[Verse 1]

Ahh, red sun rising somewhere through the dense fog

The portrait of the jaded dawn who had seen it all before

[Verse 2]

This day wept on my shoulders

Still the same as yesterday

This path seems endless, body is numb

The soul has lost its flame

Walking in familiar traces

To find my way back home

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

So there I was, so there I was

Within the sobriety of the immortals

A semblance of supernatural winds

Passing through

The garden sighs, flowers die

[Verse 4]

The gate was closed that day

But I was bound to carry on

She could not see me through the windows

In dismay, strangest twist upon her lips

Graven face, she said my name

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]

Once inside

I heard whispers in the parlour

The gilded faces grin

Aware of my final demise

Demise, demise, demise

[Verse 6]

And I cried

I knew she had lied

Her obsession had died

It had died

[Verse 7]

When can I take you from this place?

When is the word but a sigh?

When is death our lone beholder?

When do we walk the final steps?

When can we scream instead of whisper?

When is the new beginning? The end of this sad madrigal
