Shadows Keep Their Mercy

In sky pale and grey sparkles a tiny star
Shining bright through the clouds
Leading lost souls to the light of life

Snow falls while silence seduces my heart
Withering dawn of lifetime, dream joined cold rain
Path on water glass became a beginning of part
New chapter of story buried alive in ice grave

Tonight shadows keep their mercy
To lead lost ones through the dark
No hatred, no hypocrisy
No cursing lies of cruel art
In the darkness lost I am
For dreams I’ll come again

Fading away in dusty gloom
Withering in spring bloom
Searching for truth
Reading old tales I once knew
Following hidden path of doom

Dancing at midnight lake
Walking the tideline
Follow every step that I take
Fly with child’s kite

Tonight shadows give their mercy
To set free, to ease the pain
No hypocrisy
Left in them
Nomore…

Tonight shadows keep their mercy
To lead lost ones through the dark
No hatred, no hypocrisy
No cursing lies of cruel art
In the darkness lost I am
For dreams I’ll come again

Love burning inside, treasures are still lost in mind
Secret is hidden in dark grave within my heart
Shadows keep their mercy tonight
