3. When

Музыка: Микаэль Окерфельдт, Петер Линдгрен
Стихи: Микаэль Окерфельдт

Red sun rising
Somewhere through the dense fog
The portrait of the jaded dawn
Who had seen it all before

This day wept on my shoulders
Still the same as yesterday
This path seems endless, body is numb
The soul has lost its flame

Walking in familiar traces
To find my way back home

Соло [2:11-2:42]: Петер Линдгрен

So there I was
Within the sobriety of the immortals
A semblance of supernatural winds passing through
The garden sighs, flowers die

The gate was closed that day
But I was bound to carry on
She could not see me through the windows
In dismay, strangest twist upon her lips

Graven face, she said my name

Once inside
I heard whispers in the parlour
The gilded faces grin
Aware of my final demise... demise... demise... demise

And I cried, I knew she had lied
Her obsession had died, it had died

When can I take you from this place?
When is the word but a sigh?
When there is death our lone beholder?
When do we walk the final steps?
When can we scream instead of whisper?
When is the new beginning?
And the end of this sad MADRIGAL
