Symphony X - Paradise Lost lyrics

rate me

In the cold misty morning

Gleaming rays awake the dawn

Here I stand - a stranger in this land

Does your conscience betray you?

Falling from grace - feel the Sun on my face

Does desire still hold true?

Mystified by her beauty - does the hunter pity his prey?

Under starless skies all Love must die and fade away

Take my hand – Divine or Devil – Make a stand

Seize the day

Yours or mine - Damned of divine

Draw the line - come what may…

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all must say their last goodbye

To Paradise

Has my yearning been silenced

By angelic skin of white ?

Love conquers all, though Heavens fall

This fateful night

Yours or mine - Damned of Divine

Draw the line - serpentine…

Love is a tragedy

All that I have, all that I'll ever need

Is right here inside

Let the winds of freedom be my guide

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all must say their last goodbye

To Paradise

Say goodbye, goodbye, hold on!

[Solo: M.Romeo]

...So I've cheated and I've lied

Been the victim of foolish pride

And I've begged and I've crawled

And I've battled and bleed for it all

So I'll savor the downfall… of Paradise

Looking down from ethereal skies

Silent crystalline tears I cry

For all must say their last goodbye

To Paradise
