The Asylum
by:
Edguy
Crying in the still of the night
A yearning for shelter
Silence kissing your wounds
Soothing your pain
Darkness - and what do they know
'Bout losing direction clutch at a straw
Cherish the hope to make it finally home...
You long to be see - through
So nobody can tell
Whenever they made you
Bleed your pride away
Now you're driven by a one track mind
Initiating you
Splendid flowers
Blossom from the wounds
The stronger the poison
The sweeter smells the bloom
Don't you try to stand your ground
Cause you're only coming home
To the heart of fire
You're home - found asylum
In a world where the broken dance
On shards of glass
I see fire - ruins and fire - and fire
In a world where the broken dance
With shattered dreams
It's burning inside you
This emotional hell
And you keep on smiling
Upon the icy tiles
A stream of fire to sweep the fears away
Seems like forever
Too long you've had to wait
Plunge in darkness
For wicked harmony
Little angel thrown away
Sure'll be back another day
To the heart of fire
You're home - found asylum
In a world where the broken dance
On shards of glass
I see fire - ruins and fire - and fire
In a world where the broken dance
With shattered dreams
Now see the cornered children
I see them off the beaten track
Embracing and crying
Freezing and dying
Concealed humiliation
Now let them dance
Liberation cruelty-free
Dance towards the gallows-tree
Bogyman was sought and found
Bogyman has found a home
In the heart of fire
He's found his asylum
In a world where the broken dance
On shards of glass
I see fire - ruins and fire - and fire
In a world where the broken dance
