Cruxshadows - Dragonfly lyrics

""Don't ask me to surrender"

Her voice fell tired and spent

"My hopes and dreams, a silent heart

I carry here within"

her outstretched wings, left tattered

A sail aged with rust

"a breath in time, that's yours and mine...

it belongs to only us."

And I will write her name and cast it to the sky

silhouettes recede into a mother's tearful eyes

a host of angels clamor to her side

a light dissolves to kiss the wind,

release the dragonfly.

See the rose within the field of white

She's searching for the grail

but the rain descends to snatch the light

from distant dying suns

a faint resounding in the night

calls angels wings to beat

singing silent lip-sewn songs

but the distance is too deep...

And I will write her name and cast it to the sky

silhouettes receded into a mother's tearful eyes

a host of angels clamor to her side

a night dissolved to kiss the wind

release the dragonfly

And I will write her name and cast it to the sky

as precious moments will slip away in time

angels fall from grace, and sometimes heroes die

but tonight, my love, ascend the gates,

release the dragonfly

sometimes angels fall, but love will never die

"tonight my soul is something more" -

calls the dragonfly."
