A place of rest I've tried to find Aching in my heart, chaos in my mind This place is poison to my soul Can't take much more I'm losing control
Faded perfume in a room Once a sanctuary, now simply a tomb And it is in this tomb I lie Dried flowers pressed in pages Of faded romance died
And I'm haunted by ghosts of memory Taunted by promises What could have been? Haunted, by ghosts of memory Taunted by promises Please set me free
Roses blooming in hellfire Prisoner of the past And my heart's dark desire Phantom love that still holds on My dreams do not remember that you are gone
Just like the melting snow in spring It couldn't last, that's true of many things In the emerald sea I'll lie Dried flowers pressed in pages Of faded romance died
