Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Inside a dreamer's palace
So desolate and vast
Amidst the solemn pinnacles
And shadows of a past
[Verse 2]
You lie awake to find
The somber evening hours fade
Away, like childhood memories
Your mind withdrawn to shade
[Verse 3]
The night on the horizon
Has whispered in your ear
You came for consolation
You won't find it here
[Verse 4]
The night on the horizon
Has whispered in your ear
You came for consolation
You won't find it here
[Verse 5]
Hope and disillusion
Have sunk in mires of doubt
Along with scraps of triumph
You could have left without
[Verse 6]
A fool for loss and tragedy
The muses' senseless kiss
For which you blindly sought out all
The pearls of this abyss
[Verse 7]
A senseless quest for dignity
Has blurred your weary eyes
The sum of your ideals
Comprise a formless lump of pride and vice
[Verse 8]
The night on the horizon
Has whispered in your ear
You came for consolation
You won't find it here
[Verse 9]
And yet a subtle smile
Like thieves upon your face
With scars and worn delusions
You still enter night with grace
