Childhood's end

Never will I follow you
And you''ll never walk behind
There is solace within reach
Though your madness leaves you blind

Buried in unspoken fears
Daylight seems so far away...

Never will you find a way
From this pain you cannot hide
Like a child in the night
Searching for a glimpse of sky

On and on it burns
Coldness with no warmth in sight
Dead to the world outside
Rapture eludes you...

Moonlight falls in endless waves
Drains the life from your veins
Takes the life from your hands
Bleak is the path to childhood''s end

On and on it burns
Coldness with no warmth in sight
Dead to the world outside
Darkness surrounds you...
