The heavens never seemed so E7near. All of my body glows with Amflame. Dm The tempest struggles in the Amair. Dm And to myself alone I Amsing. It could sink me then and E7there, I can hear the echoes Amring. Dm I try to find one smilin' Amface Dm To drive the shadows from my Amhead. I'm stranded in this nameless E7place, Lyin' restless in a heavy AmbedVerse: Tell me straight out if you will, Why must you torture me within? Why must you come down from your high hill? Throw my fate to the clouds and wind Far away in a silent land Secret thoughts are hard to bear. Remember me, you'll understand: Emotions we can never share. You trampled on me as you passed, Left the coldest kiss upon my brow. All my doubts and fears are gone at last, I've nothing more to tell you now. Verse: I walk by tranquil lakes and streams As each new season's dawn awaits I lay awake at night with troubled dreams The enemy is at the gates Beneath the thunder-blasted trees The words are ringing off your tongue The ground is hard in times like these The stars are cold, the night is young, The rocks are bleak, the trees are bare, Iron clouds go floating by. Snowflakes falling in my hair Beneath the gray and stony sky. Verse: The evening sun is sinking low, The woods are dark, the town is too. They'll drag you down, they run the show. Ain't no tellin' what they'll do. Tell ol' Bill when he comes home: Anything is worth a try. Tell him that I'm not alone, That the hour has come to do or die. All the world I would defy, Let me make it plane as day. I look at you now and I sigh, How could it be any other way?
