(Verse 1)

Nightfall: When you feel the cold is it tearing you apart?

And do you cry for every soul?

Is it true this world has really come so far?

Just to die and turn my heart to stone...

(Bridge)

A new world, a new tomorrow

A dream not meant to come true

Destined to fail

Only ashes remain

Memories of moments with you

(Verse 2)

Behind a million skies

I see your empty eyes

And they look down at me

Watch my every step

And as the day unfolds

I'm all alone in my kingdom of souls

A kingdom that I've never chosen to rule

(Pre-Chorus 1)

And I never wanted to hold the masque of the death

But who am I now, forever in chains, a shadow is all that remains

(Chorus)

Now I play the dark symphony every night

To guide all the souls to the kingdom of mine

We dance to the dark symphony I composed from misery

'Till someone plays for me

(Verse 3)

All of a sudden I hear someone play the violin

Could this be the moment, could this be the day I'm released and free from sin?

Illusive refractions, no peace of mind, only echoes of my own cries

A melody that never dies

(Pre-Chorus 2)

And I never wanted to be

A reason for sorrow and pain

But look at me now

Through the dark you can see

A shadow is all that remains

(Chorus)

(Solo)

(Chorus)
