Inside a dreamer's palace
So desolate and vast
Amidst the solemn pinnacles
And shadows of a pastYou lie awake to find
The somber evening hours fade
Away like childhood memories
Your mind withdrawn to shadeThe night on the horizon
Has whispered in your ear
You came for consolation
You won't find it hereThe night on the horizon
Has whispered in your ear
You came for consolation
You won't find it here
Hope and disillusion
Have sunk in mires of doubt
Along with scraps of triumph
You could have left with outA fool for loss and tragedy
The muses senseless kiss
For which you blindly sought out
All the pearls of the abyssA senseless quest for dignity
Has blurred your weary eyes
The sum of your ideals
Compromise a formless lump of pride and viceThe night on the horizon
Has whispered in your ear
You came for consolation
You won't find it here
And yet a subtle smile
Like thieves upon your face
With scars and worn delusions
You still enter night with grace.
