Twilight Trails
[Verse 1]
I rue the day
The day I turned the tides
I made a grave mistake
Left from your side
[Chorus]
Now, now I am lost in the shadows' lap
Straying on this downward road
Now I am left, I am left, I am left in the woods of woe
Roaming these twilight trails
[Verse 2]
You asked me to stay
But I closed the gate behind me
Bright lights beyond the trees
The gleam above the skyline
In vain I tried to reach
In vain I sought
[Chorus]
Now, now I am lost in the shadows' lap
Straying on this downward road
Now I am left, I am left, I am left in the woods of woe
Roaming these twilight trails
[Post-Chorus]
And too late I comprehend
It was just illusion
I've spent all those years chasing
Something I once had
Long time ago
[Bridge]
I cannot find my way home
I cannot find the way to you anymore
I cannot find my way home
I cannot find the way to you
[Refrain]
With a black shroud over my eyes
I don't see the skies or the earth
I don't see if the moon will die
Or the sun turns cold
[Verse 3]
A dreary path that weaves down below
Into the hidden abyss of the evenfall
And here I stand on the darkened shore
Forgotten man at the edge of the world
For what is there left for me anymore
But to languish and slowly fade away?
Regret and penance only friends by my side
When I sink into the void of the night
I lapse (I lapse)
Descend alone
I lapse (I lapse)
Descend alone
[Refrain]
With a black shroud over my eyes
I don't see the skies or the earth
I don't see if the moon will die
Or the sun turns cold
