Lyrics to A Heartless Portrait (The Orphean Testament) [Full Album 2022] by Evergrey

Tracklist: 01. Save Us [Verse 1] We were out of control We got lost when we stopped to feel Our inside's bleeding fear Save us Fell in love with a story But its words were never about us Now we're drowning in trenches That we've been digging for ages [Pre-Chorus] Hey! Save us! Hey! Save us! [Chorus] 'Cause we are wrong to feel Like our hearts have all the time we need Save us We must go on and dream Save us Save us [Verse 2] We'vе lost all control Fallen in holes Our hearts forgеd in the darkness And in the cold to fit the molds we are chasing And these worlds we're creating We fell in love with a story But its chapters were never about us We lost our identity traces And all we fought for is wasted [Chorus] 'Cause we are wrong to feel Like our hearts have all the time we need Save us We must go on and dream Save us Save us [Post-Chorus] Save us, yeah [Pre-Chorus] Hey! Save us! Hey! Save us! [Chorus] 'Cause we are wrong to feel Like our hearts have all the time we need Save us We must go on and dream Save us Save us [Outro] 'Cause we all long to feel We have all the time we need Save us We must go on and dream Save us Save us 02. Midwinter Calls [Verse 1] Just listen It's not the sunrise, it's the light it brings And it's not the tears, it's how the sorrow sings It's not the solitude, it is the emptiness It's not the fear, it's how the blood rushes It's not the fleeing, it is the leaving And that my inside remains unchanged [Pre-Chorus] I shut all doors to summer Opening the vaults to fall Closing my mind to all color Midwinter calls Home! [Chorus] We are lost, far from home We never discovered a way to get closer Our whole existence outlasts our fall [Verse 2] Confession I never shone brightly, I never cried lightly And it's not that I don't know the demons are fighting I know them by the name as they reek of emptiness Source not the fear, it's the self-esteem it crushes It's not the fleeing, it's the non-believing And that my inside will never change, no It is the doubting and simply being These are the fears that I'm battling through [Chorus] We are lost, far from home We never discovered a way to get closer Our whole existence outlasts our fall [Bridge] We were tears in a storm That froze in the fall We've fallen too far [Pre-Chorus] I shut all doors to summer Opening the vaults to fall Closing my mind to all colors Midwinter calls Home! [Chorus] We are lost, far from home We never discovered a way to get closer Our whole existence outlasts our fall To behold this (We are lost, far from home) Is it hopeless? We are lost, far from home The last of all 03. Ominous [Intro] The fire's gone and I’m still paying I go on, I travel on When I'm alone the heat is ominous [Verse 1] We ran all our lives I ran all my life A lonely run, nobody missed us I hide My hideout was torn down coldly (Help me) Needed help, the fire spread (Help me) [Pre-Chorus] And at night's when darkness was closer Just needed one of you to say out loud That we all could come [Chorus] The fire’s gone but I'm still burning Life is long, I'll travel on When I'm alone the heat is ominous [Bridge] I will go on My fire's still burning To see new dawns I'll carry on I must believe This heat will clear for me And that the smoke will scatter [Chorus] The fire's gone but I'm still burning Life is long, I’ll carry on When I’m alone the heat is ominous The fire's gone but I’m still burning Life is long, I travel on When I'm alone the heat is ominous 04. Call Out The Dark We chose the night to be left alone 'Cause when life's a lie you want to leave the cold For something that you know Because the only thing I can trust is Is that my inside will show me how to stay the same You saw me, you feel it So you know That we call out the dark We call out the dark Call out the dark We call out the dark I collide I swim against the tide With no one to rely on You're safe when you're alone 'Cause when your own your own The only thing you can trust is Is that your insidе Is a place where you can stay And that you feel it likе I feel it Then I can show you I know the way out of fear and And how to stop the bleeding You call out the dark We call out the dark We were dark angels from the start And we heard the call from the dark Call out the dark We call out the dark 05. The Orphean Testament It has taken a lifetime for me to reach here And if you fled for your life just like me You'd see it through my eyes If you lived in the shadows like me It's the break of dawn you fear And that the skies you know will clear I thought I was heaven sent I thought I was heaven sent I know that you can't hear me I know that you can't hear me I was caught in the ripples Of a leaving light I must halt 'Cause when I found myself out hope I didn't know how to fall I always thought I could rule it all We never thought life could harm us Beneath the ground and into the night The ceaseless fall I would travel through light-years to see Just a glimpse of you again So the sense of you remain Heaven's wept tears of God's fell from stars My words painted the skies in blue My hymns of sorrow echoes for you Shadows fell and changed all light Misfortune of the serpent bite Colored all we knew into night The price of a glance unjust Turns all we know to dust Life ended right before us I was caught in the ripples Of a leaving light I must halt 'Cause when I found myself out hope I didn't know how to fall I always thought