The endnnThe songwriter?s deadnThe blade fell upon himnTaking him to the white landsnOf Empathica,nOf InnocencenEmpathicanInnocencennThe dreamer and the winenPoet without a rhymenA widowed writer, torn apart by chains of HellnnOne last perfect versenYet still the same old songnOh Christ, how I hate what I have becomenTake me homennGet away, run away, fly awaynLead me astray, to dreamer?s hideawaynI cannot cry ?cause the shoulder cries morenI cannot die, I, the whore for the cold worldnForgive me, I have but two facesnOne for the world,nOne for God save menI cannot cry ?cause the shoulder cries morenI cannot die, I, a whore for the cold worldnnMy home was there and thennThese meadows of heavennAdventure-filled daysnOne with every smiling facennPlease, no more wordsnThoughts from a severed headnNo more praisenTell me once my heart goes rightnTake me homennGet away, run away, fly awaynLead me astray, to dreamer?s hideawaynI cannot cry ?cause the shoulder cries morenI cannot die, I, the whore for the cold worldnForgive me, I have but two facesnOne for the world,nOne for God save menI cannot cry ?cause the shoulder cries morenI cannot die, I, a whore for the cold worldnWhore for the cold worldnWhore for the cold worldnnSparkle my scenerynWith turquoise waterfallnWith beauty underneathnThe Ever FreennTuck me innBeneath the bluenBeneath the painnBeneath the rainnGoodnight kiss for a child in timenSwaying blade my lullabynnOn the shore we sat and hopednUnder the same pale moonnWhose guiding light chose younChose you allnnI?m afraid, so afraid, of being rapednAgain and again and againnI know I will die alone, but lovednYou live long enough to hear the sound of gunsnLong enough to find yourself screaming every nightnAnd if you wantnLive long enough to see your friends betray younYears have I been strapped unto this altarnNow I only have three minutes and countingnI just wish the tide would catch me firstnAnd give me a deathnI always longed fornnSecond robber to the right of ChristnCut in half - infacticidenThe world will rejoice todaynAs the crows feast on the rotting poetnnEveryone must bury their ownnNo pack to bury the heart of stonenNow he's home in Hell, serves him wellnSlain by the bell, tolling for his farewellnnThe morning dawned upon this altarnRemains of the dark passion playnPerformed by his friends without shamenSpitting on his grave as they camennGet away, run away, fly awaynLead me astray, to dreamer?s hideawaynI cannot cry ?cause the shoulder cries morenI cannot die, I, the whore for the cold worldnForgive me, I have but two facesnOne for the world,nOne for God save menI cannot cry ?cause the shoulder cries morenI cannot die, I, a whore for the cold worldnA whore for the cold worldnA whore for the cold worldnnToday, in the year of our Lord, 2005nThomas was called from the cares of the worldnHe stopped crying at the end of each beautiful daynThe music he wrote had too long been without silencenHe was found naked and deadnWith a smile in his face, a pen and 1000 pages of erased textnnSave me!nnBe still, my sonnYou're homenOh when did you become so cold?nThe blade will keep on descendingnAll you need is to feel my lovennSearch for beauty, find your shorenTry to save them all, bleed no morenYou have such ocean's withinnIn the endnI will always love younnThe beginning
