There Is No Dawn


The winter's fire, the summer's ice
My soul is filled with darkness wan
I know I cannot pay the price
And for me, there is no dawn

A lover's hate, a sinner's faith
You cannot see to carry on
Desperation fears the wraith
And for you, there is no dawn

A lie that's truth, the truth that lies
The music from the lute strings drawn
Sorrowing wind around me cries
And for me, there is no dawn

The honest thief, a life that kills
In your own game you've been a pawn
The mourning flute, her silent trills
And for you, there is no dawn

The dark that glows, the light that blinds
Lost innocence, the faith is gone
We two, whom questing never finds
And for us, there is no dawn
