Ainulindale

There was a time when it was just you and me
A time when we didn't allow anybody else to see
The secrets we had were unique and so sweet
Our two little hearts together rejoiced in beat

With a swift wind our dreams have collapsed
It was hard to believe that our time had passed
Now all that's left is pain entwined with fear
Not a day goes by without us shedding a tear

Bridge
No greater pain is felt
But the one when I wake at dawn
Realizing you're not here
Realizing that now you’re gone

Chorus1
Below this shattered shell of mine
The strength I am not worthy of
And though it serves no purpose now
It keeps me warm my burning love

Remember the times when the world was ours
When we used to stare at the night sky for hours
Searching for a place that we could call home
In the silence of space our open minds would roam

Now I roam alone in the dark throughout this life
Inside me love and death lead an endless strife
And as every single day slowly passes me by
The more I realize that never again will I fly

Bridge
Chorus1
Below this shattered shell of mine
The strength I am not worthy of
Sweeter than the sweetest wine
It keeps me warm my burning love


As my life slowly in vain slips by
I know that now it’s time to die
I’d say goodbye if I didn’t feel fear
That there’ll be no one there to hear
