The black moon stares back at me
In this romantically terrifying night
Gazing upon my weak flesh
It's my only source of light
So poetic and majestic
My body trembles incessantly
The wind blows the red leafs
Of the old and frail fallen tree
An image crosses my mind
Of a mirror reflecting the wreck
The shadow grows just behind me
It's darker than I would expect
How can I concentrate on one thing
When my head feels the need to bleed
What am I supposed to do
When I feel the need to lead?
Children sing beside the fire
Dancing around a funeral pyre
I hope to see new life
Playing catch with sharp knives
The wind sings a tune for me
A solemn tune, black and blue
One that I never knew
I dream of reality
What if I wake up
In the wrong time?
The melody haunts me
It aches me, it shakes me
It makes me drop to my knees
What if I wake up
Lost at sea?
I'm feeling safe
No one can touch me
After all you're here
Protecting me
The wind sings a tune for me
A solemn tune, black and blue
One that I never knew
I dream of reality
What if I wake up
In the wrong time?
Visions of a brighter future
With peaceful sounds no harm around
No one to bring us down
And if I wake up
Would you remember me?
I'm going home
Would you remember me?
Sing the lullaby, time to say goodbye
