Goresleeps - When The Curtain Falls lyrics

rate me

Decayed castle in neglected park<br />

Seemed more sullen after dark.<br />

Grey aged walls, overgrew with ivy.<br />

In every stone felt the fatal destiny.<br />

<br />

Bygone fame, left in the past.<br />

Like withered leaves flayed away with the wind<br />

Departed greatness, covered by dust<br />

Everything that stayed with dying kin.<br />

Hoary servant, bent by the years<br />

For a long time had felt the failing<br />

He was like a father to the youthful heir<br />

For count, who saw the nineteenth spring.<br />

<br />

But he dreamed of feats and romances were<br />

Only pleasure in his life.<br />

At nightfall the youth stayed alone with old<br />

Folios in trembling candlelight.<br />

<br />

All altered as if were of hand of conjurer<br />

When once belated the strolling theatre<br />

Asked to spent the night behind the walls of castle.<br />

And the host himself met them in spite of title.<br />

<br />

Dancing flame of the flaring brands<br />

Old servant's heart squeeged with a pain<br />

Laugh and gaiety and full hall of guests<br />

Seemed that old time returned again.<br />

Amid of the guests was the finest maid.<br />

With the sparkling eyes and light flush on her face.<br />

The princess-dream from concealed Dreamland<br />

And spellbound youth hid admiring gaze.<br />

<br />

He would looks most likely for ages in radiant<br />

Eyes of colour of clear sky.<br />

Like sunbeam lit up her beautiful dark face, <br />

When she bestowed a smiles.<br />

Deep thought, sleepless night on the eve of the<br />

Farewell.<br />

He would gives the world to stay with the one<br />

Who was a perfect marvel.<br />

Where meadows of flowers unfold to horizon, <br />

Where road merges with white cloud-drift.<br />

Where breath of the wind like a gulp of sweet<br />

Honey, where's<br />

No need to space of your transient fits.<br />

Posies of wild flowers and modest aureate ring.<br />

He favoured her with all his heart, and in her<br />

Eyes was blooming spring<br />

From town to town they'd been carrying gladness, <br />

Leaving there small part of own soul.<br />

And tears of emotion came out on youth's<br />

Eyes, when a gathered crowd was so glad.<br />

<br />

Follow left summer moved on the caravans<br />

Count more and more felt drown to new friends.<br />

And once he couldn't refused his wish.<br />

The last step on scene and all for him vanished.<br />

<br />

His senseless gestures were very awkward<br />

And audience hissed the youth off the stage.<br />

The first failure nearly drove him up mad<br />

That importunate din was by cause of powerless rage<br />

Falseness could be show through the roles, but how<br />

He drew the dagger up and pierced own heart.<br />

<br />

But wound was bled and bled, every instant<br />

Force was leaving<br />

The youth and soon he knelt.<br />

He hadn't seen by now how people clapped<br />

Him, when the curtain fell.
