Lyrics The Agony and the Ecstasy - D.O.A.

The Agony and the Ecstasy

What is happening to me
Don’t recognize these faces
I don’t know where I’ve been but I know that emptiness
I have felt it before
Thought I was turning a new page, new phase
These days I don’t know
I’m still stuck in a maze
Encased in my own mind
You’re pulling some of me out but half is left behind
The separation remains but in a moment so fleeting
We are meeting for the first time
Connected by the palm of our hands
And the agony and the ecstasy
Keeps me waiting
My body is breaking
The agony and your empathy
Wait for me whilst I am gone
It won’t be long
I don’t know who you are but I know I should remember
My anger grips to the chair
The fog is drowning me
But suddenly there is light
The revelation’s elating, bracing, frightening all at once
We don’t have long, just long enough to hold you
Until the shadows return and take the rest of me
But for this moment, I’m here
And I remember you greatly, fiercely
You and me are one
Connected by a love that won’t die
And the agony and the ecstasy
Keeps me waiting
My body is breaking
The agony and your empathy
Wait for me whilst I am gone
It won’t be long
