Nightingale
No perception of passing time
The words struggle to escape her mind
New perspectives to redefine
Birdsong awakens her from the storm
Shuffle the sequence of old paradigms
The rhyme and meter still misaligned
Another page lay burning in the fire
The ink and the feather hold their secrets well
Nightingale
I dream in daylight
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unraveled
I'm ever of the chosen
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by my inner totem
Poetic justice arriving after all
When characters and places start to form
A sullen emperor endures his requiem
Can he live with this lament?
A mechanical animal, a dangerous game
That clockwork song it sings will send you to your grave
Now heed the nightingale's cautionary tale
Away, away, for I will fly to thee
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unraveled
I'm ever of the chosen
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by my inner totem
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unraveled
I'm ever of the chosen
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by the totem inside
Dig in with your claws
I push my talons into your skin
Heal me with your song
You are forgiven for all your sins
Dig in with your claws
Sleep now in blissful anesthesia
Heal me with your song
Still no perception of passing
Nightingale
I dream in daylight
Nightingale mine
See me take flight
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unravel me (unravel me)
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by the totem
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unravel me (unravel me)
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by the totem
The words struggle to escape her mind
New perspectives to redefine
Birdsong awakens her from the storm
Shuffle the sequence of old paradigms
The rhyme and meter still misaligned
Another page lay burning in the fire
The ink and the feather hold their secrets well
Nightingale
I dream in daylight
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unraveled
I'm ever of the chosen
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by my inner totem
Poetic justice arriving after all
When characters and places start to form
A sullen emperor endures his requiem
Can he live with this lament?
A mechanical animal, a dangerous game
That clockwork song it sings will send you to your grave
Now heed the nightingale's cautionary tale
Away, away, for I will fly to thee
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unraveled
I'm ever of the chosen
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by my inner totem
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unraveled
I'm ever of the chosen
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by the totem inside
Dig in with your claws
I push my talons into your skin
Heal me with your song
You are forgiven for all your sins
Dig in with your claws
Sleep now in blissful anesthesia
Heal me with your song
Still no perception of passing
Nightingale
I dream in daylight
Nightingale mine
See me take flight
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unravel me (unravel me)
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by the totem
One fateful night
Unspoken bonds
Unravel me (unravel me)
My signal fire
Still burning
I feel like I'm guided by the totem
