Don't Ever Cry, Just Remember Lyrics - Singles - Shadow Gallery

I must have stood for hours 

The mist of dawn still rising 

Brushing from my face 

Cold tears of finally knowing 

The world that we had twisted 

The years of strength and glory 

Were wicked and obscene 

And there we stood so proud 

What legends we must be 

Really something to behold Lord 

So irresponsible 

With the powers of creation 

A princess crowned in jewels 

Robed in the finest cloth 

Dauntlessly invincible 

So perfect so unreal 

In one great moment judgments fallen 

Babylon no longer there 

Gone are her streets, her giant towers 

Disappeared into thin air 

Don't ever cry, just remember 

It must have been my mood 

I'm usually much stronger now 

I know there's just one way 

And this is how it has to be 

There was poison in our thoughts 

And there was hatred in our eyes 

Suddenly something came 

Something made it right 

We purged our hearts and souls 

And we saw through children's eyes 

Not stifled by the pain 

Not blinded by our 

Human nature don't you see at all 

The wisdom of our suffering 

The lies behind our ways 

The reasons for the end 

From the moment I was raptured 

Babylonia disappeared 

I now return here a survivor 

The rest have vanished to thin air 

Don't ever cry, just remember 

The wind blows cold tonight 

No lamplights from no windows 

I am sure enough alone 

And I am sure enough alive 

So through eternity 

The gift of light gets passed along 

To those of us who saw 

What the rest could never see 

Born to a fallen world 

Longing for a morning star 

Held on high for me 

As this vision comes too close 

The last footsteps ever wonder here 

They echo in my mind, never to return 

All is done and slowly fading 

Babylon she once stood there 

I walked her streets I climbed her mountains 

I disappear into thin air 

Don't ever cry, just remember
