The Promise

Arcadia

Those tears on a gaping voice

Who's stretching arms match the hunger of mine

There lips will they never join

But always draw me closer and further entwined



With a promise dealer understand all freedoms fade away

To a point of view where many different pathways meet

And we're standing on this precipice with nothing much to gain save

But the deep blue screams of falling dreams with our next mov



Heaven hide your eyes

Heaven's eyes will never dry



The shades of a thousand steel

Come flashing by my face in the fury of war

In desolation and abandoned fields

The hungry make their stand when they'll stand for no more



Hear the passion in their voices see the heaven in their eyes

Their hopes and schemes are waiting dreams of less than paradise

And sometimes we make promises we never mean to keep

For blackmail is the only deal a promise dealer sees



Heaven hide your eyes

Heaven's eyes will never dry
