Courageous — текст песни (Dreadful Shadows)

Your wrinkled hands reveal the time
You can`t stop anymore
The expression of you eyes is still courageous
Your lips are pale, your skin is white
I thought you`d never fall
You`re lying motionless in bed

Courageous inside
Flies dance around the same old lie
I`m giving up your shape

Oh, I was startled by the words
You breathed in your despair
You`ve lost your trust in your own world - in living
In times when you were young and strong
You could embrace the world
You`ve been so fearless and so sure

Courageous inside
Flies dance around the same old lie
I`m giving up your shape

"But our dreaming was too far beyond reality
Another time we had to see - we are creeping worms in space
Too many disappointments made me disintegrate
I`m losing hold, losing control - and my world collapsed"

It seemed that life came back to you
Your eyes were blazing bright
Immortal power seized your body
I left you when you fell asleep
You wanted to be alone
And now I`m sitting next to you

You`re still courageous inside
Flies dance around the same old lie
I`m giving up your shape

"Sometimes I`m burning in a fire of lies and agony
These waves will never subside and my world will disappear
I don`t believe in human souls, I had to bury warmth
In endless fights against myself my world collapsed"
