In dreamland grandeur
I held mesmerised peace
Innocence breathed again
A mind1s escape
Leave walls of tears behind
Ethereal vision haunting still.....
The solitude left me blind
Beneath an open sky
Sibilant cries of youth dying
Enslave me with grief
A moonlit era, oblivion1s twilight kiss
Wishes in lament
Happiness in a broken vision
Utopia still unborn.....
Tormented echoes of a fallen Eden
I longed for her beauty
Yet from dust, she returned
The dream, an enigma.... silent
Tonight your soul sleeps,
but one day you will feel real pain,
maybe then you will see me as I am,
A fragile wreck on a storm of emotion"
Countless times I trusted you,
I let you back in,
Knowing... Yearning... you know
I should have run... but I stayed
Maybe I always knew,
My fragile dreams would be broken for you.
Today I introduced myself,
To my own feelings,
In silent agony, after all these years,
They spoke to me... after all these years
Maybe I always knew...
The fragments of connection died
Some things just won't fade with time
Hide behind a transparent eye
You can't see me but I can you...
Betray without a moment's thought
Regret nothing but getting caught
Your time has come and here I stand
Why should I hold out my hand to you...
I could never turn to you
Silenced by that look in your eye
Feel I'm slipping back again
Black cold night I toss and turn I'm sinking, feel so... drained
Shroud me, blind me, sick, weak, empty, drag me... into pain
I tried so hard, don't drown me, bound to me, self indulgently... crazed
Black as coal, my sunken soul, will it ever be... saved?
Come on and twist that knife again
Well I'd like to see you fucking try
Never going back again
An answer won't come from me
Confront your own worst enemy
What does your mirror see
Is it time to face up to me?
