They’re fading
As her friends came and went
And the voices from the past
Her desires that will never last
They will all align
And in time when pain is gone
She will be fine.

(Verse)
August evenings and the nights are long
Crickets singing
Of what is yet to come.
And the voices from her past
They tell her
Happiness will never last
And in time maybe she’ll grow
And maybe she’ll know

(Chorus)
Without mercy, this world will keep on spinning
(Until the End of Days arrives)
Too keep counting time is to live your life in vain
With clemency, this world will keep on dreaming
(And when you die, you’ll be remembered)
She’ll never ever
Always remember herself

(Solo)

(Verse)
This city’s all that’s left of all
The grandeur
We used to have to live
I’m working in the morning sun
In my mind
The moon is shining just as much
I keep slaving all the life away
Until there’s nothing left to say

(Chorus)
Without mercy, this world will keep on spinning
(Until the End of Days arrives)
Too keep counting time is to live your life in vain
With clemency, this world will keep on dreaming
(And when you die, you’ll be remembered)
She’ll never ever
Always remember
