Like a pendant on the neck of a queen Ten thousand scars an embrace of the stone As we dance on a steady canopy Accuse me, fool me, take all my pain away my friend Singing my final song of honor Betrayed but still I never came around to open my mind
[Chorus:] I was torn by the storms in my head Like a victim of a fate Born to regret Still denied by the spirits of hell A call to repent Till the visions still stand in silence Like a shadow
Like a martyr that is nowhere to be seen Ten thousand stars I've prayed for "The Calm" As we drift on this never-ending sea Clear me, keep me, take all my pain away my friend Singing my final song of glory Betrayed but still I finally came around and opened my eyes I was
[Chorus]
Like a shadow
Torn by thorns in my head Like a victim of violence A call to repent Denied by the spirits of heaven Take me up again to the music of dawn
I was torn by storms in my head Like a victim of fate Born to regret Still denied by the spirits of hell A call to repent Till the visions still stand Like a shadow
