EN
I wake beneath a crimson sky The scent of dust where dreams have died No shadow walks beside my name Only silence knows my shame The cold remembers what I've done A curse beneath the dying Sun In the mirror, I am none Just ashes where my heart was born A thousand years, a thousand cries I fade where love and sorrow collide A thousand years, a thousand cries I fade where love and sorrow collide I touched the flame that never burns Drank from the wound that never learns Each kiss a sin, each breath a crime I drown inside the edge of time The Moon forgives, but I cannot For I remember what you forgot In the mirror, I am none Just ashes where my heart was born A thousand years, a thousand cries I fade where love and sorrow collide No pulse, no dawn, no final sleep Only ghosts my soul still keeps I see your face in every tear The pain remains, I disappear A thousand years, a thousand cries I fade where love and sorrow collide In the mirror, I am none Just ashes whispering undone If death could take this endless fire I'd trade eternity for your desire
