Solitary Ground

Lyrics:(have I missed something?I feel like that lol):

Living at different paces
Evading into various spaces
My compass has broken
I'm losing the way
An on-going madness has led me astray

My past breathes down my neck
And it seems now that all I can do is
Go back to beginnings when all lay ahead
A fading illusion now plagues me instead

In me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home
I run to when winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground?

I follow elusive paths
Oh, it seems they've been written in stone
And the door to a new life is closing so fast
Burning the bridges will not bring me back

In me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home
I run to when winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground?

In me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home
I run to when winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground?

I know that in me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home
I run to when winter descends
If I try can I find solid ground?
Or am I just wasting time?
Wasting time... Oohh...

This is certainle one of the most beautiful ballads I had ever heared.Defintely Simone at her best.The lyrics had always hepled me and gave me strength.Plus Coen's piano sounds absolutely great

You've missed the second verse:

My past breathes down my neck
And it seems now that all I can do is
Go back to beginnings when all lay ahead
A fading illusion now plagues me instead

There are no words to describe how much this song means to me. Muscially it brings me to tears, and lyrics...too, these are one of the most meaningful to me... I find myself in each word. This song definately helps me through.

Ok,thank you Gosia,I'll add it now.Short memory

I love this song, my current favorite <3

I love it!

"Tides Of Time" may be better but "Solitary Ground" is simply THE Epica ballad. It is extremely powerful and epic! Apart from the instrumental, the lyrics are also quite strong. I love the emotions this song gives me whenever I sing it...
