Steal a diamond and pierce my heart with its point And take three silver drops of blood to sow your dried flesh Use the harvest you get to appease the hunger of your crowd, which drains you day by day, draining you away
You wanna eat my pearly eyes to fill the void you've got Inside, sweet child of mine , you've got inside
The pearly gates you dream of, are made of mortal hopes you stole away The pearly gates you long for are made of Innocent night beings, heavenly unpure and yet so pure
I feel ashamed for your soul This war seems to reach a crying end But why your very tears they never fall? your very mask it never fades away? your very face ain't going to be shown?
And I leave your world As a little alien, broken hearted Night stained eyed Solitude-stained eyes As I jump in my shuttle Away through the ocean sky With my dolphins guiding my ride
Across the Sirengates I ride Scattering the ashes of your portrait With wells of hate among stars opaque:stars
C'e un luogo a nord di Arcadia oltre I mari Esei Dove non c'e mai veglia ne perche: :Onirica
[TRANSLATION:] There's a place, north of Arcadia Beyond the Esei seas, where there's no wakefulness nor reasons
I'm watching outside the (window) glass As street light diffuses through the hall Somewhere (Winter)'s lifting shades of war Chilling me in the darkness of this fall
The Piano falls
As shadows watch the rain we tremble on our bed In sheets of silver silk, as the world's heart loses its feel
The old town greets the pain with monuments of shame This clock slowed down its hands,Its echoing the rain Stop begging me to stay, stop begging me to stay Just let me run away
This season's out time Events sculptured in time Through everlong time-rain
Sing one Wintersong the way you've always done, for me A Wintersong of pain the way you've always done, for me
