Waiting in the wings

Your courage sings before

you falter...

It's just another way to say

What's there but never

shows.



It's just another day to lay

Your sins before the altar.

And where it's going to end

this time around

Nobody knows.



Every time it seems that you

Have gained an understanding

Those devils at your heels

Reach up and try to tip the scales.



Waking from a dream

You see it's all been

Done without you.

And every vain attempt to

make it stay

Is destined to fail.



Chorus

Fury rages through your

restless days

Shades of time that's gone

before

Empty cages where the

prisoner plays

'Til the door swings closed

behind for evermore...



Evermore...

Evermore...



Long before we come of

Age we yearn to leave

The garden

And wrestle with a myth

The hand of fate

Has faintly drawn.



But somewhere on the way

We feel our hearts begin

to harden

And see just as we learn

to turn around

The garden is gone.



Fury rages through your

restless days

Shades of time that's gone

before

Empty cages where the

prisoner plays

'Til the door swings closed

behind for evermore...



Evermore...

Evermore...
