with a soft echoing breeze
like a cold rain that will freeze

I hold on to the last of my feelings
only by a thread

bitten by her bitter words
from someone I thought I loved

tied by a ring
so far away from shore

the beauty of a life
that is now fading away

what once felt like a lifetime
is now only a short dream

the visions of her are now jaded
and are no longer clear

there's no pain or hope
of a life I will never know

all I ever wanted
was the direction of the hour

so miss leading
I didn't question her beliefs

into the darkness I will go
now everything is gone

and i'm know alone
walking in her garden

her garden of old dreams
i will now wash my hands
