Only The Sadness Of It All

from Time and Tide by Amanda Kim Sanderson

/

lyrics

In the realm of the dark clouds
Great giver of the endless dream
Flourishes
By prospering
On desperation avarice and greed

Living up to
Expectations
It’s a certainty to fall

There is no
Requital
Or recognition

Only the sadness of it all

In the grip of self destruction
Shackled in the prison of the day
Hopes are buried deep
Stolen dreams to keep
The burning cloak of anguish at bay

Don’t give into
Your temptation
It’s a certainty to fall

There is no
Requital
Or recognition

Only the sadness of it all

Fill my head with formalin and
Put me on display
Ease the way to senselessness
For that’s the only way

Standing here among the remnants
Of everything that came and went before
Give up on what you seek
Head into retreat
In honesty you’ll never ask for more

Don’t give into
Your temptation
It’s a certainty to fall

There is no
Requital
Or recognition

Only the sadness of it all

No wonder
There is no
Joy or elation

Only the sadness of it all
