Fatima Rusalka

Lyrics

[Intro: Melissa Milke & Shawn Milke] Born out of nothingness, defined by beauty and patience A tortured existence which leaves behind no answers Destined to suffer the struggle Cursed to be one of them, to be both of them (Fatima) Fatima Rusalka Born out of nothingness, defined by beauty and patience A tortured existence which leaves behind no answers Destined to suffer the struggle Cursed to be one of them, to be both of them (Fatima) Fatima Rusalka [Interlude: Dennis Lee] Somewhere between the chaos and the void in a desert that predates time itself Bereft of stars and untouched by the Gods of man There was only one, there was only her [Verse 1: Dennis Lee, Shane Crump, Shawn Milke, Dennis Lee & Shawn Milke] Black echoes deafening silence (She is born) Spat upon the tortured Earth (All alone) Cursed to never live (Scarlet fiend) Cursed to never die (Condemned to breathe eternally) Thirsting for (An answer) Starving for (Her purpose) But the sky (Holds his tongue) As she waits (For the end) [Chorus: Shawn Milke, Josh Grosscup, Dennis Lee & Shane Crump] (And it's not looking good at all) An anguished melody Reveals to me a memory of love once lost (A quiet affliction) A moment of weakness (Breathe and shut your eyes) Finally, it all makes sense so naturally I am lost (When angels and devils) Make sense of the wreckage Unsung heroine, death won't set you free [Post-Chorus: Shawn Milke] Fatima [Verse 2: Shawn Milke, Dennis Lee, Shawn Milke & Dennis Lee] Cautiously, I softly fake a smile It's cold here at night I'm trying to hide, dying to find myself I should stop praying to no one I can't stop searching for someone Please just stop, sweetheart, it gets better than this I wish I could go, wish I could find a way (I just want to see your face) But now I'm starting to see how it all ends [Chorus: Shawn Milke, Josh Grosscup, Dennis Lee, Shane Crump] (And it's not looking good at all) An anguished melody Reveals to me a memory of love once lost (A quiet affliction) A moment of weakness (Breathe and shut your eyes) Finally, it all makes sense so naturally I am lost (When angels and devils) Make sense of the wreckage Unsung heroine, death won't set you free Immortality is your curse [Bridge: Shawn Milke, Melissa Milke] (An orphan by God, and lost) You're an orphan by God, and lost (An orphan by God) An orphan by God You're an orphan by God, and lost [Breakdown: Dennis Lee, Shane Crump & Shawn Milke] So now it seems the sky has failed me (This has been a terrible mistake) One more chance [Bridge: Josh Grosscup, Shawn Milke & Melissa Milke] (If you're looking for an answer) Hold tight, and never let me go (If you're looking for an answer) And the lies we said we'll bury with the rest (If you're looking for an answer) Oh, the senselessness of all this suffering (If you're looking for an answer) Feel it again, and over again (Let it begin) Born out of nothingness, defined by beauty and patience A tortured existence which leaves behind no answers Destined to suffer the struggle Cursed to be one of them, to be both of them Fatima Rusalka [Outro: Dennis Lee, Shane Crump, Shawn Milke, Dennis Lee & Shane Crump] Ageless warrior left to destroy mankind and reap the Earth But we have to believe, trust (That there is hope) Useless prayers will be left to unveil the truth that all is lost But we have to believe, trust (That there is hope) Ageless warrior left to destroy mankind and reap the Earth But we have to believe, trust that there is hope Trust that there is hope, trust there is hope (It was never just a dream) Useless prayers will be left to unveil the truth that all is lost But we have to believe, we have to trust Trust that there is hope, that there is hope We have to trust that there is hope (It was never just a dream) That there is hope We have to believe, we have to trust that there is hope
