Shadow Gallery - Haunted lyrics

Between the whispers A lonely candle flickers and it slowly fades Into its grave And as if knowing Enchantment slowly runs her fingers down my spine A jagged line Who waits for me? Now who waits for me? Who waits so long, so long, so long... And shall I wait? For dawn won't come Or shall I sink into myself? All is disquiet A dark, a**a**in spirit draws back from the room Time folds in two I've vexed him surely I'm ravaged by my need for light It's all I feel, all I see I live and breathe and cry and die For Love And shall I cast composure down? And shall I wait forevermore? I hear so sorrowful a sound Maybe, in time I'll fly away And trade these wings in for a life A life where I am stronger and A place where there's no sleepless nights Or Moonlit arches cover me These paintings and these statues stare Chastised and imprisoned here alone Under your stars Guitar solo - Gary Keyboard/Guitar solo - Gary So was it all worth it? To sing out my song and to scream I had the fire The pa**ion and will My dedication mistaken for disloyalty I'm lost in the heavens Statue in time Like ghosts in a prison And come undone And all those living out their lives in company of riders Silent and deliberate as they're counting out their coin I just can't relinquish my opinion that I'm so much different Insolent, their sins have drug then down into the deep The deep The deep The race not to the swift The prize, she just never fell, right to the brave A long, long time ago And somewhere lost in all the rage I was just a brush stroke away And the wind has caught the sails No one who's ever knelt here before Has stopped to count up the cost They're gone, gone, lost in time Can love be so indulgent that it blinds you to your faith? And in the end the weight is all but lifted off The stars continue on their course And you fall away Fall away And it all comes around Another good man goes down He floods away Sorrow cannot bind me like the common thief I'll come out and I'll shine Just like a caustic ray of light All of the raised here the choirs alive It's just a matter of words spoke Out over the river of time Gone off to war or gone off to hate You see me brandish the torch and The sword of your fate is real I walk alone through the spiritless void All account of my love, oh My sweet flowing love, lost in vain On and on...and on and on
