From the Rooftops Lyrics by Fates Warning

Theories of Flight

2016

[Verse 1]
See what there is to see
The view from the rooftops is the same
It seems there's no end
And the lights below burn cold

[Verse 2]
Thoughts of the past recede
They fade into history
And now the rain begins
Somehow everything seems right
Colors flood into the night
And eyes open then

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
There's no room for trying
Forget what was known
There's no use in hiding
From shadows unknown

[Verse 4]
No wall's ever lasted
Not brick, steel or stone
No thing lasts forever
Except the unknown

[Refrain]
There's nothing that time can't end
There's nothing that time can't end

[Bridge]
How long can darkness live in the empty spaces (All good things will have their end)
Until lights collapse and time misplaces? (How long till this time is over then?)

[Bridge]
How long till stars have faded and leave their traces (All good things will have their end)
Before we collapse and, and time erases? (How long till this time is over then?)

[Refrain]
There's nothing that time can't end
There's nothing that time can't end

[Verse 3]
There's no room for trying
Forget what was known
There's no use in hiding
From shadows unknown

[Refrain]
There's nothing that time can't end
There's nothing that time can't end
There's nothing that time can't end
