I was born admist
the purple waterfalls
I was weak yet not unblessed
Dead to the world
Alive for the journey
One night I dreamt
a white rose withering
a newborn drowning
a lifetime loneliness
I dreamt all my future
Relived my past
A witnessed
the beauty of the beast

Where have all
the feelings gone
Why has all
the laughter ceased
Why am I loved only
when I’m gone
Gone back in time
to bless the child

How can I ever feel again
Given the chance would I return
Why am I loved only
when I’m gone
Gone back in time
to bless the child
Think of me long enough
to make a memory
Come bless the child
one more time

I’ve never felt so alone
in my life
As I drank from a cup which
was counting my time
There’s a poison drop
in this cup of Man
To drink it is to follow
the left hand path

Why am I loved only
when I’m gone
Gone back in time
to bless the child
Think of me long enough
to make a memory
Come bless the child
one more time
Think of me long enough
to make a memory
Come bless the child
one more time

‘Where have all
the feelings gone
Why is the deadliest sin
to love as I loved you
Now unblessed homesick in time
soon to be freed from
care from human pain
My tale is the most bitter truth
Time pays us but with earth
And dust and a dark silent grave
Remember my child Without
innocence the cross is only iron
hope is only an illusion
And Ocean Soul’s nothing but a name
The Child bless thee
And keep thee forever
