Floating all around
I see a dream
That taunts me
As it sparkles
Always out of reach

Forever I have run
Pace unchanging,
Desire enduring,
And forever I will run
For my forbidden stardust

I chase
The impossible,
The otherworldly,
And yet
I believe in hope

I believe in dreams
Someday, may I be
Deserving of this dream
That is my life
For I believe in me

She stepped to the edge of her world
Cloaked in night, her mind would not quell
Wails everlasting, endless woe
And as she spread her wings, she fell

Exhaustion stole away her
Life, desolate of all as well
Not a spark of soul to recur
And as she spread her wings, she fell

Jagged rocks and frigid waves await
Silver moon in her gaze a spell
Cloud blown in efflorescent fate
And as she spread her wings, she fell

Lone tear in fate to defy
Soft breeze her calm fear to dispel
A smile to death for angels fly
And as she spread her wings, she fell

She stepped to the edge of her world
And as she spread her wings, she fell

Inside Death our souls mourn
For all given and lost
Lives turn to bitter shade
For all those left behind
To dream of days gone by

Change is never easy
Hurt fills the air
Floods our twisted heart
In the void of those abducted
Into the moonless terror that awaits

Solace of peace stolen too
Ripped from us all
To follow life to Death
In honor and in Love
Thou shalt never die

Our evening embraces dawn
In souls cold and dreary
Change is never easy
For Death's Love forever final
An eclipse tonight be everything

Harmless Death left
Naught to melancholy
To resign to living
With so hollow a sorrow
Thou shalt never die

Inconsolable silence
Shudders in shame
Fallen fatal futures
Torn in infinite seconds
Change is never easy

Memories all to linger
Bitter dissonance of
Fortune and Love
In invisible essence
Thou shalt never die

Death shines like a tear
Transcendent of our torment
Under forsaken farewell
Forever in Love and life
Memory to remember

Change is never easy
And so shall it be—
Thou shalt never die

— The End —
