Do you remember?
How we watched the moon
Counted all the shimmering stars
Inhaled the night
Do you still remember?
Do you even care?
Words spoken in the darkness
And the promise made
Do you remember at all?
How we two made the winds rise
We could walk in each other's dreams
Run the woods in wolf's skin
But I remember
Still I remember
You made thе vows to return to me
On this shore by thе silent sea
Below the argent moon
And longing still it holds me
And yearning still it reigns
For all this life I've waited
On this blackened shore
And longing still it holds me tight
And yearning still prevails
For all this life I've waited you
Below the argent moon
And I know it in my heart
You will never come to me
By the side of someone else
You will watch the gleaming skies
I shall tear down all the stars
Steal the moon from heaven's arms
They will never shine upon your path
As you roam the endless night
If I can't share the moon with you
Then no one will
And longing still it holds me
And yearning still it reigns
For all this life I've waited
On this blackened shore
And longing still it holds me tight
And yearning still prevails
For still I wait to hear your voice
Below the empty skies
Nevermore shall we walk again
Below the argent moon
I keep losing track of time
My sense of self where I belong
I keep falling deeper into the hole
Disconnected, all alone
Through it all, we love, we fall
We hope, we fear, we fight, we crawl
Against it all, wilful and strong
Until the waves take us, take us home
My mind is racing, lost train of thought
Eyes unfocused, tired of this world
These walls will collapse, wash out to the sea
And I'll float along, let the stream carry me
Through it all, we love, we fall
We hope, we fear, we fight, we crawl
Against it all, wilful and strong
Until the waves take us, take us home
Through it all, we love, we fall
We hope, we fear, we fight, we crawl
Once upon a time
When the years flew brightly by
You held my hand through the night
You held my heart
Manifold is the misery now
And the joys turned to woe
Alone in this time-eaten tower
I wait for the dawn
I listen, as if in a dream
The wail of the winds
But no one calls my name any more
For no one dares
No song will resound
No wail will rise
No cry will be heard
When curtain falls
Stars look down on me
From their thrones in the dark heavens
Do they see inside my soul
Blackness there, nothing more?
How did I become this man
When I fell from grace
The one they all spite and fear?
The one you shun?
No song will resound
No wail will rise
No cry will be heard
When curtain falls
No tears will be shed
No weepers on the grave
No stone to recall my name
When I leave this world
And when they look back to these times
And write down this tale
How will they remember my part?
How will they retell?
The tyrant and the iron crown
Old man with no soul
The shadow they dread and abhor
Not the hero of the play
No song resounds
No wail will rise
No tear will flow
When curtain falls
No tears will be shed for me
No weepers to wail on my grave
No headstone to recall my name
When I leave this world
