Shadows of Our Madness
A restless wind dances in the trees
As it blows through the window
Cold forgotten light is shimmering forever
No one's left to hear the silence of the music
Lonely Angels singing psalms of Forgiveness
To a murdered God slain by his creation
Thoughts of his works just left unsaid
Though it never really mattered
Where did we go? Have we left this place in Sadness?
Why did we go? With Eternal Darkness
When did we go? Fallen from our Father
How could we go? Into Shadows of our Madness
