I cannot wake from the nightmare
My greatest fear this is real, and not a dream
If i could wish these deeds undone
I know i couldn’t stopped the decay, once it had begun
Should i lament this decline,
Cherish a requiem for time?
Should i lament this decline,
Cherish this requiem?
There is no way i can change your direction
The path you walk is chosen to gain distance from here
But you are blinded by the weakest reflection
And the motive for betrayal remains unclear
Should i lament this decline,
Cherish a requiem for time?
Should i lament this decline,
Cherish this requiem?
Come light and shine through this sadness,
And shades of darkness
By winter’s grey dawn my lost soul is blessed,
And shades of darkness
Driven to fall by this bitter temptress,
Into shades of darkness
When i needed you more i was only offered less,
And in shades of darkness bound
I wear a mask to hide my intention,
I must escape to quieten these screams of discontentment
You cannot see how far you are falling,
When all words of care meet tears of resentment
Should i lament this decline,
Cherish a requiem for time?
Should i lament this decline,
Cherish this requiem?
Come light and shine through this sadness,
And shades of darkness
By winter’s grey dawn my lost soul is blessed,
And shades of darkness
Driven to fall by this bitter temptress,
Into shades of darkness
When i needed you more i was only offered less,
And in shades of darkness bound
