Stolen Memories

Last night when i fell asleep,
he came again to me;
that cold-staring beast that enslaves
with his aching melody

His thousand harpys held me still
so i would hear the whole
and once again be bewitched
and held by his control

and now the numb consumes me
only broken by the pain
and he laughs as i scream
and reach for light in vain

This time love cannot save me
for Love left me without wings
now i'm taunted by my silent wish
in the song the cold beast sings
