Fading Earth

I knew so well those eyes
 I know so well what they won't tell
 Freeze in the window light
 You've been too long away
 I left you heartsick in the morning just to come again at dark
 Scattered poems on the floor is all I left behind
 This fading earth
 This heavy dark-blue sky around me
 I'm laying the night awake forsaken and mistaken
 Against my life I hold this silver blade in my hand
 Who am I to think you'll wait for me on the other side
 My paradise was never here
 This hopeless fight amongst the living
 I fear that age and death someday brings you to decay
 Coloured with the death of man
 A hundred years of wait and drain
 Sick with hatred sick with pain
 Your patience is wearing thin
 This fading earth
 This heavy dark-blue sky around me
 I'm laying the night awake forsaken and mistaken
 Against my life I hold this silver blade in my hand
 Who am I to think you'll wait for me on the other side
 ♪
 Why try to be patient with life
 Once so promising but yet so vulnerable
 But yet so vulnerable
 ♪
 This fading earth
 This heavy dark-blue sky around me
 I'm laying the night awake forsaken and mistaken
 Against my life I hold this silver blade in my hand
 Who am I to think you'll wait for me on the other side
 This fading earth on the other side
 I pray you'll wait for me on the other side
 On the other side
 On the other side
