If the Story Is Over

Once upon a time

I was the scribe of all my dreams

I've seen the years turn into dust

I feel the rust in me

I've walked the shores of Avalon

I've seen the seasons change

I've laughed and cried

I've lived and died

But only on the page

Now all I have

All I am

All I ever was is here

On the page

It's all the same

It never mattered anyway

It's all a lie

So let it burn

All empty words and all rhymes will fade

As the light of last candle flickers away

If the story is over

This chapter my last

Let it be my best one

Let it be my own

I hope it's not too late to learn to live

And learn to love

I yearn to fight

Before the tender dark

For I never drew the sword from stone

There's no Helen in my Troy

I stand alone

I stand forgotten

Just gazing into the void

Come night

Test my will

Test my soul

Test my faith and test my heart

Torn apart

Make me strong

Make me whole again and

Guide through the dark

Till the morning comes

All empty words and all rhymes will fade

As the light of last candle flickers away

If the story is over

This chapter my last

Let it be my best one

Let it be my own

All empty words and all rhymes will fade

As the light of last candle flickers away

If the story is over

This chapter my last

Let it be my best one

Let it be my own

All empty words and all rhymes will fade

As the light of last candle flickers away

If the story is over

This chapter my last

Let it be my best one

Let it be my own
