Safely away from the world
In a dream, timeless domain
A child, dreamy eyed,
Mother's mirror, fathers pride

I with I could come back to you
Once again feel the rain
Falling inside me
Cleaning all that I've become

My home is far but the rest it lies so close
With my long lost love under the black rose
You told I had the eyes of the wolf
Search them and find the beauty of the beast

All of my songs can only be composed of the greatest of pains
Every single verse can only be born of the greatest of wishes
I wish I had one more night to live

A Saint bless me, drank me deeply
Spitting out the misery in me
Still a sinner rapes a thousand saints
Sharing the same hell with me

Sandestin choice in this insane world:
Beware the beast but enjoy the feast he offers

"Oh, sweet Christa bell. Share with me your poem.
For I know now, I'm a puppet on this silent stage show.
I'm but a poet who failed his best play.
A Dead Boy, who failed to write an ending
To each of his poems."

Beauty of the beast~ Nightwish (2002)
