No More Of This Madness Lyrics by Jonathan Christenson

2015

[Edgar]
I have lived all my life in a trance
[Elmira]
Neither living nor dead
[Edgar]
Caught up in a sinister dance
[Elmira]
Holding on by a thread
[Edgar]
I know nothing but darkness and gloom
[Elmira]
Overshadowed by doubt
[Edgar]
The persistent sensation of doom
[Elmira]
Never venturing out
[Edgar]
And this dark, this destructive romance
[Elmira]
Always holding me back
[Edgar]
Has left my fate to unmerciful chance
[Elmira]
Never daring to act
[Edgar]
And left me inexplicably, hopelessly sad
[Elmira]
Oh I longed for a friend
[Edgar]
Even more unaccountably, utterly mad
[Elmira]
How I yearned for thе end
[Edgar, Elmira]
And every hopе (The years I've grieved)
I have held (For I believed)
Is erased (The one I loved the most I'd love forever)
Every dream (I had betrayed)
From my heart (The plans I'd made)
Has been chased (I'd lost my nerve and paid the bitter price)
And the horrible (The dreadful fact)
Truth (Of what I lacked)
I must face (A heart which held a single true emotion)
Is my life (An empty shell)
Might have all (A living hell)
Been a waste (They'll be no sense, farewell if this is all!)
[Edgar]
For the voices berating, fear never abating
I stood at the door ever watching, and waiting
Haunted by visions I never could shake
I have moved through my life
Never fully awake
[Both]
So no more of this madness
No more of this sin
Time to end all this sadness
This sickness within
Though the good and the bad and the best may be gone
Though the night has been long
I can now see the dawn
So to dreams say goodbye
I won't lie down and die
I will no longer just let my life pass me by
I'll be fearless and bold
Of my future, take hold
I will bury the past
Join the living at last
In the world, see the good
In my life as I should
Find the joy until now
That I just never could!
