Solace

[Please Leave Me]

Chapter I

on the edge of my dark past my history
on my mind there was emptiness and freedom from memory
every sound fell on my deaf heart in tranquillity

inside my heart there was only frozen passions
people come and go but they leave no impressions
a void so deep enough to overcome the mighty oceans

and so as the days pass and grew old
through winter or summer the flames were always cold
inside my soul there was nothing to behold

here comes the day they swim in the ocean's deep
i watch them drown as i lay down to sleep
and thus my heart refused them to stay and keep

Chapter II

as i wake up bathed in the light of day
another fantasy i hunt down to slay
another empty game i wanted to play

a new victim knocks down on my door
full of despair she trembles on the floor
and i walk her through this haunted shore

but when time comes for the last farewell
instead of running free she choose my cell
in their hearts they always knew in here love does not dwell

and so they walk on the shores of coal
mistaken these burned ashes for gold
but when the time comes like a page in a book they are fold

Chapter III

through the darkness and the clouds of storm
another one has lost her way faraway from home
unaware of the risk forward she presses and roam

from a distance the wind seems to tease her hair
the glimpse in her eyes forced the shadows back into their lair
these simple words of praise would not be just nor fair

with every step she took near
the shell around my heart begins to sear
and it's cracking sound i could hear

the ashes she stepped on became glowing green
the darkness retreats and is nowhere to be seen
and as we stand face to face separated by the past inbetween
