So it begins The long winded story From a distant day Sacrificed beliefs Unhappy endings Once upon a time... Half more than friends And not really lovers Start the dance in time Premature relief Haulted beginnings Love was living blind I won't be no more alone I don't want to be no more alone Show me a sign Guardian Michael Fill her full of light For these eyes haven't seen A break in the darkness I can recognize And I can hold my breath Until these eyes, they look familiar Can I wait on the edge of Permanent midnight Will I lose my mind I won't be no more alone I don't want to be no more alone When out came through the clouds a ray of revelation So I lay down my doubts and bow in celebration I can walk the fire and risk damnation
