Prelude

My fickle heart, it burns like fire
For the things that I desire
Surely they will be the end of me.
And the evil thoughts that I conspire
To numb the pain and call you a liar
I know, are nothing more than fantasy

I rode a wave of faith and fire
Then crashed upon a lonely mire
If I could only fly again

Of loving arms and longing hearts
I long to see the day when I am finally found again
Unbury me and bear the scars
Like the weight of this whole world your heart
Has borne unto the end
Has borne unto the end

They think I'm a better man than I really am
But I'm caught between a love that can
And I life that we both know can never be
And I think about the fall of man
And the fools they were to not understand
But they now have this old fool's sympathy

The weight of all my pain in time
Will bury me 'neath dirt and vine
And follow all my days

Of loving arms and longing hearts
I long to see the day when I am finally found again
Unbury me and bear the scars
Like the weight of this whole world your heart
Has borne unto the end
Unbury me and bear the scars
Like the weight of this whole world your heart
Has borne unto the end

This soul inside of me
Is slowly rupturing
Torn apart, you hold my heart
Restore me

Of loving arms and longing hearts
I long to see the day when I am finally found again
Unbury me and bear the scars
Like the weight of this whole world your heart
Has borne unto the end
And carry me unto the stars
On high, that I may know the dark
Is only just a prelude for the day
Only just a prelude for the day
Surely just a prelude for the day
