Crossing the Rubicon

Somewhere in the madness of a long forgotten time

Resurrect the pieces to the crime

I'm searching for an answer that somehow could explain

Why I feel this misery and pain

But who am I to pretend

The fault is mine in the end

Sifting through the ashes for any alibis

All I find is me in my disguise

Father won't you help me, hallowed be thy name

I confess I am the one to blame

And though my life fades to black

I know there's no turning back

So as I cross the Rubicon

I know I can't go on feeling this way

And I can't be like Estragon

A fool who's waiting on some better day

When all my prayers are answered and all my sins absolved

And all life's mysteries have been resolved

Father won't you tell me, why life is such a sham

And why I don't know who the hell I am

And though I'm feeling estranged

I must admit somehow I've changed

So as I cross the Rubicon

I know I'll carry on, oh come what may

And I can't be like Estragon

A fool who's waiting on some judgement day

Woke up in a cold sweat screaming

Same dream I'm always dreaming

Look out there's a monster waitin'

Comin' for me with the mark of Satan

Can't run I'm in slow motion

I can't swim in the middle of the ocean

I can't breathe I need intubation

Everywhere I look there's complete devastation

Wake me

Wake me, somebody wake

(interlude)

And as I cross the Rubicon

I vow to carry on, oh come what may

And I'll not be like Estragon

Some fool who's waiting for someone to say

It's OK...

it's ok...

it's ok...
