lyrics

Why do you pester me?
Haven't we played this game?
Oh you tear at the veils of my silence
With no shame

Now you dare to break through
You cross this majical line
All the strength of my will you bring
Down to nothing
In no time

Oh, I would have cursed you
I went to the very edge of the spell
Only the promise of a sevenfold return
Kept me
Just short of the final key

Oh, but I could not curse you
I cursed instead my frail heart
Oh the vanity of a blind desire
Versing … the dark

Why ….answer me
Oh you bring me only sorrow
All my spells are broken now

I will come to you
I will answer your call
I will have my explanation
You can be sure

I will have the truth
I will have this one piece to keep
For all that you have stolen
I still have my secret
Bright fire
Burning
Hidden deep

You bring me only sorrow
My best intentions fall down
All my spells are broken
