Cardinal Sin

No-one knows what lies behind my stare
My eyes do not reflect
And no-one knows the dreams I bear
The world I must protect

Within my soul
Within my soul
A thousand kings have died
I wanna know
I wanna go
Where horizon touches sky

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me all the lies again
Words to justify
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me that it's worthwile
To get behind the why
Where all is true

I don't care if I should die today
My history remains
You know I never really paid
Not even half of what I gained

A little light
A second sight
Is all that I demand
I wanna fly
I wanna die
Where the ocean meets the sand

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me all the lies again
Words to justify
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me that it's worthwile
To get behind the why
Where all is true

Deep within my mind
It's getting clearer now
All I rejected remains

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me all the lies again
Words to justify what I must do
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me that it's worthwile
To get behind the why
Where all is true
