The Tea Party Lyrics
"The Halycon Days"

Alone, left here in dust
Amidst my fears and doubts
Life's shattered dreams
I could have done without

Now chthonic life has set its sights on
Making me a slave to its ways
I wait for return
'Til then my soul it burns
And it burns only for you...

I'll be with you soon

Night it falls on me endlessly
(and) I search for you in this blindness
I'm a prodigy of lust and loss
'Til sleep comes down

I can't explain, but disdain remains
Some treason I can't reason
They left me here for dead my dear
Barely breathing, but I'm still breathing

Now I see a light
It's shining from above
I think they've finally come
The halcyon days

I'm crawling now
Up towards the sound
Vengeance moves so swiftly
I've conquered fear
I've shed my tears
Now I'm seething, I'm still breathing
And I'll be with you soon

Now I see a light
Shining from above
I think they've finally come
The halcyon days
