Eternity
The Curse Within Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sacrificed
He sealed the fate of the world
As evil came
To bring us to our knees again

Now I have given up this life
Take me as an offering and leave the rest behind
Rest behind
And will I live another life
Trust and close my eyes
And leave it all behind

Only I
Can bear the weight of this world
Saving humanity
From walking into soulless enslavement

Now I have given up this life
Take me as an offering and leave the rest behind
Rest behind
And will I live another life
Trust and close my eyes
And leave it all behind
Trust and close my eyes
And leave it all behind

Behind

Is this the end
Is this the end
Ascending from mortality
Returning bone to sand
In my final time I welcome death
Grace me with eternity
And I will be reborn

Now I have given up this life
Take me as an offering and leave the rest behind
Rest behind
And will I live another life
Trust and close my eyes
And leave it all behind
Trust and close my eyes




And leave it all behind
And leave it all behind
