The Masquerade

Old as time
I wander through caves
Never finding what I need
But I dream of you, oh
Dressed in smoke and light
Longing to be set free
All of my hopes torture me

The world doesn't know us, but it could
We could find our way to the sun
Would you follow my echoes to the door?
If you don't I may die

Covered in mud, I lie down
So tired
But you wake me with a call
"Come home"
So I trudge on
Wandering to the faintest spark
I hear you singing softly
"Worry not, lover, it's over"

You carry me out to the dawn
I know I'm dead but I play along
What comes next, I don't know
But will you stay with me till I fade to black
