The Farewell Lyrics - Antichrisis

I wanted to live on top of a mountain 

but it's cold and forsaken there without you now 

I wanted to dive into the ocean of love 

but I got shipwrecked on the shores of broken dreams 

For you I sang songs of the nightswan 

and each line I wrote was a beat of my heart 

Forever burning on love's funeral pyre: 

Stop beating now, my bleeding heart! 

For this knife did cut too deep 

so for the last time I'm trying not to breathe 

Once there was a fire in the lighthouse of my heart: 

I gave you so much more than just my love 

and you broke so much more than just a promise 

Our planet vanished so devastatingly 

amongst the mists of time 

There was no treasure to be found at Rainbow's End 

somewhere behind Andromeda 

I've been waiting till the end of december 

but no more will I ride 

for the winter solstice's child 

will pass away silently on a midsummer's night 

So may you come now, my Dead Romantic Angel 

serenade Kyrahnean Hymns to me 

Hold me in your arms 

cover me with elder flowers 

and take me down to my beloved sea 

I'm so tired, so tremendously tired 

Please wait for me under the midgnight sun 

where I will sing and dance again 

and my laughter will be heard 

echoing down the hillside again... 

Oh, how I tried to believe how I loved, 

How I tried to hold on to my dream; 

How I wanted to live - but now I'm going home 

to a place where love is more 

than just a four-letter word 

and as I kiss the memory of your goodnight 

I'm beginning to see the light...
