Let me die (let me die)
I cried as the curtain fell
And I stared in hate at the world before me
My weeping eyes could not bear to tell
Of the shattered kingdom in ruins before me
What became of the lands that were?
A pearl in the nest of memories
Forever lost
Departed by the minds of men
Scavengers, feeding on your mother's blood
Parasites of life
With my heart I condemn your ignorant ways
Like the leaves of the high trees
I wither and fall
Borne by autumnal winds
To my funeral hall
I'm all alone
In the grip of the silent sadness
I have been told to honour life
And what therein I'll find
But if all I see is darkness
Let me die and wake up blind
...as the gleaming blade before me
Singing lullabies of loss
(let me die)
Whispering "death is your redeem
To the paradise you've lost"
Mankind
Evoker of inferno
Let me burn your honoured crown of creation
And dethrone you to ashes
For aeons to come
Why should I stay here where I do not belong?
Of weakness burns my within
An empty shell
I've lost the way to the sanctity I need
I'll greet the dawn that brings no life
No frail beams of sun to cleanse the black night
My mournful roam has ended
I hide in the shadows while biding my time
Sheltered from this world which disorderly rhyhme
With the fury of damnation
...damnation
Once I held in my hand the starlight of eden
And the white sky lay open in a soul that was free
I'm all alone
In the shade of the nameless sorrow
(sorrow)
I'm all alone
Within a shadowfire of fear
Take me home from whence I came
Where I'll get light
To feed my flame of life
