*Thanks for indulging my long intro and a little rattle* Nightmare over the ledge Now far past the edge What will I find? Into the chest Sleep till I am dead Your still in my head What will I find? Into the chest Nightmare in my bed Who is next? What will I find? Into the chest The chest Holding a rose there comes an empty prose Prophecies flow with all that she knows Take my hand baby and close both our eyes Say the truth is a lie Ballad of roses I have retold all of this What will I find? Into the chest Don't tell me goodbye Don't let it rest What will I find? Into the chest Calling the date Tracing the lines of fate Yet still We fail to resonate Steel and flesh Skin and touch What's left when it's all not enough? Hands reach out But their turned away Will it be silence today? Face the dawn or Turn tonight Lock down the past or Let go of the fight Nothing left But what we can take And What we leave in our wake
