Guardian
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
These walls are stained, engraved with pain
You will find them under shadows casting shame
Some it's all they've ever known
Angels of the fortunate sons come and go, you may not
Entities pass in the night Guardians and the Reaper fight
The will to live shall win
Mares of hope ride through their dreams
Blinding light awakens sleeping dawn
It seems It was all a dream, an endless dream
I will wish upon a star I believe in you
And if my will has strayed afar I rememebered you
Will you remember me?
I'm the one you sentenced! Pennance unabsolved
Answer me! Save my will!
Have you forgotten me?
Pace the hallway blindman
For a million miles of stars his mind has seen
Think you may, he lives in darkness
We're in the dark , he's seen the light of dream
Karen, she's been asleep forever
I know she hears me, she has so much to say
The machine that sparks through her egg shell mind
The tear streams from her face into my hand, to my heart
I will wish upon a star I believe in you
And if my will has strayed afar I rememebered you
Will you remember me?
I'm the one you sentenced! Pennance unabsolved
Answer me! Save my will!
I'm a fire without a flame
Helpless child without a name
With broken wings catch me, I'm falling
I'm a question with no answer
Who are you that takes my life away from me?
Unveil the boundaries of the black
I had a dream I was you
Strong as the fire in my veins
And when I called out your name
I would remain to witness the pain
I am beyond silent black
I will be back as your Guardian
Angels in white you have sacrificed
You witnessed and buried the pain
You walk hand and hand with the fear stricken child
Strengthen the weak and the lame
Have you seen beyond the unborn?
Pillar of pennance and lore
Perpetual journey into the realm
The Sovereign Servitor
I will wish upon a star
I believe in you
And if my will has strayed afar
I rememebered you
Will you remember me?
I'm the one you sentenced
Pennance unabsolved
Answer me! Save my will!
Have you forgotten me?
