Animus - Monuments

Lyrics by：Andrew Cizek

Composed by：John Simon Browne/Oliver Steele/Michael Malyan

Fluctuate with waves bending on the threshold of glory

Changing shape inside an ocean filled with my deepest desires

Following the siren's call from every direction

To show me what I am a passenger in a foreign land

Astray and void of purpose

I've wandered aimlessly

The flames beyond the surface

Now guiding me to set me free

Searching for a moment of clarity

To bring me towards the future that I was destined to live

Shedding my disguise I realize I am desensitized

By all the cries to compromise

A life I have visualized through bleeding eyes

Immobilized by the turning tides

And how long must I keep on reaching

For worlds beyond my grasp

And how long will my heart stay beating

Before collapse

Before collapse

Before collapse

All that I wanted is part of me at last

No longer haunted by demons of my past

Astray and void of purpose

I've wandered aimlessly

The flames beyond the surface

Now guiding me through darkened waters

I'm torn asunder by all that I choose to be

Embrace my every burden to set me free

Guided by flames above the surface

Now justified I accept my purpose
