The Lament of the Innocent...

If this were a dream, would you wake me up?

Or would you let me stay in slumber, for aeons?

Would you let this heart of mine harden?

As hard as the tomb in which my body rests?

If you gave me wings, would you let me fly?

Or would you encapsulate me in a crystal cage?

Would you let this feeling soar?

And then let it fall upon you and die?

If you love me, wake me up...

If you love me, set me free...

If you love me, shut me away in my tomb...

If you love me, catch me when I fall...

I did not wish for anything in return,

So set me free and let me return to where I belong...