I could rule it all We never thought life could harm us Beneath the ground and into the night The ceaseless fall Away from light Set fire to life Leave the day behind We've set fire to life Set fire, set fire To life 06. Reawakening I woke up cold I'm tired to breathe the lows I dropped this soul Breathe out the old I'm broken but breathing I'm still alive but did a lot of bleeding I'm open to reasons to feel alive If we keep dreaming Reshape this fear to hope Reawakening To become what you have lost I wake up alone Who am I, to me, to you, to anyone? I don't know I fought the cold And the night I hope these walls will hold I wasn't broken I was fleeing I thought I was free but who was I deceiving I'm done hoping for freedom I'm breathing life If we keep dreaming Reshape this fear to hope Reawakening To become what you have lost If we keep dreaming of Empire's falling And new kingdoms rising To rule again When the soul is asleep It needs to be woken I'm picking up the pieces Over the fields of crying Are you offering me shelter? And am I really this asleep? Are you offering me a way to my soul? My lack of understanding is life-long I don't understand me Dreaming Reshape this fear to hope Reawakening To become what you have lost Dreaming Reshape this fear to hope Reawakening Can't stay this asleep I need to be woken Need to be woken 07. The Great Unwashed We stay out of sight Forced away from light We are the never seen Seeking the lonely streets We are innocent Just belong to the once condemned We hide falling so we die lonely We are in on the lie We got no place to go Falling like leafs end of summer Slowly withering We are in on the lie It got out of control But we'll always unite The great unwashed Make me innocent Erase my ignorance This world has changed me I'm starving in my chase to be free But I'm not innocent No, I'm not innocent I'm a fallen fortress A heartless portrait We are in on the lie We got no place to go Falling like leafs end of summer Slowly withering We are in on the lie It got out of control But we'll always unite The great unwashed We'll always unite in the end We're stronger than most just pretend We never mind the dark We are in on the lie We got no place to go Falling like leafs end of summer Slowly withering We are in on the lie It got out of control But we'll always unite The great unwashed We're the great unwashed 08. Heartless Feels like it deepens As if I'm one of the Heartless 'Cause I can't feel what my heart felt I can't find reasons to keep feeding this soul This loss of control that I can't feel Untie my beliefs end I'm tired of breathing you Tired of dreaming Of times that won't come true So tired of feeling I'm tired of feeling you And all this time that I've lost I've lost to you I can't believe that I stood by you for this long I even knew the outcome A heart finds treason Less important than breaking So when something's worth saving It saves it Untie my bеliefs end I'm tired of brеathing you Tired of dreaming Of times that won't come true So tired of feeling I'm tired of feeling you And all this time that I've lost I've lost to you I was high on believing I was high on believing you So tired of feeling So tired of feeling you And what I used to be feeling The one thing you never knew Untie my beliefs end I'm tired of breathing you Tired of dreaming Of times that won't come true So tired of feeling I'm tired of feeling you And all this time that I've lost I've lost to you 09. Blindfolded [Verse 1] Need something to believe in Need something more to start seeing That this life that I'm weaving Start to feel less deceiving I need to recall [Pre-Chorus] It is a miracle to free yourself from chains 'Cause failure's imminent and life can't change to Something more beautiful, even acceptable We need to open up our eyes and leave the [Chorus] Dark nights coming We are lost in fragile moments Falsehood, soulless We run through this blindfolded [Verse 2] I need something to start feeling again Somеthing more to start believing in mе And this time that I'm weaving I'll make sure all ends are meeting I'll need it [Pre-Chorus] It is a miracle to free yourself from chains 'Cause failure's imminent and life can't change to Something more beautiful, even acceptable We need to open up our eyes and leave the [Chorus] Dark nights coming We are lost in fragile moments Falsehood, soulless We run through this blindfolded [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] It is a miracle to free yourself from chains 'Cause failure's imminent and life can't change to Something more beautiful, even acceptable We need to open up our eyes and leave the [Chorus] Dark nights coming We are lost in fragile moments Falsehood, soulless We run through this blindfolded [Outro] Hey, blindfolded We run through this blindfolded Hey, blindfolded We run through this blindfolded 10. Wildfires I've always been dreaming of new days Where I'm stronger and I could feel less Think less So silence could solve me If the sun fell down And burnt us down to the ground Would the Wildfires remind me of That my heart's worn out And I'm all out of fire And if that's all that life is I don't want to do this 'Cause all I do now is weakening And all I've got to look forward to is truth Cause I wish I could feel less, think less Be less If the sun fell down And burnt us down to the ground Would the wildfires remind me of That my heart's worn out And I'm all out of fire And if that's all that life is I don't want to do this
