Anathema Eternity Angelica Where are you tonight? Wild flower in starlit heaven Still enchanted in flight Obsessions lament to freedom A timeless word, the meanings changed But I'm still burning in your flames, Incessant, lustral mmasquerade, Unengaged, dilit love didn't taste the same And I still wonder if you ever wonder the same And I still wonder... The Beloved Another day unfolds, still I exist Never felt so cold, I never knew I was turning away Though I can't explain, I only love you now that your missed As I stand in the rain, leave me to go through this I don't think I could face another sleepless night If only I could trace that elusive light In a dreammland flight to your agonizing eyes A never ending flight, my silent cries Still I close my eyes and my mind becomes clear Still I dream, and there you are... How still you lie and how your eyes bring back the fear Still I can't facen what's going on in here... Everything that I've evet felt has gone, At last my spirit breathes I see no point in going on So goodbye... It's time for me to leave Eternity Part I As I turn away from a life so grey, Where have all the flowers gone? Just what went wrong? Innocence, insanity, irony Stone cold reality Oh lord come and save me Do you think we're forever? I've been in tears Hope has dies in me But now I'mm here, I don't wish to leave Trapped in time A miracle of hope and change A swirling mass, no mercy now If the truth hurts prepare for pain Do you think we're forever? The unseen, the eternal river of understanding Persevering, dying escape Forever tempting fate Take me back A flood of tears bonding my soul with my mind A dream of love, reality closing in behind As I close my eyes, the vision dies As I bid my last farewell to mankind The unseen, the eternal... Eternity Part II Destiny, Infinity, Eternity Hope (Originally by Roy Harper) "I was not put here by anyone in fear I came alone as me, just an idea in a long chain of discovery Surrounded by the same, you. Sometimes your type pulls me out to see and I die in a thrashing curse. Sometimes we are kind More often, [adonis] So far up the beach that those who try to reach out burned alive in the searing heat of the desert of my dispassion So far removed, I never hear the water except once or twice a month when I see a mirror And I refuse to believe in some of the things that are said to be here let alone those that are not I'm trying to change my direction Ours is pathetic, in my own, humble, estimation I love the planet, the great benign she-wolf [manufacture] Spinning gently on towards the red giant for aeons hence When all the rosegardens are consumed in the flashfire of flying time She will [leave alone too]" When you look at me From your own century I may seem to be Strange archeology But when the winds blow From this direction You may sense me there In your reflection I think I feel you But I will never know As the swallows leave And the children grow I wanted to live forever The same is you will too I wanted to live forever And everybody knew When I caught you there In tomorrows mirror I thought felt you Jump out of my skin Throwing oil into My blazing memories Filling empty footsteps I was standing in I wanted to live forever The same as you will too I wanted to live forever And everybody knew As the falling rain Of the northern jungle Hanging droplets on the leaves Bombards my brain I hear you Across the room A sea of daffodils spring into bloom You are the mist The frost across my window pane And again She moves her body And her whispers weave And the world spins And tells me that I'll never want to leave As I think of you From this dark century I will always be With generosity That we both may share The hope in hearing That we're not just Spirits disappearing Suicide Veil A sacrifice in the flight of dawn The beauty of twisted reality In my heart, my dreams A sacrifice for freedom Alone in the grace of the dark The pains of a failed generation I longed for the death of the sun Another glorious revelation Destiny's plan for ruin I danced with the shadows In tranquil chaos, I lay naked in the rain An interception of light A disturbing memory This suicide veil I wear in shame Radiance Inside... The dark is fading away I don't want to be alone anymore Inside... The light of dawn is here once more The light... Darkness is slipping away Of dawn... I don't want to be alone Is here... Won't you stay? Not a word passed your lips Just a golden kiss As I whispered silently "Help me through this" Far Away One common, subterranean destination One life, another day A vestal child unveiled by temptation Innocence slips away Far away Been down so long Too deep the water that I tread Sometimes I feel myself going under Sometimes I envy the dead So take me far away Eternity Part III So little time Your crystal eyes gaze into mine A burning flame Forever dreaing, dreaming a lie Trapped inside internal eyes Caressed by innocence, a sanctuary for your mind Born alone beneath pale sardonic skies One love, one life, one sorrow I won't reproach myself this time A condemned mman, granted a sweet reprieve A turn of fate, a genial twist of the knife Undying affection for life Cries On The Wind Reaching out... How things look different on the way down Disillusioned, I've lost desire Will I burn in the unforgiving fire? From the flames, I walk away I've found a way to erase the pain An empty bottle, my receptacle A guardian angel called escape Don't dwell on the forthcoming As I know it won't be happening And you know, when I'm gone You'll hear my cries on the wind
