The Chronicles of Israfel
"Laudanum"
Gabriel:
A seed was planted early deep inside a shell
So unearthly and divine
And all your weaknesses false and so imagined
Drink this new revealing truth
Visions collide with all you know (you know, you know, you know)
Burn their undeserving wings
Deeper than a dark sky
Lost within a lark's cry for you
(Unearthly and so divine)
Your vision has receded
And left you seeing so much clearer
The smile you dreamt of as a child
Now returns to summon her star born
But when she left your side
A whimper went unheard
The virtues will lead the way to Vega and a new beginning
Raise a glass and erase time
A lapse in ego has brought great new meaning to
A world that never loved you
A world that never loved you
And all your weaknesses false and so imagined
Burn their undeserving wings
My blue-blood king
Deeper than a dark sky
Lost within a lark's cry for you
(Unearthly and so divine)
Your vision has receded
And left you seeing so much clearer
The smile you dreamt of as a child
Now returns to summon her star born
But when she left your side
A whimper went unheard
You've been led to Vega
The magistrate of the truth
Whose gold vision will save us
Not entertain us
Like the lies from all the queens and the demigods
Kings and the demigods
It's not right to know you're being cheated
All your weaknesses false and so imagined
Burn their undeserving wings
My blue-blood king
Deeper than a dark sky
Lost within a lark's cry for you
(Unearthly and so divine)
Your vision has receded
And left you seeing so much clearer
The smile you dreamt of as a child
Now returns to summon her star born
But when she left your side
A whimper went unheard
