Lyrics

There's a thief on a summer's night
 Across an ocean
 Who sees another's life fading away
 And of this life he writes
 Without emotion
 Then pushes it from sight
 Somewhere faraway
 To a distant land
 Every tear betrayed
 And never makes
 And never makes
 And never makes
 And never makes a stand
 Makes a stand
 Lord there's something wrong
 Makes a stand
 ♪
 Could a star's forgotten light
 A child's devotion
 Embrace eternal night
 In shallow graves
 As we watch from distant heights
 No breath or motion
 Still every ghost must haunt in its own way
 Sleep beneath my dreams
 Safe within my hands
 Where I never under
 Never under
 Never understand
 ♪
 Lord there's something wrong
 ♪
 No one remembers
 No one denies
 No one asks questions
 No one replies
 Here nothing enters
 Nothing departs
 Here nothing's ended
 If nothing starts
 In your life could you carry on
 Could you never think about it
 Till in time you start to doubt it
 Then you close your eyes
 Is it really gone
 How in truth can you defend her
 If you're really not remembering
 ♪
 No regrets
 If you just forget
 If a memory is lenient
 You can find it most convenient
 So you let it fade
 Till it's very vague
 Just a silhouette of shadows
 But the shadows are still lingering
 ♪
 Still I hold you there
 With your endless stare
 I'm too old to be living this
 Lived to long to be given this
 Can our god be forgiving this
 I had a light that shined
 Across my mind
 Rarely see it any more
 Now it is mostly dark
 Accept for sparks
 Can't remember what they're for
 I am the morphine child
 The dream defiled
 The never ending metaphor
 I am the wizard oz
 Result and cause
 Never look behind that door
 ♪
 Cantations
 Cantations
 Cantations
 Cantations
 ♪
 Never listen to the crowd before me
 Never listen to the self ordained
 Never really wanted to believe it any way
 Time is fading
 Night is calling
 I am on my way
 ♪
 Turn around turn around
 Turn around turn around
 Time is fading
 Night is calling
 I am on my...
