A cold dark day
I could hear the sound
I was headin' straight for heartbreak
couldn't turn around
Well I should have known
that my chosen bride
would yet turn to stone
still I held my vow to silence

Chorus

I was lost in the sea of reason
I gave in to the greed of love
I was lost in the sea of reason
I gave in to the greed of love

Haunted me,
gently bled my soul
if I'd let the heart that leads me
pave the path for me to go
I would have felt the fire
burnin' through the night
heard the virgin choir
singing - this is all but true love

Repeat chorus

Feels so empty
when it's going down
and it feels that though you're set free
there's no solid ground
Well it seems what I've been dreamin'
well has somehow turned to hell
And I'm left with just this story that I can tell
