Prelude To an Epic / Flowers For Ingrid Lyrics

God damn, you were the best
God damn, you were the best
God damn, you were the best
God damn, you were the bestA dozen roses couldn't say goodbye
To all the heartache so I left them in the gardenThe swollen eclipse now leaves me
In the gloom of another episodeShe's lost in jaded memories
Draping over the sunWill this be our swan song
Our last dance?Come take my hand
And we'll watch fate destroy usGod damn, you were the best
God damn, you were the best
God damn, you were the best
God damn, you were the bestI know reality's gone mad with the blink of an eye
I know reality's gone mad with the blink of an eye
With the blink of an eye, with the blink of anWhere's that girl I once knew?
Where's that girl? NoHer illustrations paint a picture, now her dirty tears bleed
Her illustrations paint a picture, now her dirty tears bleed
Her illustrations paint a picture, now her dirty tears bleed
Her illustrations paint a picture, now her dirty tears bleedI've been looking for something so give it to me

Because I collect hearts and you're a special thingNow the flowers bloom in June lay at the grave of our final eve
Fade from me with September sunsets and run away with my heart
These memories still hang over my head like a halo
But not will this angel watch over my shoulderHow long will I hide behind this pen and how long will you wait for me
I guess until the ink runs out, I guess until the ink runs out
