End of the Dream
By the Filk Elf
Now the sun is slowly fading,
And the moonlight starts to gleam,
Fondest wishes masquerading
As a pointless, endless dream.
And it's there along the skyline
As I search for where you are,
That I feel those wishes combine
To a shining silver star.
-
Am I all alone in darkness, am I all alone in pain?
Is there no one left to guide me through this dark city of rain?
Oh, no, I know you're near me; feel our fingers intertwine.
But the wish that brings us here, is it ours or only mine?
-
If you need me, when you need me,
I will be here for you always.
Let me hold you, let me save you
From the shattered windows, and the empty hallways.
-
Now the sun is quickly sinking
Casting shadows in the sand.
And a stray machine is thinking
That he'd like to hold your hand.
Could I stop running long enough
To kiss your lips again?
Would that free my conscience of
It's heavy shroud of pain?
-
For I'm all alone in darkness, where no frozen bond can break.
And I fear this nightmare is the one from which I'll never wake.
In the chains of the destroyer I fear I'll not be set free.
Or is can wish within my heart bring you here to me?
-
Are you near me, can you hear me
As my voice grows to a scream?
Do not despair, I will be there
Close by your side at the end of the dream.
