Shadow Gallery - Don't Ever Cry, Just Remember lyrics

[Music: B. Allman, C. Ingles, G. Wehrkamp Lyrics, Vocal Melodies: C.Cadden-James] I must have stood for hours The mist of dawn still rising Brushing from my face Cold tears of finally knowing The world that we had twisted The years of strength and glory Were wicked and obscene And there we stood so proud What legends we must be Really something to behold Lord So irresponsible With the powers of creation A princess crowned in j**els Robed in the finest cloth Dauntlessly invincible So perfect so unreal In one great moment judgements fallen Babylon no longer there Gone are her streets her giant towers Disappeared into thin air Don't ever cry just remember It must have been my mood I'm usually much stronger now I know there's just one way And this is how it has to be There was poison in our thoughts And there was hatred in our eyes Suddenly something came Something made it right We purged our hearts and souls And we saw through children's eyes Not stifled by the pain Not blinded by our Human nature don't you see at all The wisdom of our suffering The lies behind our ways The reasons for the end From the moment I was raptured Babylonia disappeared I now return here a survivor The rest have vanished to thin air Don't ever cry just remember The wind blows cold tonight No lamplights from no windows I am sure enough alone And I am sure enough alive So through eternity The gift of light gets pa**ed along to those of us who saw What the rest could never see Born to a fallen world Longing for a morning star Held on high For me As this vision comes to close The last footsteps ever wonder here They echo in my mind Never to return All is done and slowly fading Babylon she once stood there I walked her streets I climbed her mountains I disappear into thin air Don't ever cry just remember
