Lethian Dreams A Shadow of Memories 1. Never Be Found When each remembered rapture murmurs This is when she lied Yet even doubt is by some doubt denied This is when she lied Now the madness comes down like a flood Poisoning the honest currents of my blood Is this desire, love, of this madness most That aches in me to know That aches in me to know… That you are lost? 2. Tidal Blow thou winter winds Let it worry the gods Shape the blackest day And lay your eyes on the way The blue of your valleys How I breathe into you The blue of your valleys I pray for something true In the depths of your fears I know you can’t hear me In silence play the fools But my soul belongs to you She’s waiting to drown She’s waiting to drown you Where can I rest When so many speak so loudly Where can I dwell When all has been taken from me Where can I be lonely She’s waiting to drown The tides of her soul She’s waiting to drown She’s waiting for you I know there’s a heaven, I know I know there’s a shore I’ve tasted its colour Without the will of wanting more I’ve tread the paths of the winds unchanged For so many fights were to no avail If now looking for a hand With no hope of being saved Dare, o you dare To whisper to me This is how it was meant to be 3. Mist of Memories Our soul’s sorrows seek us most with dawn Crawling through dirtied windows Longing to be known and felt But your ever somber trail of thoughts Rescue will never easily be taught If only our healing tears Could ease the weight of memories The same old ghostly haunting of your eyes And the old poisonous mist of memories Rises about me, and the old desire Quickens along my veins in sharper fire O! I am lost, you will not set me free Unless I turn again, and seek the sea Some vague new world of waters, bounded by The soft and sudden barrier of the sky 4. You Say You say you're breaking my heart I say break it all I say you breathe in you breathe out But this has to go out I say I only need to feel free But here is no release You say every end has a start And fear will fall apart Like birds toward an open sky Who reach their purpose well The softened moonlight for our Broken hopes to dwell You'll wonder where we'll all go Us with wounds is all we know And the gifts we were given Back to the swarm of a distant heaven 5. Only a Past This riddle won’t dissolve For the maze is too dense but what’s there more to solve when a mind loses sense Lost in time, in space there goes my lost defense what faded yesterday praises again a last romance Let it last stirring sea one more drink is for my fears Let is last stirring sea Seven suns will rise with thee Let is last stirring sea One more drink is for my tears Let is last stirring sea Seven suns will rise with thee He who has entered by this sorrow’s door Is neither dead nor living any more Nothing can touch me now, except the cold Of whitening years that slowly make youth old Hunger, that makes the body faint, one thought That ends all memory for the future, nought My future ended yesterday, I have Only a past, on this side of the grave Nothing can touch me now, except the cold Of whitening years that slowly make youth old 6. Your Silence In those mysterious jewels of your eyes Wrought with vain truths, and wrought with vainer lies When passion made me wizard, I have read And turned away, blind with exceeding dread I never knew you; you could give your whole Heart’s life, but not the silence of your soul I never knew you when you loved me most And now that you are the unquiet ghost Part of the very element of fire A breath, a flame, a shadow of desire 7. And Hollow Out of another world you come to me And hollow, hollow, hollow as the tomb Sound the indifferent words that speak my doom And hollow, hollow, hollow can it be My voice that sounds so strangely in my ears You bid me speak, and I, in dumb despair Forgetting all my agonies of prayer Beckon to you across a mist of tears All’s over now I know that you are lost And love is dead, for I have met Love’s ghost
