"The Ministry Of Lost Souls" lyrics
"The Ministry Of Lost Souls"
The water's edge is where she waits
Lost soul still wandering
Meant to die but she's stuck
Not crossing over
The other side is where he waits
His spirit reaching out
Meant to save but she's too scared
To take his hand
Living in a world without you (Drowning in the past)
Is living in no world at all
So now I call on you
Remember me, I gave you life
You would not take it
Your suffering was all in vain
It's almost over now
Don't turn your back on paradise!
Feeling scared, she's prepared
To give up everything
She can't stand
To feel like half of her is fading
He will choose the only way
To rid her of her pain
Take her soul now
The decision has been made
Living in a world without love (A burden to my soul)
Is living in a worthless world
So I will call on you
Remember me, I gave you life
You would not take it
Your suffering was all in vain
It's almost over now
Remember me, you were so young
How could I tell you?
Remember me, I am the one
Who saved your life that night
I was the one
Who would not abandon you
Even in death
I was the one who would not leave you
I used my freedom to protect you
And all the while direct you
Do you remember me this time?
Even in death, I gave you life
I gave you life!
I wanted to deserve a place
A place beside you
This time when I reached out my hand
It reached all the way to heaven
Remember me, I gave you life
You would not take it
Your suffering was all in vain
It's almost over now
Goodbye!
It's almost over now
Goodbye!
It's time
I release you from this life
Don't turn your back on paradise!

All your tears might find you've fallen too far
Take another look, take another ride
Can't we make them leave the hate behind

Steven Wilson - "Drive Home" Cold windowpane
A car upturned in the rain
Wait on in vain
Don't try to bear the blame
Deal with the pain
Dust down your wings again

Alter Bridge - "Open Your Eyes" Looking back I clearly see
What it is that's killing me
Through the eyes of one I know
I see a vision once let go

Constantly it burdens me
Hard to trust and can't believe
Lost the faith...

In your sleep "Don't let the morning take him"

Savatage - "When The Crowds Are Gone" I don't know where the years have gone
Memories can only last so long
Like faded photographs, forgotten songs
And the things I never knew
