When Dreams Cease

I've searched too long for the impossible

The ultimate melody, the perfect chord

And all I'm left with is emptiness

I've chased the stars in the darkest night

The perfect harmony, the whispered note

And all I found was silence

I'll go alone in the winter wind

Sorry, alone, but less sad

I'll go alone in the winter wind

Sorry, alone, but less bad

I'll throw my dying heart into an endless pit

So that no one will ever find it

I'll erase all traces of my presence down here

I'd like to burn myself up and disappear

Forgotten by men, at last in peace

Fade like the ghosts when dreams cease

I've wandered far in the endless dream

The sweetest symphony, the purest sound

And all that remains is loneliness

I've reached for the light in the shadows deep

The finest cadence, the gentle ham

And all I hear is silence
