Beyond the traps of time

I remembered black skies 
The lightning all around me 
I remembered each flash 
As time began to blur 
Like a startling sign 
That fate had finally found me 
And your voice was all I heard 
That I get what I deserve 

So give me reason 
To prove me wrong 
To wash this memory clean 
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes 
Give me reason 
To fill this hole 
Connect the space between 
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies 
Across this new divide 

There was nothing in sight 
But memories left abandoned 
There was nowhere to hide 
The ashes fell like snow 
And the ground caved in 
Between where we were standing 
And your voice was all I heard 
That I get what I deserve 

So give me reason 
To prove me wrong 
To wash this memory clean 
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes 
Across this new divide 

(Guitar solo 15 sec.) 

In every loss 
In every lie 
In every truth that you'd deny 
And each regret 
And each goodbye 
Was a mistake too great to hide 
And your voice was all I heard 
That I get what I deserve 

So give me reason 
To prove me wrong 
To wash this memory clean 
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes 
Give me reason 
To fill this hole 
Connect the space between 
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies 
Across this new divide 
Across this new divide 
Across this new divide
