The place left behind, haunting dreams Day and night today, far away Have strength upon the life you lead These mortal chains broken free So breathe, and succeed Anxious memories disturb Fleeting heights a life absurd Euphoric fantasies extol, weary darkness on the soul Upon the needle you were bred Poisoning the life you led you bleed Oh like dead The sorrow there you cannot change Driven by a soul deranged in flames Oh in vein All these deeds the brain records Twisted creed of shame s rewards Thankful vision clears the way I ll love you past my dying day
