In the ruins of our dream
I still hear you breathe
I still feel your shadow
Inside me

You were always
The shadow of my heart
Never
The other half I begged for

My soulmate belonged
To another fate
And our forgotten children
Drift in silence
Echoes of a paradise
I was forced to dream alone

Why did you leave me
In this storm of longing?
Why let our Eden bleed
And drown beneath the cold?
Alone in the ashes
Alone in the ashes

You opened my eyes
To the misery of this world
To the lies
That carved my ruin
Love is not salvation
It is opium for the abandoned
A veil of false light
Over rotten souls

And the fog you left behind
Still clings to my bones
Still poisons my breath
Still blinds my heart

The fog you left in my mind
Blinded me to love
Blinded me to hope
Blinded me to life
And now I fall
Among the broken bones
Of the world I built for us

I cradle the corpses
Of our children
The ones you tore apart
Their silence screams louder
Than any breath
You ever gave me

Oh, angels
Hear my broken prayer
Forgive these lives
That never saw the light
Forgive them
Forgive them
For they never saw
The dawn of this world

In shadows, we were born
In shadows, we were undone
The night remembers
What we tried to forget

Only my pain remains
My empty hands
The graves of what we were
Our Eden is dead
Our Eden is dead
Our Eden is dead
And so am I

Why did you leave me?
Why did you fade from me?
Why did our Eden drown
In sorrow and in dust?
Forever lost
Forever gone
Why did you leave me?
Why did you leave me?

This world is empty
Without you
And I am nothing
Nothing
