The Blinding Of False Light Lyrics

As I Lay Dying The Blinding Of False Light

I SEE NOW...
I SEE THROUGH THE VEIL OF EXPECTATION
I SEE NOW...
I SEE THAT CONFORMITY IS BETRAYAL

BETRAYAL OF THOSE WHO ARE FORGOTTEN
YET VISION ALONE FURTHERS OUR BLAME
UNLESS FOLLOWED BY TRANSFORMATION
IT IS POINTLESS TO BE GIVEN SIGHT
WITHOUT THE HOPE OF OUR REACTION
WE OVERLOOK THE PURPOSE OF OUR EYES

NOW IS OUR CHANCE TO BREATHE WITHOUT TYRANNY
RELEASED FROM THE BLINDING OF FALSE LIGHT
NOW IS OUR CHANCE TO BREATHE WITHOUT TYRANNY
IN OUR WEAKNESS WE ARE FREED

I SEE NOW...
I SEE THROUGH THE VEIL OF EXPECTATION/TRADITION
I SEE NOW...
I SEE THAT CONFORMITY IS BETRAYAL

WITH EMPTY EYES I LOOKED AHEAD
YET WITH CLARITY I NOW LOOK BACK

NOW IS OUR CHANCE TO BREATH NEW LIFE
WITHOUT TYRANNY
RELEASED FROM THE BLINDING OF FALSE LIGHT
NOW IS OUR CHANCE TO BREATHE NEW LIFE
WITHOUT TYRANNY
IN OUR WEAKNESS WE ARE FREED

I ADMIT MY FAILURE
OPACITY HAS DULLED MY SENSES
CONFORMITY CONTROLLED BY LIFELESS VICES
COVETOUSNESS DISGUISED AS AMBITION
BUT NOW IT ENDS NOT WITH DEFEAT
BUT DETERMINATION
