In Vain - Caught Within lyrics

So there he was again
Standing on the edge of massive cliffs
Longing for separation, longing for release
Yet he is unable to claim liberation

Still he is affected by the years from the past
He screams out in vain
Raises his voice, but it cracks
Leaving wrathful echoes in the crest

Caught within!
Naked like a child at birth, left out in the dark
Crying like a child that hurts, forever to mourn

The struggle continues
He tries to forget – a seed of life is sowed
He regains control appearing as a glimpse of bliss
When he draws himself up, it all seem so clear
He won't remorse
His feet stumbles the first steps of the trail

The journey has begun
To return to where he belongs
The march leads upon unknown paths, giving new perspectives
He attends a funeral of the old

Finally home and a cold wind blows in his face
He watches his friends come to his rescue, or

They stare at him with a fleeting glance
He replies quietly, believes he is forgiven
But again he is deceived
Betrayed by those he loved

The old man wipes the dust off his jacket
I guess, for some the sun never sets
