| The path is dark, the light is out
|
| The curtain is down on my life
|
| This is my final bow
|
| This is the final act
|
| The play is over and everyone in the crowd is gone
|
| As quiet as I am
|
| I could almost be the ghost of myself
|
| To leave behind the ones who love me
|
| Is something that I cannot stand
|
| I wish to live
|
| To live and see
|
| The things that are yet to be seen
|
| Rise up and let it shine
|
| Because there is no tomorrow
|
| With open heart and eyes ablaze
|
| I gaze into the eyes of death
|
| As quiet as I am
|
| I could be the ghost of myself
|
| Hidden somewhere within my mind
|
| Into my dreamer’s hideaway
|
| Little hideaways for our lonely soul
|
| With open heart and eyes ablaze
|
| I gaze into the eyes of death
|
| As quiet as I am
|
| The beautiful that lies within
|
| And the innocence of a child
|
| Imagination that goes beyond mortal things
|
| Those are the memories that you will keep of me
|
| The love of a father
|
| I give you the ghost of myself
|
| A sacrifice for all
|
| I give you the ghost of myself
|
| With open heart and eyes ablaze
|
| I gaze into the eyes of death
|
| As quiet as I am
|
| I could be the ghost of myself
|
| Hidden somewhere within my mind
|
| Into my dreamer’s hideaway
|
| Little hideaways for our lonely soul
|
| With open heart and eyes ablaze
|
| I gaze into the eyes of death
|
| As quiet as I am
|
| As quiet as they are
|
| For you I have
|
| And for you I will
|
| From life to death
|
| My spirit will remain
|
| I have written the story of my life
|
| With the things I’ve done
|
| Just remember my song…
|
| Turn the page, burn the book and let it die
|
| Memories they will finally collapse
|
| Live your life
|
| As your own
|
| No rules to restrain the melodies of life |
