The opening track of Mushroomhead’s eighth album, A Wonderful Life.
It opens with a religious latin chant performed by the Cleveland Chamber Choir.
[Intro]
Agnus Dei qui tollis, qui tollis
Peccata mundi
Dona eis requiem
Dona eis requiem
[Refrain]
Entwined in blind naivete
Your mind's confined by deities
Accelerate demise in motion
Devastate all that you've known
Decay, a requiem for tomorrow
Forever's yesterday
Self-imposed denial
Entwined in blind naivete
Your mind's confined by deities
Accelerate demise in motion
Devastate all that you've known
[Verse 1]
Compromised, castrated shell of a broken dream
Build it up, tear it down
Wipe the slate clean
Disdain, dismantle, deconstruct
The weak are born detained
Deceit was born of trust
[Refrain]
Entwined in blind naivete
Your mind's confined by deities
Accelerate demise in motion
Devastate all that you've known
[Chorus]
Heard but never seen
Hope but never dream
We're falling far away (We're falling far away)
I'm not the enemy
It's not the end of me
Complete your fall from grace (Complete your fall from grace)
There's something left for us today
[Verse 2]
Beneath the beaten heart
Behind the broken mind
Moments unrelenting
Find you circumventing time
[Refrain]
Time slips away, cast away sanity
Can no longer hide your decay, a requiem for tomorrow
Forever's yesterday
Self-imposed denial
Entwined in blind naivete
Your mind's confined by deities
Accelerate demise in motion
Devastate all that you've known
[Chorus]
Heard but never seen
Hope but never dream
We're falling far away (We're falling far away)
I'm not the enemy
It's not the end of me
Complete your fall from grace (Complete your fall from grace)
There's something left for us today
We're falling far away (We're falling far away)
I'm not the enemy
It's not the end of me
Complete your fall from grace (Complete your fall from grace)
There's something left for us today
