Track Listing:

Rising from deep slumber

Losing the crystal lake

Shattered dreams like fallen stars

Disappear as I awake

Howls in the distance

Beckon reality

Somewhere a siren whispers

Calling out to me...

Dreams are lost 'twixt life and sleep

Spiralling away with speed

Tears are shed into the night

Endless and without peace

She always hears and soothes the fears

With passionate embrace

Take me now my silent guide

Lead me through the blackest veil

Always shall I follow

Her radiance through the gloom

And never will I cease

Gazing upon the harvest moon

No matter if the shadows consume

Everything of worth

As the light fades once again

And stars shine upon the earth

She will rise and take her place

Ascending to the throne

The regal jewel of the night

Come to take me home

Always shall I follow

Gazing upon the harvest moon

Come enlighten me

Lend me your noble gallantry

Bestow me with your ancient gift

To always penetrate the darkest mist

This is my only wish...

Arriving at the precipice

Peering into the sea below

Gazing out beyond the shore

Bathing in her glow

Her face fades into the twilight mist

Whispering of her leave

Departing as my weary lids close

Drifting into endless sleep

Too dangerous to keep

Too feeble to let go

And you want to bite the hand

Should have stopped this long ago

Go now, you've been set free

Another month or so you'll be gorging on me

With your lovely smile

I see you slither away with your skin and your scales

Your flickering tongue and your rattling tail

Like a real reptile

Had you coiled around my arm

How could you ever know

How I loved your Autumnal eyes?

But that was long ago

Go now, you've been set free

Another month or so you'll be poisoning me

With your lovely smile

I see you slither away with your skin and your scales

Your flickering tongue and your rattling tail

Like a real reptile

And I should have believed Eve

When she said we had to go

She was the apple of my eye

It wasn't long ago
