Slaying The Dreamer
Lyricist:Tuomas Lauri Holopainen, Tero Kalle Saka Kinnunen, Jukka Antero Nevalainen, Erno Matti Juha Vuorinen
I'm a priest for the poorest sacrifice I'm but a raft in a sea of sorrow, sorrow and greed You bathed in my wine, drank from my cup, mocked my rhyme Your slit tongues licked my aching wounds
Put a stake through my heart and drag me into sunlight So awake for your greed as you're slaying the dreamer
Swan song for the wish of night God it hurts, give a name to the pain Our primrose path to hell is growing weed
Put a stake through my heart and drag me into sunlight So awake for your greed as you're slaying the dreamer
Blame me, it's me Coward, a good-for-nothing scapegoat Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Dumb kid, living a dream Romantic only on a paper
Tell me why you took all that was mine Stay as you lay, don't lead me astray
Tell me why you took all that was mine Stay as you lay, don't lead me astray
Wake up, mow the weed You'd be nothing without me Take my life if you have the heart, heart to die
You bastards tainted my soul, raped my words, played me a fool Gather your precious glitter and leave me be The great ones are all dead and I'm tired, too I truly hate you all
