Your eyes have lost the spark That once lit up my mind What roared for some time ago is now a quiet of a kind It is such a pity That whatever's gone wrong your engine's lost its' fuel your throat's lost its' song Your lips have lost the smirk That once drew me much near I do want to reignite it For with it I can't compare But if I had my wish Would you stop being locked Open your doors For hours I've knocked You and I are a candle That's about to fade out Can't we hold on until the morning Then we can see with no doubt But give me some fuel And hold off the breeze When you and I come crashing my world it will freeze Your branches are reclining And your wall I can't climb It is steadily rising You won't give me time But if this is your wish It's time for my going To find another lightsource With a shine that's more glowing

Dying Candle
Your eyes have lost the spark That once lit up my mind What roared for some time ago is now a quiet of a kind It is such a pity That whatever's gone wrong your engine's lost its' fuel your throat's lost its' song Your lips have lost the smirk That once drew me much near I do want to reignite it For with it I can't compare But if I had my wish Would you stop being locked Open your doors For hours I've knocked You and I are a candle That's about to fade out Can't we hold on until the morning Then we can see with no doubt But give me some fuel And hold off the breeze When you and I come crashing my world it will freeze Your branches are reclining And your wall I can't climb It is steadily rising You won't give me time But if this is your wish It's time for my going To find another lightsource With a shine that's more glowing
