|
Fragments of my life |
|
Are slipping through time |
|
In washed out memories |
|
I just can't seem to find |
|
It seems I break |
|
All my fragile dreams |
|
When I call |
|
The angel into me |
|
So what have I done? |
|
What have I done? |
|
Have I made you proud |
|
Or have I driven you away? |
|
Her eyes are complicated |
|
Silently she slips away |
|
And in her wake I find |
|
A cascade of regret |
|
All that I believe in |
|
The anchors in my heart |
|
Cannot be for nothing |
|
But we still stand apart |
|
In silence |
|
It seems I break |
|
All my fragile dreams |
|
When I call |
|
The angels back to me |
|
So what have I done? |
|
What have I done? |
|
When time has claimed my fire |
|
And left me in exile |
|
Shadows cross in essence |
|
That's part of what I am |
|
When you try to see the angel |
|
Standing like a man |
|
Paper hearts and faded pictures |
|
That we cherished all the while |
|
And guard of distant forests |
|
Raining tears placed in exile |
|
What have I done? |
|
Who have I become? |
|
Though these words may come alive |
|
Poets and prophets die. |
|
God, are you sleeping? |
|
God, are you dreaming? |
|
Are you watching me tonight, |
|
Finding tears to mark the time? |
|
God, are you sleeping? |
|
God, are you dreaming? |
|
Are you crying for my life? |
|
Falling angels in exile |
|
(God, are you sleeping?) |
|
Never give up. |
|
(God, are you dreaming?) |
|
Never give in. |
|
There is fight within. |
|
Do you hear me in the dark? |
|
(God, are you sleeping?) |
|
Never give up |
|
(God, are you dreaming?) |
|
Never give in |
|
There is fight within |
|
And I long to see your smile |
|
What have I done? |
|
Who have I become? |
|
Though these words may come alive |
|
Poets and prophets die... |
