Flickering, Dancing Spirit
Flickering flames creates dancing spirits
The light of dawn is a world away
Your voice is all but a memory
Deception, empty words thrown on a page
Pieces of you have lost their way
I close my eyes, hold back my listless head, try to stay awake
I promised that I'd meet you here, except you lost your way
You're fading, far away from my light
No matter how I shut my eyes
To your dancing flame, I grow weak again
My fallen friend
Pure heaven was your hand to hold
But I'm starting to realize
The need to turn away, break the chains again
My fallen friend
The dark bows to you on your quest of absolution
The answer is lost, times have changed
This friendship is now lifeless
A memory, pipe-dream, and cannot be saved
Left with parts of you, you've thrown away.
I close my eyes, hold back my listless head, try to stay awake
I promised that I'd meet you here, except you lost your way
The light of dawn is a world away
Your voice is all but a memory
Deception, empty words thrown on a page
Pieces of you have lost their way
I close my eyes, hold back my listless head, try to stay awake
I promised that I'd meet you here, except you lost your way
You're fading, far away from my light
No matter how I shut my eyes
To your dancing flame, I grow weak again
My fallen friend
Pure heaven was your hand to hold
But I'm starting to realize
The need to turn away, break the chains again
My fallen friend
The dark bows to you on your quest of absolution
The answer is lost, times have changed
This friendship is now lifeless
A memory, pipe-dream, and cannot be saved
Left with parts of you, you've thrown away.
I close my eyes, hold back my listless head, try to stay awake
I promised that I'd meet you here, except you lost your way
