Lyrics
So many nights I’ve tried.
So many nights I have walked the silver tides.
So many nights defeat
Has left me clawing and crawlin’
Through the streets.
And I will live a life of worry.
And I will ever inflict pain.
Until the moment arrives
The Gilded Orb will arise-
Never or evermore again.
So many nights I’ve tried.
So many nights I have fought the silver tides.
So many nights defeat
Has left me clawin’ and crawlin’
Through the sheets.
So many times I’ve wrest
The sound of beating hearts
And held them to my chest.
So many mornings fled.
Longing for the taste of lead.
You cannot call me home.
My ears are not my own.
I cannot hear you.
You cannot come along.
The curse is mine alone.
You can’t redeem me.
Best thing to do is move along.
Leave me alone.
Before the cycle starts anew
And I am thrown
Into the arms of and anger and a rage
The likes of which you’ve never seen.
The Gilded Orb will rise again!
Orb will rise again.
And I will live a life of worry.
And I will ever inflict pain.
Until that moment arrives
The Gilded Orb will arise
Nevermore or ever again.
The orb will rise again.
The Gilded Orb will rise again!
