Beneath an open sky
Sibilant cries of youth dying
Enslave me with grief
A moonlight era
Oblivion's twilight kiss
Wishes in lament
Happines is a broken vision
Utopia still unborn
Tormented echoes of fallen Eden
I longed for her beauty
Yet from dust, she returned
The dream, an enigma... silent

Tormented echoes of fallen Eden
I longed for her beauty
Yet from dust, she returned
The dream, an enigma... silent
That's all
