Wounded by pleasure in flower of youth,
Measure for measure, tortue for truth.
Passion is my highest good.
Flesh and blood am I, my lord.
Lost to plan now, lost to purpose,
Won for better or for worse,
Lady-in-waiting for you am I,
Watching moments of glory pass us by.
Passion is my highest good

Should I follow my heart to the ends of the Earth,
Would I find, in time, what a life of truth is worth?
Embracing emptiness,
Embracing loneliness,
Forsaking the fortress in a quest for the Holy Grail.
In shadows deep I fold my wings,
And let my dreams decide my fate,
For all things come to those who wait,
Who wait in wings,
Who wait in faith,
Who let their dreams decide their fate,
Never fearing the departure of light,
Ever journeying on through the night,
Ever nearer,
Ever dearer,
The sacred mysteries.
So weary, so weary,
Then I find myself lost inside a maze,
And I ask, "Is this where I'll end my days?"
Just then the heavens open. . . .
Straight rains upon my way,
A thousand secrets glow
Like candles in the glistening snow
They guide me on to higher ground,
I spread my wings upon the sound
Of children's laughter; lifts my spirits
Beyond the realm of restless wraiths,
Of hungry ghosts, who test my faith,
Who paint their tinselled tombs,
By day and night with gilded gloom.
Sweet Mercy takes my hand, and
Leads me to the promised land, where
Sweet Fortune fills my cup to overflowing.
Skies of violet,
Eyes of love reflecting firelight.
I seize the day.
I seize the stars, the moon, the velvet night.
A moment lost, I now have found
In time with thee,

I am the silence that enshrouds thee
in moments of deep contemplation of loss,
And in sadness it is I who enfolds thee
in a mantle of darkness,
It is I who olds thee, who smother thy madness
It is I who lies in the tomb and dies with thee...
And when I descend into thy broken dreams thy vision to mend,
I hear thy silent screams,
Bring me thy broken dreams,
I hear thy silent screams,

Look to the sky, I feel dead inside
My wings subside, I see hope die
I am alone and every day
I wish that death would come take me away
Cut out the pain that I feel inside
I die...
In spite of it all; you hurt me and you'll never know
This feeling of shame
The lies that you told add fuel to the fire of my pain
You conceal the blame
The seeds that I've sown know not of this pain that I own
I hold it inside
And swallow my pride, it burns me inside
Show me my life; Broken
Show me my life; Wasted
Show me my life; Empty
This was life, take me now
Burdened by shame, wasted away all of my days
Out of the cold I feel a light from deep inside...
Take to the sky, I soar like a bird
My wings spread wide, I feel alive!
Show me my life; Resolve
Show me my life; Reform
Show me my life; Remade

Take thy pick and dig thy grave,
All sense dies in the life of a slave.
Nonsense thrives, they cannot save themselves
From the death wish.
At the point of no return,
Where flawless, frozen images burn,
Their tourtured souls still weep and yearn for release,
From the beast,
For everlasting peace.
Hell awaits thee in Heaven too late,
Locked out of time at the pearly gate.
With naught but a sliver of a twist of fate,
Thy fractured heart
And the death wish.
Past the point of no return,
Where flawless, forzen images burn,
Their tortued souls still weep and yearn for release
Form the beast,
For everlsating peace.
And the key,

I burn, I fly,
I drown in a blood red sky,
Never mourned,
Never Known,

Take these hooks from my flesh,
Cast across the ring of fate
By the fire in thine eyes.
This Temple is reduced to ash.
This Corss this thing of hate,
Desire never dies.
Burried deep beneath a shroud of sleep,
Desire never dies.
Lord have mercy.
Thake these tears and wipe the slate.
Fear not heresy!
Draw the line across this circle of my fate.
Take these hooks from my flesh,
The flesh of a sentient being.
This temple is reduced to ash,

When the fires of Hell have burned to the core,
And evil deads are done no more,
Then the Earth shall heave with a mighty roar,
As angles of death to Heaven shall soar.
Great shadows shall fall as one by one
Dark angels wings eclipse the sun.
Salvaging truth
from the wake of their lies,
Stealing their thunder
from the gods and the wise.
All hail! All hail!

Deep in the night, it came to me
Torturing silently
Try; but I cant seem to ever break free
From what is haunting me
Deep paranoia
It tears apart my heart
But in my soul
It's all I've ever known
I cut all of the hate I feel
My blood shed and revealed
All that has been wrong with me
The more I feel; the more I ache
I cant go back
I fear more of life's beauty than pain
Thought's wouldn't stop playing upon my mind
Taunting me with what I'd find
Try; but I cant seem to ever break free
From what is haunting me
Deep paranoia
It tears apart my heart
But in my soul
It's all I've ever known
I cut all of the hate I feel
My blood shed and revealed
All that has been wrong with me
The more i need; the more I take
I cant go back
I fear more of life's beauty than pain
Once I believed
And I'd dream of a place
Where the weight of it all
Couldn't harm me
Now I know and I feel
This could never be real
On this path I walk alone
I cut all of the hate I feel
My blood shed and revealed
All that has been wrong with me
The more I see; the more I hate
I cant go back
I fear more of life's beauty than
All of the hate I feel
My blood shed and revealed
All that has been wrong with me
The more I breathe, the more I break
I cant go back

Traitors came amongst us one season,
Faithless traitors without rhyme, without reason
Yet, as ivy groweth green and never changes,
Even evil cannot turn us into strangers
Wars, thus won, are lost to fate
Hand in glove with love was hate
To return to the source of the course of kings
Lords of light must find their wings somehow
Warlords tread on sacred ground,
Spread their creed of dread around
To reverse this curse comes the King of Kings,

Heathen soul, shameless crime
Stealing souls lost in the night
For your sins you shall die
Farewell Dark One!
Cast below from up high
Leading souls found in the night
For your deeds you shall arise
Welcome Dark One!
Come to me fallen ones
Your day of judgment has come!
Waves of hate, seas of fire
Join my banquet of souls!
Lord forgive me, Lord forgive me
Lord forgive my heathen soul
Lord forgive me, Lord forgive me

When darkness falls the dead shall rise
To resurrect thy reason,
Then they shall pray for one more day
To flower out-of-season.
O rasie me from my watry graves,
This vale of tears illusion,
With one more kiss,
O earthly bliss
Of thy sweet blood infusion!
So, sacred to the memory
Of hearts entwined in flight,
And true shall we forever be,
