Nocturnal Light Lyrics

[Intro]
What's become of you?
What's become of me?
And all we breathe?

[Verse 1]
Cold soul, no visitors (in the chambers tonight)
You breathe the cost of your demise
Your soul to take in plain sight
No spoken word but always there

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Don't need no trigger to waste you away
Your words will fall casting memories of shade
These empty crowds and falling stars

[Chorus]
And time and time again lost in emptiness
A victim of circumstance, you leave no stone

[Verse 2]
Play the role, this masquerade
You speak your mind, do as your told
No time to waste in plain, in plain sight
Stand all alone, no breath of air
[Pre-Chorus 2]
A broken sinner with a halo of gold
An open mind as the secrets unfold
The pendulum will swing tonight

[Chorus]
And time and time again lost in emptiness
A victim of circumstance, you leave no stone

[Guitar Solos]

[Bridge]
No, no

[Pre-Chorus 3]
You thrive and revel, but who's to blame?
A vicious circle in your own parade

[Chorus]
And time and time again lost in emptiness
A victim of circumstance, you leave no stone
