(Lead: Arden)

I hear the voices of dying souls

They whisper softly with their final breaths

While I'm awake or when I dream

Images of the dead are surrounding me

(Lead: Arden)

Why are they haunting me?!

What do they want from me?!

(Release us)

Why are they haunting me?!

What do they want from me?!

I don't see my own reflection

When I look in the mirror

A room of strangers that stare at me

A cacophony of pleading

In fear and anger

By those who are trapped or won't let go of this world we see

Then in the background I glimpse her face

And softly she calls to me

(I can still taste your tears)

Is it real or only just in my mind?

(I can still feel your arms around me)

I long to hold her again

Of roses and ruin

I visit her once again

My expression of devotion

The flowers that lay frozen on her grave

This is the only place I know she hears my voice; I bare my soul

The icy grip of loneliness surrounds me

Of roses and ruin.

(Lead: Rob)

A candle flickers with no breeze ... as the tallow slowly melts away

I pray to forces unseen ... as I cry out her name

My blood, it spills across her stone ... My blood, it spills across her stone

My pain, it drives me to this end ... I won't lose her again

And this time would be forever.

(Lead: Rob)

I awaken; I'm so cold ... My body drained; I feel so weak

My blood is spilled across the snow ... All I want to do is sleep

My head hangs heavy on her stone ... Has she crossed over; I can't tell?

I hear a voice but it isn't hers ... I have lost her again

Don't you recognize me?

(Lead: Rob)

Distorted spector

Driven mad by eternity

My beloved angel has turned on me

In desperation

We were both deceived

She sought to escape and I was left to bleed

Her realm is now inside my mind

And screaming she calls to me

(Now we'll never be alone)

I can never find peace

(This is where you longed to be)

What have I unleashed?

Of roses and ruin

She visits me once again

My expression of devotion

Has driven me to the ragged edge

There is no place I know to escape her voice; to free my soul

The icy grip of madness surrounds me

Of roses and ruin.
