The Departure Songtext
I came back to life
Naked and tied to the floor
In the corner of my eyes
I saw them coming through the door
All is black
All is white
I open my eyes and faced the airborn lights
[Chorus]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been
I cannot move
Behind myself is a spark
I pray on myself of who I left behind
And as I look around
I realize I'm all alone
The dark so wide so wasted
It chills me to the bone
Suddenly arising up in the air
My mind was burning
The bodies that they spare
I said farewell to the bodies their stealing
All is black
All is white
I open my eyes and face the airborn lights
[Chorus]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been
Always setting us free
I'll fit right back into the dream
But something here just keeps me awake
And I'm cut wide open
Maybe they search for my soul
This is more than a human can take
And don't tell me I'm dreaming
I know what I saw
I'll feel alive like I've never before
[Chorus 2x]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been
Naked and tied to the floor
In the corner of my eyes
I saw them coming through the door
All is black
All is white
I open my eyes and faced the airborn lights
[Chorus]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been
I cannot move
Behind myself is a spark
I pray on myself of who I left behind
And as I look around
I realize I'm all alone
The dark so wide so wasted
It chills me to the bone
Suddenly arising up in the air
My mind was burning
The bodies that they spare
I said farewell to the bodies their stealing
All is black
All is white
I open my eyes and face the airborn lights
[Chorus]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been
Always setting us free
I'll fit right back into the dream
But something here just keeps me awake
And I'm cut wide open
Maybe they search for my soul
This is more than a human can take
And don't tell me I'm dreaming
I know what I saw
I'll feel alive like I've never before
[Chorus 2x]
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been
