Album: A Rose for the Apocalypse
A closing sanctuary in this shimmering night;
So tired, so restless under an ominous light
I found myself in thoughts of dying,
Shivered in bitter dismay
I see you there; and I wonder why
The silence does not break
Away, please turn away
In my dreams you haunt me still
Come, please come my way
In my life I need you still
The morrow-winds shall blow no more
So many pale moons ago;
A flower of death did grow
A closing sanctuary in this shimmering night;
So tired, so restless under an ominous light
You found yourself in thoughts of dying,
Shivering in bitter dismay,
I see you there; and I wonder why
The silence does not break
Away, you turned away
In my dreams you haunt me still
Come, please come my way
In my life I need you still
To blossom in the deepest of black,
And thus we die to flower again
"I keep your memory near my heart,
My brilliant, beautiful guiding Star,
Till long life over, I too depart
To the infinite night where perhaps you are"
A rapture through The Dirty Glass,
Cutting myself to behold another spring
So I became the exile, unable to (sustain) love,
Smiling at Death and unite with my solitude
To finally turn the blooded page
I pray these tears will end soon,
But you just left me lying here
I wasn't ready for the world
Still, I was thrown in there
