A million to one. A father a son. Waste of a life. With all these years gone by. I still feel the same. I'm trying to change. You left this like. A thief in the night.
You can't watch the clouds roll by this time. you don't want to be so blind you'll find. . but I'm miles above you're head. lives, lies and shattered dreams.
She loves me, she loves me not. She loves me, she loves me not. She loves me, she loves me not. . Well, I've spent seven days and seven nights. Tryin' to get sunk in this brine.
They call me The Wild Rose. But my name was Elisa Day. Why they call me it I do not know. For my name was Elisa Day. From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one.
I remember a girl so very well,. The carnival drums all mad in the air. Grim reapers and skeletons and a missionary bell,. O where do we go now but nowhere ?.

With a crooked smile. And a heart-shaped face. Comes from the West country. Where the birds sing bass. She's got a house-big heart. Where we all live.
Along crags and sunless cracks I go. Up rib of rock, donw spine of stone. I dare not slumber where the right winds whistle. Lest her creeping-soul clutch this heart of thistle.
Alice wakes. It is morning. She is yawning. As she walks about the room. Her hair falls down her breast. She is naked and it is June. . Standing at the window.
As we dance. Here in this empty apartment. Echoes of laughter. Will haunt me for after. Put your memories in boxes. Cut all your losses. Romance left this place long ago.
This gloomy weather doesn't break it any. Break it anymore. The sun abandoned us for blue skies somewhere. Blue skies somewhere warm. The world outside my window is scratching at my door.
You're running off far away from all I thought we had. Just stay a while let me take your mind back. To imagine if our shadows had stood their ground that day.
So, so you think you can tell. Heaven from Hell, blue sky from pain. Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?. A smile from a veil, do you think you can tell?.
She was my sunlight. She made my skin glow. She had these bow legs. I didn't want her to go. Blue skies were turning red. Learned my grade the hard way.
I breed deep in my a beautiful thing. And I need energy for my beautiful thing. But pain for days has stayed with me. Expect to see some change in me.
World is falling before our eyes. We've sold our souls for empty lies. Indoctrinations circle writhes. In persecuted brainwashed minds. . Master of this empty void.
We come on the sloop John B. My grandfather and me. Around Nassau town we did roam. Drinking all night. Got into a fight. Well I feel so broke up, I want to go home.
You said you'd always be there for me. You said you'd always be in my life. But now, oh, now you're chasing dragons instead. . You told me I was chasing the moon.
Sister sweet sister can you wash away my sins?. Sister sweet sister can you make me pure again?. Sister sweet sister can you take away my pain?. Can you make me pure again?.
[Part 1 - ...As Twilight Descends]. . [ verse 1 ]. In your darkest hour of need. Bleeding innocense lies. Searching for serenity. Where even death may come to die.
