Opera Magna What Was Dreamt And Lived Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1: Fabio Lione]
Now time is exhausted
Silence has spread over the realm
Let the tide transform, rise and sweep me along the sea
What is it, this mystery?
What's the strength of this helpless god?
What's the real reason for me feeling this endless hurt

[Pre-Chorus: Fabio Lione]
I want to know why long ago
I put my life at your feet
No longer will verses speak of me
Together we must march on to oblivion
[Chorus: Fabio Lione]
Just take me there, the place where there is no pain
It burns again, this decrepit damage
I'm dragging this condemnation
The trap that time seems to invoke, the tragedy evoked

[Verse 2: Fabio Lione]
Let the flame extinglish
Leave the games suspended behind
Let all the wicked passion perish and be confined
Now I am your master
Your soul is forever enshrined
Though if you try to escape your poor fate will be defined

[Pre-Chorus: Fabio Lione]
I want to know what is this void
After your there is nothing
Strong is the stone that you want to break
Today you will shed tears fearing oblivion

[Chorus: Fabio Lione]
Just take me there, the place where there is no pain
It burns again, this decrepit damage
I'm dragging this condemnation
The future foretold impossible to behold
Descending from my eyes, the most somber of tears
The last and final stage of my iron will
[Interlude: Dave Guy]
There, wherever your soul sails, a cold stone will be carried Walking through silent trails with howls through the cracks you're harried
All the passions that one day fought against wind and storm
Now are incapable to break in two this old, bulky stone
It is not time that will catch you since you're honest and don't lie
Yet when the last trace is viewed, the Grim Reaper will come by
Everything will be covered, you'll be dragged down to oblivion
Memories forever shuttered what was dreamt and lived delirium!

[Bridge: Fabio Lione]
Broken was this once permanent seal
The nothingness will be witness to your humanity

[Verse 3: Fabio Lione]
Let this dream culminate
Let this moment fade away
So this withered flower can be allowed to decay
Free of this enchantment
Now in peace I contemplate
Lowering the curtain how the end has become my fate

[Pre-Chorus: Fabio Lione]
I want to know why long ago
I put my life at your feet
No longer will verses speak of me
Together we must march on to oblivion
[Final Chorus: Fabio Lione]
Just take me there, the place where there is no pain
It burns again, this decrepit damage
I'm dragging this condemnation
The trap that time seems to invoke
Cry now for me (You won't feel anymore pain)
I won't feel anymore pain
Won't burn again (Decrepit damage)
This decrepit damage
I'm dragging this condemnation
My sad hollow soul, my exhausted body
You're the witness of the end of pain loneliness
