Morphine Child Lyrics - Savatage

There's a thief on a summer's night 

Across an ocean 

Who sees another's life fading away 

And of this life he writes 

Without emotion 

Then pushes it from sight 

Somewhere faraway 

To a distant land 

Every tear betrayed 

And never makes 

And never makes 

And never makes 

And never makes a stand 

Makes a stand 

Lord there's something wrong 

Makes a stand

Could a star's forgotten light 

A child's devotion 

Embrace eternal night 

In shallow graves 

As we watch from distant heights 

No breath or motion 

Still every ghost must haunt in its own way 

Sleep beneath my dreams 

Safe within my hands 

Where I never under 

Never under 

Never understand 

Lord there's something wrong 

No one remembers 

No one denies 

No one asks questions 

No one replies 

Photos 

Here nothing enters 

Nothing departs 

Here nothing's ended 

If nothing starts 

In your life could you carry on 

Could you never think about it 

Till in time you start to doubt it 

Then you close your eyes 

Is it really gone 

How in truth can you defend her 

If you're really not remembering 

No regrets 

If you just forget 

If a memory is lenient 

You can find it most convenient 

So you let it fade 

Till it's very vague 

Just a silhouette of shadows 

But the shadows are still lingering 

Still I hold you there 

With your endless stare 

I'm too old to be living this 

Lived to long to be given this 

Can our god be forgiving this 

I had a light that shined 

Across my mind 

Rarely see it any more 

Now it is mostly dark 

Accept for sparks 

Can't remember what they're for 

I am the morphine child 

The dream defiled 

The never ending metaphor 

I am the wizard oz 

Result and cause 

Never look behind that door 

Cantations 

Cantations 

Cantations 

Cantations 

Never listen to the crowd before me 

Never listen to the self ordained 

Never really wanted to believe it any way 

Time is fading 

Night is calling 

I am on my way 

Turn around turn around 

Turn around turn around 

Time is fading 

Night is calling 

I am on my...
