When the Smoke has Cleared

Give me a look, give me a word, give me a smile
This is the voice of the ghost of your past
You know me well, I may be evil and vile
Give me your hand for as long as eternities last

It's been a while, ages it seems
But I never recovered from your last good-bye
My dark soul is smothered in its own screams
And thinking of you's been my lullaby

Look around in the darkest night
No moonlight nor sunlight will keep me from you
No devil nor death shall ever do us part
I've cried for you in my own way, you have no clue

My princess, my life, for whom dragons I'd slay
My platonic love that I once had, my personal sin
When the smoke has cleared I'll have to say
I've been waiting for centuries... now eternity can begin
