Symphony X - Paradise Lost Lyrics
In the cold misty morningGleaming rays awake the dawnHere I stand - a stranger in this landDoes your conscience betray you?Falling from grace - feel the Sun on my faceDoes desire still hold true?Mystified by her beauty - does the hunter pity his prey?Under starless skies all Love must die and fade awayTake my hand - Divine or Devil - Make a standSeize the dayYours or mine - Damned of divineDraw the line - come what may...Looking down from ethereal skiesSilent crystalline tears I cryFor all must say their last goodbyeTo ParadiseHas my yearning been silencedBy angelic skin of white?Love conquers all, though Heavens fallThis fateful nightYours or mine - Damned of DivineDraw the line - serpentine...Love is a tragedyAll that I have, all that I'll ever needIs right here insideLet the winds of freedom be my guideLooking down from ethereal skiesSilent crystalline tears I cryFor all must say their last goodbyeTo ParadiseLooking down from ethereal skiesSilent crystalline tears I cryFor all must say their last goodbyeTo ParadiseSay goodbye, goodbye, hold on!... So I've cheated and I've liedBeen the victim of foolish prideAnd I've begged and I've crawledAnd I've battled and bleed for it allSo I'll savor the downfall... of ParadiseLooking down from ethereal skiesSilent crystalline tears I cryFor all must say their last goodbyeTo ParadiseLooking down from ethereal skiesSilent crystalline tears I cryFor all must say their last goodbyeTo ParadiseLooking down from ethereal skiesSilent crystalline tears I cryFor all must say their last goodbyeTo Paradise
