Ambrosia Lyrics

A touch of poison seals my fate
The dawn echoes the night with my glory... the sun himself honors me

Once king of roses, now lord of gold
Blessed with the gift of gilded touch
The Gods themselves envy my hand
Fate wields its knife to cut the thread

I curse the day my dream became my descent
Suddenly, I long for you, my only love

In my perfection I have no want
A folly as fatal as sin
Yet eyes still glint with greed untold
Has now become the end of me

I curse the day my dream became my descent
Suddenly, I long for you, my only love

Have I not earned this, the gift of beauty within?
How selfish were the Gods to keep their riches from my rightful treasure?
I truly have become one of them... my fatal flaw

Oh yeah! I've got her hook, line, and sinker!
Thanks to me, she's her own new necklace
Now she's good as gold
Thanks to me, she's her own new necklace
Now she's good as gold

I curse the day my dream became my descent
Suddenly, I long for you, my only love
I curse the day my dream became my descent
Suddenly, I long for you, my only love...
Cut the thread

She haunts me in dreams
I see her silhouette dance across landscapes
Of golden light and autumn
In my dreams...

Her soft eyes see (The thing I'd give...)
Through my tortured soul (...to prove myself to her...)
Vanishing (...to make her see)
Any hope for fantasy

Jaded eyes awake as her selfish words rain from such placid lips
Still I kiss her silken flesh

Frigid air leaves me breathless
Frigid air leaves me breathless
Foolish agony fills my lungs as I try to scream for her
I confess... I scare myself
Through the howling wind, on my knees, I cry
Listen to me...

I'm broken by her silence to a love unseen
Blood soaked feathers rained down
My wingless angel so broken falls gracefully from the sky
To waiting arms...
To waiting arms...

Frigid air leaves me breathless
Frigid air leaves me breathless
Foolish agony fills my lungs as I try to scream for her
I confess... I scare myself

Frigid air leaves me breathless
Frigid air leaves me breathless
Foolish agony fills my lungs as I try to scream for her
I confess... I scare myself
Through the howling wind, on my knees, I cry
Listen to me...

Such foolish agony fills my lungs as I try to scream for her
Jaded eyes wake to the sounds of my voice as I scream to her
In dreams I've seen her silhouette dance across golden light
And autumn...In my dreams...

In my dreams skies so burdened let her go
As cold rain falls, so does she
My desires whither, broken once more
Soft hands take one so fair she haunts me
