Beneath the Moon's enchanted gaze
Four shadows danced in twilight's maze
Whispers called from the hollow tree
A lullaby in a minor key

The wind grew still, the ground did sigh
A silver tear fell from the sky
One by one, they slipped below
Into a dream where no stars glow

In the symphony of the lost children
Notes dissolve where time has thinned
Cradled deep in velvet silence
They wander through the echoing wind
Bound in light no eye can see
Singing songs of what used to be

They found a world of endless dusk
Where clocks breathe dust and mirrors rust
A realm of glass and feathered flame
Where no one speaks their given name

A carousel of shadowed grace
Their laughter frozen in that place
The trees remember every sound–
Of tiny feet that left the ground

In the symphony of the lost children
Notes dissolve where time has thinned
Cradled deep in velvet silence
They wander through the echoing wind
Bound in light no eye can see
Singing songs of what used to be

A ribbon floats in the crimson air
A music box plays despair
No footprints left in morning dew
Just tales the starlight swears are true

Echoes drift through the silver trees
Humming ancient lullabies on the breeze
Time sleeps beneath the willow's gaze
While dreams dissolve in velvet haze

Beneath the veil where shadows bloom
They hum forgotten cradle tunes
Fingers reach through fractured light
Longing for the warmth of night

In the symphony of the lost children
Notes dissolve where time has thinned
Cradled deep in velvet silence
They wander through the echoing wind
Bound in light no eye can see
Singing songs of what used to be

In the symphony of the lost children
Hope is wrapped in porcelain skin
Their voices hum through cracks of silence
A haunting hymn from deep within
Bound in dreams and mystery
They live in notes, eternally

If you hear them when you're sleeping
Don't go near the willow weeping
