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...
And I often sighI often wonder whyI'm still here and I still cryAnd I often cryI often spill a tearOver those not hereBut still they are so nearPlease ease my burdenAnd I still rememberA memory and I weepIn my broken sleepThe scars they cut so deepPlease ease my burdenPlease ease my painSurely without war there would be no lossHence no mourning, no grief, no pain, no miseryNo sleepless nights missing the dead... Oh, no moreNo more war
