Symphony X Lyrics
"Candlelight Fantasia"

Just one more night, one more score
Another question in my mind, can't take no more
Kissing the tears from my face
As they fall to the ground in the silence

In twilight and faded times, spirits cold, with no love
Bells ring the lonely chime
Candle fire
These lit dreams can't burn alone

Winds of change
Bring songs upon my memory
An empty heart and soul intoxicates me
This darkened page orchestrates my final destiny
Not knowing what
What tomorrow will bring

From within the mirror's eyes
I'm forced to run away and hide
I feel those mystic eyes subside and leave me blind
Through passages in time, a prisoner locked behind the door
Lonely roses slowly wither and die

I can't escape this captive misery
Heart stone cold, under supremacy
Thrown into a raging sea of tyranny
Life's vile walls have tangled me in webs
Eternally within my futures threads, play
The violent strings of my symphony

Transcend
The absence of this fantasy
Just another vision washed away with the tide
No place for forgotten ones
I cannot deny
What lies beyond
Beyond this fantasy

From within the mirror's eyes
I'm forced to run away and hide
I feel those mystic eyes subside and leave me blind
Through passages in time a prisoner locked behind the door
Lonely roses slowly wither and die

From within the mirror's eyes
I'm forced to run away and hide
I feel those mystic eyes subside and leave me blind
Through passages in time a prisoner locked behind the door
Lonely roses slowly wither and die
