Antichrisis

The Way

Antichrisis


Up on the balcony 
I watched you walk away but I couldn't see 
that this parting kiss was forever, oh come back to me 
Yet another summer without you, soon fall will be there 
but comes winter I guess I'll be over in Cornwall somewhere 

I try walking in our footsteps 
These days passing in a time lapse 
I went trough anger, hate and frustration 
searching for some kind of revokation 
We couldn't fail? How did it happen? 
Just for a dare? Everything's shattered... 
Darkness embrace me, I'm misplaced here 
This is the wrong score, stranded on a strange shore... 

The way we were 
Yes, our hearts were beating together til something occured 
Now you're up there somewhere in Scotland and I'm left in midair 
guess I'm waiting for your return eternally 
but comes the end of December, let it rain down on me... 

What have we found? Just a rebound 
was it worth the price we paid? 
What have we gained after these strains? 
Remember Penzance Promenade... 
What's the truth? The importance of who's right or wrong? 
I don't care, cause the nights without you are much too long 

Each day my heart is gettin' colder 
The burden's heavy on my shoulder 
over and over I see the same scene 
trapped in a nightmare, not just a bad dream 
Couldn't run coz I was petrified 
Tried to swallow my foolish pride 
Or cities are lost forever so it seems 
missing you so much it makes me want to scream 

Last night I had a dream 
Me flying high above the sea in the sky 
with my arms wide open dazzling clouds passing by 
And the mermaids' song guiding me on my way 
to the coastline with its cliffs of chalk and clay 

I'm trying hard to keep my eyes shut 
The things I see they are not clear-cut 
No matter how I try to get you out of my mind 
somewhere you're still there and I wish that I was blind 
This time there'll be no substitution 
just like with former dissolutions 
Occupying my heart hence there'll be no new start 
A devotion as deep as the ocean 

A saturday back in September 
the golden sunlight in your eyes 
This day I always will remember 
You were the fairest of all brides 

The sun has gone, we're on our own 
Our paradise, a fragile dream 
A void is calling, and I'm falling 
into time's adamant stream 
Called your name into the night but you're gone 
Still a flame might arise from the embers at dawn 

I want to be again on our way back home 
I want to be again on our way back home 
I want to be again on our way back home 
I want to be again on our way back home 

Come to me, come to me 
come to me across the sea 
come to me, come to me 
together in eternity...
