Crawl through the night and look up at the stars
one by one they fade away
mistakes learned, stories told
you can never escape from oblivion.
hold your breath, look a little closer
keep one eye open or you'll fall into the trap
look around the darkness you won't see anything yet
her sparkling eyes have been swept away.
the fire burnt out but still there is warmth
cup her face in your hands and give her your strength
open your heart and let her inside
she's been alone for too long now.
glory fades and fear compels you
your heart left in the stone beside her hand
she holds it close with her knees to her chest
no one can save her, she's on her own.
