I've dreamed so many fruitless dreams

For love is never what it seems

It brings only sorrow with its many stings

I can only wait for death my summons to bring

Within my heart no more love can abide

For there is no one to keep near my side

I bleed from every pore from the despair that i feel

But I know of no pain that death will not heal



Truth bursts forth with radiant light

Showing me the path of right

For now the day has past and gone

And only night is coming on

No more the sun with golden beam

The earth is ruled by the moon with softer gleam

A million stars fill up the sky

All the earth is a cool dark place to die"
