Homage (Western Works Demo) [2019 Remaster] Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Smile, the unborn child reaction's taken
Forsaken
These scenes pervaded me in a way that
People seldom see

[Pre-Chorus 1]
This is the only time I thought I had seen the signs
Well I hope I’ll never know

[Chorus]
In this room, the blind pass through
In this room, I think of you
In this room
In this room

[Verse 2]
Darkness will vanish soon
I awake, always in this room
All days will fall and rise
Helplessly, I watch these figures cry

[Pre-Chorus 2]
This sense of needless rejection, always the sense of reason
Carelessly lead me astray
[Chorus]
In this room, the blind pass through
In this room, I think of you
(In this room) Father, please don't forsake me now
(In this room) Father, please don't forsake me now
In this room

[Bridge]
People always ask for dreams
Revelation in a dream
A life that is so scared

[Verse 3]
This is the only time that I
Thought I had seen the sunlight
I’ll never know

[Outro]
In this room, I think of you
In this room, I think of you
(In this room) Father, please don't forsake me now
(In this room) Father, please don't forsake me now
(In this room) Father, please don't forsake me now

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
