Tears Of My Immortal Soul

I walk a lonely road of silent dreams
The echoes of my footsteps shouting back at me
Why should I be surprised -- of all the things I've left behind
The faces that I've worn before still cry

No
Take me back -- take me away
Don't want to see tomorrow
So go
Leave me here just for today
Yesterday will follow
I know the time has come

Listen
Listen close -- tell me you hear
The words I've never spoken
They're here
Written in my eyes with my tears
My soul through windows broken
Somewhere, sometime, somehow

Some souls are never alive
But those that never die
Lose so much more than time

Standing at the stone that marks my earthly bed
Graves are for the living; not the dead
