I've waited for this night in shame They say, it's the grace Of the great anonymous doom Don't help me, I'm not falling yet For woe, I won't forego The moment of great anonymous doom
Still awake, it may take all day So silent and slow, like infinite flow The fuel of great anonymous doom
Not for me a wish For hope or for mirth I long to be tied in a coil of rebirth Absent and pale In black-eyed night I'd hate to be wrapped in a veil of delight
Once I leave In graceful flames, I long to be burned Once all leave Once when I leave, I never return
In a dream that flies over the darkest lullabies This was my fate, a wish to sedate In presence of great anonymous doom My wish, was to be just like this A dark distant shade that lingers, delays In coming of great anonymous doom
Not for me a wish For hope or for mirth I long to be tied in a coil of rebirth Absent and pale In black-eyed night I'd hate to be wrapped in a veil of delight
Once I leave In graceful flames, I long to be burned Once all leave Once when I leave, I never return
Once I leave In graceful flames, I long to be burned Once all leave Once when I leave, I never return
Once I leave In graceful flames, I long to be burned Once all leave Once when I leave, I never return
