08. Dying Soul

(Intro speech: extended, modified extract from song Iceheart from unreleased album Sea of Desperation)

I met her years ago

Since then everything changed

Noone else I could follow

In my heart she was caged

She meant everything to me

But I guess I meant nothing to her

A statement that I must agree

That she was a beautiful girl

Since then passed the darkest winter

And now I live my life in delight

Let's say farewell to those years, to her

As my wounds are healed, I feel the might

And my soul is living, my heart beats fast

In the caress of my love, a love forever lasts

You want to see all the scars

Behind my cloak of sanity

You want to participate all the wars

Of my soul's eternal duality

You want to feel how it hurts

To keep the memories deep inside

You push your dream's knife

In my heart to open it wide

I'll be your guide, your guiding light

While you are descending deep inside

My soul

Fight my memories, tear open all the scars

As you run under the shining stars

Of now

And scream my name till I caress you

And we leave behind my dying soul

You are the first one

I let to wander on my darkest planes

Where there is no light you'll be my sun

And burn yesterday with your flames

I don't believe in angels

So you must drop your innocence

Your soul, your blood, your flesh

Is at the stake of becoming a part of my essence

No more hatred, no more pain

No more bad things I will gain

Rise with me into the sky

As our lifetime passes by

Share the tears, share the smiles

Share everything in our lives (vice)

Till we become the only one

In the dark age the ascending sun
