Dead Gardens

The story behind the painting I drew is already told

No more tear stains on the pages of my diaryTired but unable to give up

Since I'm responsible for the lives I savedThe play is done

The curtain's downAll the tales are told

All the orchids gone

Lost in my own world

Now I care for dead gardensMy song is little worth anymore

Time to lay this weary pen asideThe play is done

The curtain's downWhere are the wolves, the underwater moon

The eleven path, the haven of youth

Lagoons of the starlit sea?Have I felt enough for one man's deed

Or is it time to challenge the Ancient of Days

And let the virgin conceive?All the tales are told

All the orchids goneAll the tales are told

All the orchids gone

Lost in my own world

Now I care for dead gardens
