Testo The Promise (Arcadia)



Whose tears on a gaping voice

Who's stretching arms match

The hunger of mine

There lips will they never join

But always draw me closer

And further entwined

With a promise dealer understand

All freedoms fade away

To a point of view

Where many different pathways meet

And we're standing on this precipice

With nothing much to gain save

But the deep blue screams

Of falling dreams

With our next move



Heaven hide your eyes

Heaven's eyes will never dry



The shades of a thousand steel

Come flashing by my face

In the fury of war

In desolation and abandoned fields

The hungry make their stand

When they'll stand for no more

Hear the passion in their voices

See the heaven in their eyes

Their hopes and schemes are waiting

Dreams of less than paradise

And sometimes we make promises

We never mean to keep

For blackmail is the only deal

A promise dealer sees



Heaven hide your eyes

Heaven's eyes will never dry
