I see your picture and all I feel is sorrow No hate no love... no barren signs from above Can I be you for a while? Let me see Can you be me for a moment? Let it be...resolution Only regret seals the night where I uncover myself For those bygone days amid scenes of dread Resolve my love into sheer mercy God knows how many mornings I woke in torment Staring into the daytime void, lost in fault and wonder Walking the fields where poisoned flowers swell Embittered into revulsion Confused I face how stern and devious is reality You conquered me with your delusion Then I vanished into blank pagees already written Endurance and devotion kills each other As a demon enterns our room And something dies Something dies inside of me Drowns in the vale of tears around me With a beacon of hope we could levitate like dancing on air And there in that moment we'll at last find solace Abundance shining greater than any dream The morning breaks so cold... so cold My face looks so old... so old I rend my nails on the wall I've built around me Only in the shade can I be free Only in the shade I can be... me
