In Strict Confidence – The Final Embrace lyrics

My dreams fall to the floor
Scattering like rose petals

Disconcerted I watch the merciless tears settle
Upon the unfulfilled dreams like shimmering dewdrops
The diamond misery sparkles up at me
As though suggestion that I surrender myself completely

My eyes widen in disbelief and involuntarily I shake my head
Fear slashes at me with vicious claws
And I shudder in spite of myself

The sullen darkness slithers closer
Striking at me with ravenous fangs
I feel hope elude me as the last if the light recedes
And I sink to the floor
Landing among the somber remains of once beautiful wishes

As I feel myself slipping away
Realize that this is my end
And remorse rains down on me
Mingling with the sorrow that fills my heart

All is lost forever as the dead blackness enshrouds me with the final embrace
