Guardian (Live)

These walls are stained engraved with pain
You will find them under shadows casting shame
Some it's all they've ever known, Angels of
the fortunate sons come and go ... You may not
Entities pass in the night Guardians and the
Reaper fight the will to live shall win
Mares of hope ride through their dreams
blinding light awakens sleeping dawn it seems
It was all a dream an endless dream

I will wish upon a star I believe in you
And if my will has strayed afar I remembered you
Will you remember me
I the one you sentenced penance unabsolved
Answer me save my will have you forgotten me

Pace the hallway blind man for a million miles of stars
His mind has seen. Think you may he lives in darkness
We're the dark he's seen the light of dream
Karen's been asleep forever I know she hears me
She has so much to say, the machine sparks
Her eggshell mind a tear streams from her face
Into my hand, to my heart

I will wish upon a star I believe in you
And if my will has strayed afar I remembered you
Will you remember me
I the one you sentenced penance unabsolved
Answer me save my will

I'm a fire without a flame helpless child without a name
With broken wings catch me I'm falling
I'm a question with no answer who are
you that takes my life away from me
unveil the boundaries of the black

I had a dream I was you strong as the fire
In my veins and when I called out your
Name I would remain to witness the pain
I am beyond silent black I will be back
As your guardian

Angels in white you have sacrificed you witness
and bury the pain
You walk hand and hand with the fear stricken child
Strengthen the weak and the lame
Have you seen beyond the unborn the
pillars of penance and lore
Perpetual journey into the realm the
sovereign servitor

I will wish upon a star I believe in you
And if my will has strayed afar I remembered you
Will you remember me
I the one you sentenced penance unabsolved
Answer me save my will
Have you forgotten me
Answer me save my will
Have you forgotten me
Answer me save my will
Have you forgotten me
