[00:04.58]I once loved a girl, her skin it was bronze.
[00:12.82]With the innocence of a lamb, she was gentle like a fawn.
[00:19.48]I courted her proudly but now she is gone,
[00:26.39]Gone as the season she's taken.
[00:34.28]
[00:41.24]Through young summer's breeze, i stole her away
[00:45.39]From her mother and sister, though close did they stay.
[00:54.59]Each one of them suffering from the failures of their day,
[01:00.56]With strings of guilt they tried hard to guide us.
[01:06.44]
[01:16.05]Of the two sisters, i loved the young.
[01:23.88]With sensitive instincts, she was the creative one.
[01:31.68]The constant scapegoat, she was easily undone
[01:39.40]By the jealousy of others around her.
[01:41.77]
[01:49.06]For her parasite sister, i had no respect,
[01:58.04]Bound by her boredom, her pride to protect.
[02:05.41]Countless visions of the other she'd reflect
[02:12.40]As a crutch for her scenes and her society.
[02:17.21]
[02:30.88]Myself, for what i did, i cannot be excused,
[02:35.21]The changes i was going through can't even be used,
[02:44.03]For the lies that i told her in hopes not to lose
[02:50.01]The could-be dream-lover of my lifetime.
[02:55.20]
[02:59.84]With unknown consciousness, i possessed in my grip
[03:07.64]A magnificent mantelpiece, though its heart being chipped,
[03:16.27]Noticing not that i'd already slipped
[03:22.04]To a sin of love's false security.
[03:25.71]
[03:41.09]From silhouetted anger to manufactured peace,
[03:41.67]Answers of emptiness, voice vacancies,
[03:48.02]Till the tombstones of damage read no questions but, please,
[04:01.55]What's wrong and what's exactly the matter?
[04:10.29]And so it did happen like it could have been foreseen,
[04:16.73]The timeless explosion of fantasy's dream.
[04:25.53]At the peak of the night, the king and the queen
[04:32.24]Tumbled all down into pieces.
[04:38.48]
[04:45.60]the tragic figure! her sister did shout,
[04:50.81]leave her alone, god damn you, get out!And i in my armor, turning about
[05:03.92]And nailing her to the ruins of her pettiness.
[05:11.16]
[05:16.52]Beneath a bare light bulb the plaster did pound
[05:24.70]Her sister and i in a screaming battleground.
[05:31.38]And she in between, the victim of sound,
[05:37.39]Soon shattered as a child 'neath her shadows.
[05:45.21]
[05:56.60]All is gone, all is gone, admit it, take flight.
[06:03.69]I gagged twice, doubled, tears blinding my sight.
[06:06.95]My mind it was mangled, i ran into the night
[06:13.46]Leaving all of love's ashes behind me.
[06:18.31]
[06:27.59]The wind knocks my window, the room it is wet.
[06:34.08]The words to say i'm sorry, i haven't found yet.
[06:41.52]I think of her often and hope whoever she's met
[06:50.87]Will be fully aware of how precious she is.
[06:54.29]
[07:30.62]Ah, my friends from the prison, they ask unto me,
[07:37.03]how good, how good does it feel to be free?
[07:43.87]And i answer them most mysteriously,
[07:54.43]are birds free from the chains of the skyway?
