Five come to claim him for the sacrifice He cannot see them but he knows they're there And he knows they will find him

Five come to claim you for the sacrifice You cannot see them but you know they're here You try to run but it won't help And you know they will find you [chorus:] We were together in my finest dreams Now I can't see you you're no longer here They took you from me down to hell But I will come and find you You did not come back to me You never come back to me I once saw you standing there I could not stop dreaming of us Our separation is too much to bear When I cannot feel you will you still be there Bury my face in your belated hair I tried to run to catch you up But you did not want me [chorus]

Flow, my tears, fall from your springs Exiled, for ever, let me mourn Where nights black bird her sad infamy sings There let me live, forlorn [chorus:] Hark, you shadows, that in darkness dwell Learn to contemn light Happy, happy, they that in hell Feel not the world's despite Down, vain lights, shine you no more No nights are dark enough for those That in despair their lost fortunes deplore Light doth but shame disclose [chorus] Never may my woes be relieved Since pity is fled And tears, and sighs, and groans My weary days (my weary days) Of all joys have deprived [chorus] From the highest spire of contentment My fortune is thrown And fear, and grief, and pain For my deserts (for my deserts) Are my hopes, since hope is gone [chorus]

One, who used to be yours He cannot keep us two apart But the second one is here She moves around me now as you're not near Third, his choleric mind Keeps him still from seeing how he could be The five are around be as they take me down Fourth is the one, who seeks to control you He cannot keep himself away You can never come back So I must come down to you I still have not stopped dreaming of us Fifth, her eyes hold the dark She thinks she controls me but I'm not sure And her aura encloses me She drags me down to hell and you're in there And, at her mute command I find that I am now surrounded The five come to take me for the sacrifice

[chorus:] The trees lose their leaves Autumn is the saddest time I cannot see you Somniferously I drift through the cold dark air I cannot see you I walk towards you Trying still to hide from you Forgetting to speak And struggling to breathe I turn back away from you And you watch me go [chorus] He comes closer now The light goes so far away I am so alone Madness is closing The voices keep on talking Michael is burning Burning jealousy The rope surrounds his whole neck Now I can see you Madness is fading You pull back my sanity I am whole again [chorus] My cardinal sin Left a room that you were in I cannot keep you One of them's not you But I really did not think You can't forgive me I come back to you The light fades through an old hole Our symphony plays Come back to me now As our time is ending We need each other [chorus x2] I see your life leave It fades into the darkness This place is quiet now [chorus] Darkness draws nearer I lay down beside your grave Our souls are quiet now

You don't seem to move Are you in there my love? I am down here with you But we can never get back Please, dear, do please wake up I need you by my side People come looking for us in our home They'll never find us 'cause we're down here now I failed to keep you safe from their torture (They kept us apart too long) How could they treat you that way? (But now we're together) I came down to be with you And I'll keep you safe my love We were together in my finest dreams Then I was alone and you were not there They took you from me down to hell So I have come to find you Five came to claim us for the sacrifice
