When the stars start to fade,
when the poison runs through our veins,
when the rivers flow uphill,
when the dead men rise,
when the Sun goes dark,
when the darkest needs fulfil,
when the emptiness is our savior,
when the dimmest hour is our light,
when the photographs are forgotten,
when the time ends,
then, just then close your eyes
and be mine.
forever
Heaven knows I'll miss you
as long as I have my breath
heaven knows I'll love you
til the hour of my death.

It's hard to be alone,
it's hard to be like this
I think I'm gonna drown
heaven knows it's a bliss.

Look up at the sky
when you want to cry
I'll be there to meet your eye
just don't ask me why
heaven knows without a try.
Walk with me
across the realms
through the places dark  
shine my path
be my star,
light my fire
where shadows lie
touch my soul,
we can always try
take me now
you know how
it's not a dream,
not everything is
as it seems
I used to be,
just like you,
wildest flower
in the whole sea
I can show you more
just you and me.
The scars are fading
but not the soul
I'm still broken,
I'm still cold.

All is lost
between the worlds,
mine and yours
have paid the cost.

The scars are fading
but not the heart,
I ask myself tonight
was everything worth.

Behind the gates of the shivering sea,
I pledge my life
so everyone can see
the scars are fading,
but not me.
You were ashes, you were dust
like a burning wind
for my greedy lust
You see me begging in the night
crawling and crawling
searching for the light,
the sound of the steel and thunder will eco in my mind
be careful what you might find
Take me in the dark sea,
cut my life, you do belong with me
easy come, easy go,
rivers continue with their flow.

— The End —
