The Dying Illusion

Lyrics

[Verse 1] From the bottom of the pit of nightmares she will come From the dungeons of insanity to haunt the wicked mind A crooked finger points, a spell is cast, words can kill A weaver of the web of tears, a daughter of the dark [Interlude] Oh, the moon is so cold See the grace of her presence [Verse 2] Giving you the poisoned apple, beauty or beast Dancing naked in the rain with eyes that cannot see Calling demons that have not spoken in a thousand years Old sad eyes of wisdom tell of dreams we can't reach [Pre-Chorus] When the moon is so cold When the air breathes of evil And the black skies will burn See, her shadow is rising [Chorus] The dying illusion The loss of a friend The dying illusion Please come back again [Verse 3] The hideous smile of the Devil's child will tease you to believe A forbidding shape, witch or virgin, over a sinister moon Fatal grace that blinds and binds, assaults and astounds From the cradle of eternity to the fears of modern man [Pre-Chorus] When the moon is so cold When the air breathes of evil And the black skies will burn See, her shadow is rising [Chorus] The dying illusion The loss of a friend The dying illusion Please come back again
