Aquarius

Until the ice has melted into tears of pain or fear. Pure anticipation, in hope we are, patient for a cry. A child is born tonight and love has come to life. Listen to her heartbeat, the sound of life, an angel's song. Pure anticipation and in hope we are, patient for a cry. A child is born tonight and love has come to life. Living in this nightmare and falling further to his knees. The purest disappointment, in hope we're not, patient for a lie. A child was born tonight at the point of no return. We can't raise this child, this precious circus freak, with fins for arms and a tail where legs would be. There's no turning back 'cause our decision is made. If we don't let her go we cannot love her as our own. The water is thicker than blood and we can't look her in the eyes, release her to the stream! At the point of no return, the point of no return. "Let me go, I don't belong here. I will be free, I won't return home." It's no wonder that she's out there all alone. It's no wonder that she is soaked to the bone. And it is no wonder water is thicker than blood. And I wonder if the storm will come for us? She will find a way to the point of no return. She is on her way past the point of no return.

I. Streams Oh now that I am free and swimming with the many fishes of the stream. Yeah and I am welcome here because we all just connected swimmingly. Streams of life digress like water, running through my veins. I'm learning how to breathe, living underwater, I am deeper than the eye can see. Yeah it was meant to be and now I'm flowing with the current of the stream. Streams of life digress like water, running through my veins... I start my life again just as well, this ain't the first stream I have swam. Cold water rushing to my brain is thicker than the blood that's flowing through my veins. Streams of life digress like water, running through my veins. Streams of blood like liquid love is rushing to my brain. II. Veins It suddenly hits me in the heat of the sun, a product of fear, far from human. It suddenly hits me and crushes my world, like a tidal wave trapped in my shell. And it suddenly hits me, what have I become, searching for answers in my aquarium. It suddenly bites me and poisons my veins, lost and unable to find my way! III. Digression My chosen path, the direction that I take is the consequence of your greatest mistake. When that day arrives it's decision time, which way will I turn, will I ever really learn? If I'm shown the way I will never be alone and the choice is mine in deciding where I'll go. All our souls digressed, we started as one, all our journeys will end at the same destination. Streams of life digress like water, running through my veins. Streams of blood like liquid love is rushing to my brain.

So just another day sitting by the river and as February fades I was fishing for my dinner. When something caught my eye in my peripheral vision, have I lost my mind if I believe in what I'm seeing? Eyes from around the world stare through the glass of my aquarium. Line up to see the girl blessed by the curse of the Aquarius. Freak of nature, pay to see her, eyes surround her like a fever. "Free me master, see me shiver, put me back into the river!" I won't tell a soul but I could make a fortune, all those empty years of staring into my reflection. I could bide my time but I can't keep a secret 'cause she's the great discovery of the 22nd century. Eyes from around the world stare through the glass of my aquarium. Line up to see the girl blessed by the curse of the Aquarius. Fortune and fame, she's the freak of the day, only you made a name for yourself. They fell in love after all that he has done to her plan that is destined to fail. They hit it right off, she freaked you out! Eyes from around the world stare through the glass of my aquarium. Line up to see the girl blessed by the curse of the Aquarius. Freak of nature, pay to see her, eyes surround her like a fever. "Free me master, see me shiver, put me back into the river!" "Eyes surround me like a prison, heart is beating, you have listened. Free me master, see me shiver, put me back into the river!"

Suddenly I realize every hero pays the price and with no hesitation I give her the kiss of life. Dry land, don't cry on me and how could I know the sky forgives no one, the worst has yet to come. Soaking right down to the bone in your eternal rain, I give in to temptation, she was never meant to be saved. And dry land, don't cry on me and how could I know that the sky forgives no one, the worst has yet to come.

Calling S.O.S. in deep despair, please teach me how the Hell do I breathe down there? Waves crash on me and I can't hold my breath, there's no coming up for a gasp of air. And as the tears fall on us now the chances are that I will drown and I've sacrificed all that I love and care about. Drowning in the flood! Speak or forever hold your peace, mourning in the sunken city weeps. Steal my thunder in your tempest hail, we'll surrender when the levee fails. Human corpses floating side by side, washed up with the distant moonlit tide. And only she can save our sorry souls, priceless freedom coming at a heavy cost. But I can't turn back hands of time, she knows her purpose is to die and I've sacrificed all that I love and care for. I'm drowning in the flood! I'm sorry I'm sad and with a sense of regret it fills my lungs. It's not too late to suffocate, the price I'll pay for what I've done. We are trapped under the sea but we made this ocean in one day, it takes my breath away. We were drowning and she was free but now she's gone forever, I will pay, she takes my breath away. Will we live to tell the tale but is it worth the price we paid? Are we praying for the sun or are we drowning in the flood? Drowning in the flood!

Without a reason left to live lonely air I breathe, And as she takes her final breath yesterday becomes a memory as I am learning to let go of the dead. Goodbye she cries as she slowly disappears, into light she vaporized peacefully. Silence resonates beyond now that she is gone. Wish I could turn back hands of time and die to save a thousand lives. And with fear in your eyes the time has come so reveal the sun you hide. Tears melt the ice, the time has come when death and love collide. My savior, I wait for her to return, forgive me, I killed you to save us all. One final look into her eyes, I watched her vaporize, merging with the light. Fear within your eyes, the time has come so reveal the sun you hide. Dry tears of mine, the time has come when death and love collide.

I still hear the angels' song whispered by a child that once belonged with tears of joy so white, the colour of a restless night, more than a faint memory can provide. If years go by fear and pain will sustain in your eyes. She may never return but I can wait forever, if we can't make amends I will chase your rainbow till the end. Find us a cure for your disease, spare us your ancient remedy and if this is all I ever ask then emptiness is all I ever had. Our lives are scarred from deep within and scales grow all over our skin. A miracle is all I'll ever need to cure them all, holding on to my amphibian dream! She may never return but I can wait forever, if we can't make amends I will chase your rainbow till the end. Find us a cure for your disease, spare us your ancient remedy and if this is all I ever ask then emptiness is all I ever had. Andt the calm that comes after the storm, the tide that never reaches the shore. So heavenly your remedy when love prevails, swallowing the blood of enemies. She may never return but I can wait forever, if we cannot make amends I will chase your rainbow till the end. Streams of light unite with water running through our veins. Streams of blood like liquid love is running through our veins.
