It took me a long time to be able to look at you Without this sour regret mixed with shame and anger And when finally I could do so and be turned loose I saw something more in your deep blue eyes
We were over Everything was perfectly solved Our memory was turning sweet The ripples had faded on the sea between us Once drowning, now rising but all was ruined for lust For Lust!
Part Ii: Ghosts are blind
The night when our lips found their way back I was rather looking for revenge than anything A closure to an old act
But embers from the past lighted up Blinding what had broken us We thought we could be one again
Leave me, forget me, forgive me Forsake this old misery Forsake this old misery! Hate me, don't you see, we're not real Bury your pain next to me Bury your pain next to me!
When I realized I couldn't be this ghost I had to break your heart one more time I had found the one but you were not this half - anymore
I'm not able to save you I know that I leave you undone I'm sorry for what I put you through But this was only embers reflection
Part II: Results of the awakening
We failed to keep the loved one safe We failed!
Leave me, forget me, forgive me Forsake this old misery Forsake this old misery! Hate me, don't you see, we're not real Bury your pain next to me Bury your pain next to me!
Part Iv: Closure
We could have been, darling On a different sea In another blind alley Another reality
Our circle is complete We can forsake our guilt Come back to what we'd built And leave it at a memory
