One Last Dream

The first time I have failed Hold my hand as you fade I see your skin so pale You aren't the man I knew Cold, your gaze turns so blue You see me standing here Have you forgotten too? I’m more than you'll be you Another one of your little tests A maze to drown in, a life of rest He carries the heads of Cerberus Throw yourself a bone, my son What's a challenge if not Too close to the sun? A hole in my house where the rain comes A hole in my head where the bullet left A brother I loved and I killed Hold my hand as you fade I see your skin so pale You aren’t the man I knew Cold, your gaze turns so blue You see me standing here This beast beneath my floorboards The graves hidden in my walls Seeing bodies turned to dreams Selling heaven in perfect boxes You fear blood more and more Blood and time, more and more
