The First Noble Truth (Live)

[Intro]
"This song is 'The First Noble Truth'"

[Verse 1]
As reality washes away the faded memories of daylight
This is my escape
Realization of my mind's own deceit
Perception slips away

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
Lulled into a fool's paradise
Words mislead again
The agony of imaginary sins and fears
Truth of suffering

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
Buried dreams that shadow me, I feel it's all been wasted (Dreams that shatter me)
Break my dreams to free my soul because I won't even notice (Dreams to free my soul)

[Verse 3]
Disintegration of the ego with this mind creates
False idea of self
The cessation of continuity and becoming
True enlightenment

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
Buried dreams that shadow me, I feel it's all been wasted (Dreams that shatter me)
Break my dreams to free my soul because I won't even notice (Dreams to free my soul)
Someone free me from heaven torn asunder
Full of empty promises to be there if I wonder
(Alone and wandering)

[Bridge]
Will not remain enslaved
This world's transparency
I see right through
I walk alone

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 1]
As reality washes away the faded memories of daylight
This is my escape
Realization of my mind's own deceit
Perception slips away

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
Buried dreams that shadow me, I feel it's all been wasted (Dreams that shatter me)
Break my dreams to free my soul because I won't even notice (Dreams to free my soul)
Someone free me from heaven torn asunder
Full of empty promises to be there if I wonder
(Alone and wandering)

[Outro]
Extinction of thirst
Extinction of hatred
Extinction of desire
Extinction of illusion
This is absolute
