In the ruins of our dream I still hear you breathe I still feel your shadow Inside me You were always The shadow of my heart Never The other half I begged for My soulmate belonged To another fate And our forgotten children Drift in silence Echoes of a paradise I was forced to dream alone Why did you leave me In this storm of longing? Why let our Eden bleed And drown beneath the cold? Alone in the ashes Alone in the ashes You opened my eyes To the misery of this world To the lies That carved my ruin Love is not salvation It is opium for the abandoned A veil of false light Over rotten souls And the fog you left behind Still clings to my bones Still poisons my breath Still blinds my heart The fog you left in my mind Blinded me to love Blinded me to hope Blinded me to life And now I fall Among the broken bones Of the world I built for us I cradle the corpses Of our children The ones you tore apart Their silence screams louder Than any breath You ever gave me Oh, angels Hear my broken prayer Forgive these lives That never saw the light Forgive them Forgive them For they never saw The dawn of this world In shadows, we were born In shadows, we were undone The night remembers What we tried to forget Only my pain remains My empty hands The graves of what we were Our Eden is dead Our Eden is dead Our Eden is dead And so am I Why did you leave me? Why did you fade from me? Why did our Eden drown In sorrow and in dust? Forever lost Forever gone Why did you leave me? Why did you leave me? This world is empty Without you And I am nothing Nothing
