Turn Me Into Your Shadow

Beyond sea grave, into ocean embrace
I fall to be just a silence
To become nothing but a moonlit whisper

I want to be a shadow
Falling behind you
To become a veil of sorrow
Upon a healing blue
To take your tears of pain
And dry them before you shed them

I don’t want to pretend
I don’t want any games no more
Open the door and tell me the truth

Redeem me into the world without hate
Show me the play without pain
Introduce me to your world

You’re but a dream
Pure, untouched thrill
Ashes of a tale half-vanished
Almost withered
You’re the world upon a star
A scenery dear to heart
My paradise, my hell
Lost hello into a farewell

Dreamworld is dead in me
Without your tales of infinite blue
Unshared dreams
Colour of midnight lullaby
I’m faded like a rhyme
Alone upon a verse without you

I see no dreams without you
Life is but everlasting nightmare
Wandering across the oceans in my mind
I long still for a dream you hold in your hands
