before the tired eyes of time took a close-up shot of the truth behind the lies
before the beast they all liked better than the man put itself to sleep and died
before all the signs of kindness were withdrawn with just one word
before silence broke the tired cheers you deny you ever heard
before we fought down the sparkling mirage of being in control
before the golden dawn shed daylight over the most eternal goal
that's when we believed.
that's when we had it all.
