Song lyrics

It's getting late, my old friend,
It's time to go now.
Say goodbye to all we had
And set these torn sails away.
You broke me down to pieces
Like you always did.
I'm ready to sleep now.

[Chorus:]
This tomb of my heart turned happiness to dust.
Days changed to lifetimes of promises and rust.

All friends around me, from happiness to dust.
And I'm ready to go now where I won't be, be lost.

Happiness to dust...

Have you come to take me home
Last rays of the evening sun?
With the dream, to where I belong
To the meadows of unsung songs.
I'm scarred for lifetimes in here,
Worn down in these battles.
I'm ready to sleep now.

"I dragged all these shadows behind me until they grew into a part of me.
But I never wanted it to happen.
All the steps I took, I took them for the happiness of others,
But they all burned me down.
Burnt like an empty book,
I unfolded my wings to their darkness,
Stepped into all those rooms of shadows,
Took those silver bullets to shield their hearts.
But I'm too wounded now from these battles.
Please, let me fall into a sleep of beauty for a while".

It's getting late my old friend,
It's time to go now.
Say goodbye to all we had
And set these torn sails away.
Worn down in these battles,
I'm ready to sleep now...

[Chorus:]
This tomb of my heart turned happiness to dust!
Days changed to the lifetimes of promises to dust and rust!
All friends around me... from happiness to dust!
And I'm ready to go now where I won't be lost!
