Waiting For The Endless Dawn

I waited on your words Not knowing they’d shatter As they passed through your lips Like any other words you’d say They re-arranged themselves On the flowers that you lay They hit me in the throat And I was lost for words to say Time heals all wounds, or so they say… I wait for the death of the garden in which we lay I lament and regret as I watch you fade I take this last breath in this sorrows cold decay I weigh this regret as I begin to fray Your eyes cut like sharp stone Digging deeper to white bone I lay here bound and cold In a monotone fatigue I strain to raise my eyes Beneath the weight of your shadow Your insistent shimmering gaze No longer seems to shine Time heals all wounds, or so they say… I wait for the death of the garden in which we lay I lament and regret as I watch you fade I take this last breath in this sorrows cold decay I weigh this regret as I begin to fray You leave me suffocated, you leave me Isolated You leave me desecrated, you leave me terminated This blackness rises before me like a wall My mind reaches beyond, frantic as I fall I’ll keep waiting now, but I know you’re not here It still weighs me down, will it disappear? I wait for the death of the garden in which we lay I lament and regret as I watch you fade I take this last breath in this sorrows cold decay I weigh this regret as I begin to fray As your words etch themselves in the wound, I become an afterthought…

I need a saviour here tonight (Here tonight) To spill through this cold weak light I’ve been buried in this shrine (In this shrine) In this tomb I’ve become entwined I can’t see the forest for the trees I can’t seem to rise from this agony And I need to sleep for awhile… I can’t see the dream’s that used to be I can’t seem to release this misery And I need to sleep for awhile… I need release from this pain that binds (Pain that binds) Abandoned hope in a world that blinds Washed away in a crimson tides (Crimson tides) Shattered remanence that divides I can’t see the forest for the trees I can’t seem to rise from this agony And I need to sleep for awhile… I can’t see the dreams that used to be I can’t seem to release this misery And I need to sleep for awhile… I lie here waiting for an end From this void, can I transcend? I’m not afraid to close my eyes With all the scares that cover me The open wounds and memories But I’m not afraid to close my eyes I can’t see the forest for the trees I can’t seem to rise from this agony And I need to sleep for awhile… I can’t see the dreams that used to be I can’t seem to release this misery And I need to sleep for awhile… At horizon’s end I’ve been waiting slumber to call As I descend I’ve been waiting slumber to fall

What hope or reason do I have? To find faith in what I feel Will self doubt lead me to failure? Or will I find strength in something real Every time I find my wings I can't find the strength to fly Every time I cut the strings I can't seem to break this... One step forward and three steps back A cold day to face my failure Can't I find a way to re-attach? A cold day to face my failure I reach out again & again, but in vein An illusion to cover this pain The conclusion seems to remain the same But still only myself to blame Every time I find my wings I can't find the strength to fly Every time I cut the strings I can't seem to break this tie One step forward and three steps back A cold day to face my failure Can't I find a way to re-attach? A cold day to face my failure I see my face, it's withered & grey Can I seize this day? Before its to late Can't I ever let this go? No I won't ever let it go Can't I ever let this go? No I won't ever let it go Every time I find my wings I can't find the strength to fly Every time I cut the strings I can't seem to break this tie One step forward and three steps back A cold day to face my failure Can't I find a way to re-attach? A cold day to face my failure

I lie in wait for your soul, I lie in wait for your soul I lie in wait for your soul, I lie in wait for your soul The cold moon lights the narrow path A path you should not take Your wounds they show the aftermath In this sorrows bleeding wake The morning is white, the evening is black A grey sorrow settles in between Hold out your hand, hold out your hand Hold out your hand, you’re bleeding Hold out your hand, hold out your hand Hold out your hand, keep reaching I lie in wait for your soul, I lie in wait for your soul The midnight sun reflects the light On the frozen water deep A red line dotted in white snow Ever closer to your sleep The morning is white, the evening is black A grey sorrow settles in between Hold out your hand, hold out your hand Hold out your hand, you’re bleeding Hold out your hand, hold out your hand Hold out your hand, keep reaching Won’t you just let me inside You can no longer hide Won’t you just let me inside To find the one who has died What I see in these shadows Cannot be unseen… I see your light is fading, weak & cold I see your for the taking, a truth untold The morning is white, the evening is black A grey sorrow settles in between Hold out your hand, hold out your hand Hold out your hand, you’re bleeding Hold out your hand, hold out your hand Hold out your hand, keep reaching I’ll be waiting this time… I’ll be waiting this time…

I never counted on this Guess that's the way that it goes, yeah You used to be someone I knew Somebody I could understand but Now, I don't know what to do And I don't know who you are, no All those things, I hear you say You talk that way, you're a stranger and I I don't know where to begin Don't want to hear it again I don't believe anymore And this is all I know I know, I've heard it before I don't believe anymore And I remember your voice Before this happened to us And I could see and I was sure And everything was young and new but We lost it too many times And that's the way that it is Lovers come and lovers go When you think you know It just isn't true, oh I don't know where to begin Don't want to hear it again I don't believe anymore And this is all I know I know, I've heard it before I don't believe anymore I don't know where to begin Don't want to hear it again I don't believe anymore And this is all I know I know, I've heard it before I don't believe anymore Don't believe anymore Don't believe anymore Don't know where to begin Don't want to hear it again Don't believe anymore And this is all I know I know, I've heard it before Don't believe anymore

In the lilac dusk it comes Under silver stars and a glowing crimson moon Weaving through the dark cold rain In this slanted mist, I reach upward in rigid pain My light it burns out slowly As my frozen voice echoes in silence Shadows move across these skies Over this hollow world, motionless I raise my eyes Born is my burden, stinging with this grief Aching in silence, no words that bring relief A semblance of warmth, never to be found I whisper to the earth, but I stand on hollow ground Under my darkened veil Still lies my silver crown I grip with these hands so frail But still I can’t seem to hold it down Buried under my darkened veil Still lies my silver crown Waves rise and crash around me In this loneliness I drown These shores are silent, calved in eternal black The sky is swollen with rain, shaken from fleeting light The serpent's parting words Hang with gloom in my weary head Ghost-like clouds descend As I brood with sombre eyes Under my darkened veil Still lies my silver crown I grip with these hands so frail But I still can’t seem to hold it down Buried under my darkened veil Still lies my silver crown Waves rise and crash around me In this loneliness I drown Words fall without a sound and I know the purity of my despair The shining silence of scorn cuts through As this world dissolves around me I stand here cold and shivering In this cloud of secret despair… And this moment clung to me With it’s heavy cloak of dread…

…And I wait for an endless dawn To rise before me And I seek the burning of a new sun To chase away these ever falling shadows …Waiting for the endless dawn
