Pictures of what used to be,
|
lie in pieces on the floor
|
finds himself in an empty room,
|
her voice calls out to him
|
he opens the door, but there's no one there
|
no one there...
|
|
Draped in a silken glow of moonlight
|
through the mist I see, a lucid cathedral appears to me.
|
pray for a glimpse of touch of sunlight
|
chain our shadow down, night settles in, my love,
|
you never make a sound.
|
|
Love is flowing from my fingertips
|
never in control of this domain.
|
All around me, my essence lay
|
watch the vultures circle through the pouring rain.
|
|
Close your eyes - and try to remember
|
discordant lullabies of days gone by.
|
Close your eyes - on the edge of forever
|
a chance to dream, fast asleep your nightmare ends.
|
|
As the walls converge around me.
|
castles crumbling down, everything is not
|
as it seems to be.
|
|
Once more, I fells I must return
|
no more will my soul burn. Dawn breaks the ground,
|
my love,
|
and with it you fade away...
|
|
Close your eyes - and try to remember
|
discordant lullabies of days gone by.
|
Close your eyes - on the edge of forever
|
a chance to dream, fast asleep your nightmare ends.

Close your eyes - and try to remember
|
discordant lullabies of days gone by.
|
Close your eyes - on the edge of forever
|
a chance to dream, fast asleep your nightmare ends.
|
|
My love never dies...
