Lyrics Eros - Xaon

Eros

From shattered dreams and wondrous spells, a light quivers in a faint glow
A dying heart in briny tears caught in the profound undertow
What once shined bright, so radiant, a purpose dragged into the mud
I see scorched paintings of burning citadels causing death amongst angels
Dreams foregone
Turning into stone
I believed in fantasies achieved
Oh Eros
Leave me lost before the animus
Today I saw a sparrow, a beam of light in the shade
If I had wings I’d cut them off and build a cross for my grave
I’d prowl the masses screeching hoisting a banner of shame
And cut this fallacy of life thrown in chaotic waves
Dreams foregone
Turning into stone
I believed in fantasies achieved
Oh Eros
Leave me lost before the animus
Paint the world in flames
Set your soul ablaze
And finally unleash this rage
I received this tormenting deceit
Oh Eros
Leave me dead before the animus
Eros
Celestial body blazing through the sky
Eros
A memory of aeons left behind
Eros
A shattered mirror in front of my eyes
Eros
A failed attempt to let the past die
Eros
Ashy silk cascading down your dress
Eros
Deceiving eyes that couldn’t care less
Eros
A finger pressed against your lips
Eros
Words create the apocalypse
Eros
The black coach of sorrow has taken me away
Eros
Into the starless night’s archway
Eros
A dead and buried memory
Eros
How could you abandon me
