I Dream

作曲 : Marko Hietala/Vili Ollila/Tuomas Wäinölä

作词 : Marko Hietala

I am a wraith

I'm a slayer

And I have no one left to slay

I am at the end of the road

A road that led me astray

Your life should not be wasted

If you're not ready to die yet

Until the soil falls upon you

You shouldn't meet your death

The ghosts and wounds become one

Longing to be whole

In the slow fade to black of a lost soul

If I had one I would gladly

Cut my heart out

But I can only dream on

The tide that swelled in my veins

Has gone dry with sand and rust

The salt and the heat of skin

Replaced by the kiss of dust

Below the rock it grows colder

And colder still is the night sky

My hopes go up

Against the black space

Defiant little moths

They die

The wounds and ghosts

Become one in scars numb and old

There's no fiery deep nor gates of gold

I am the one

Whose teeth I'd like to kick out

But I can only dream on

My bones drying up

Lying numb to pain

They'll try to move in vain

No feasts or songs for a mouth

That's rotting away

Why do I see

The moon shining right through me

The cold white moon

The bone white moon

I just wait for

All these memories to fade out

So I wouldn't be dreaming on
