Close my weary eyes Under choking clouds of ash and darkest dust The silver kiss of sleep is lost I can feel these broken cogs begin to rust
But when the end finally comes I won't despair I'll just keep on hoping I might see you there
Try to keep a blank page But these memories they flood my mind with grief Faces lost forever And the guilt of feeling some kind of relief
But when the end finally comes I won't despair I'll just keep on hoping I might see you there
Maria... Ten long years I could see your ghost Ten long years I could see your ghost Ten long years I could see your ghost Ten long years I could see your ghost
And as this world of twisted metal falls I can hear the demons tearing down the walls In the face of so much hate and cruelty In my mind's eye my angel's all I see
But when the end finally comes I won't despair I'll just keep on hoping I might see you there Maria... Ten long years I could see your ghost Ten long years I could see your ghost Ten long years I could see your ghost Ten long years I could see your ghost
