lyrics

No Exit Signs

There she stands before me in a dim-lit afterlife ---
She's a devourer of worlds
As the morning breaks I surcome to the illusion
She is there for me and I for her

If you told this to me yesterday or the day before
I would not believe it to be true
I'm inhaling all of the light so deep, you see, I,
Well, I've lost perspective on you

Sat awake in bed for I do not dare to dream
Those visions in my head sing low
There's water all around as I slip and sink away, deep
Deep, deep down to depths untold

If you told this to me yesterday or the day before
I would not believe it to be true
I'm inhaling all of the light so deep, you see, I,
Well, I've lost perspective on you

Standing before me she speaks the immortal lines
There are no exit signs ---
Standing before me she speaks the immortal lines
There are no exit signs --- you're mine!

When you're smiling at me, I'll believe anything you say
Even If you told me I was dead
I'm faintly aware of the trouble I'm in
Where's the rationale in what she's said?
(There is no rationale --- no exit signs and no way out)

Reinventors of self and prone to playing their songs in a myriad of ways, join Silverlode on their mythological journey through history, future, fantasy and good times via their ever-evolving music.
