Candles

by Within Temptation

Take away
These hands of darkness
Reaching for my soul
Now, the cold wind,
Blows out my candles
Feeling,
Only fear,
Without any hope

A thousand dark moons
A thousand winters long
A million fallen stars,
The candle burns in the womb

We try not to forget,
They live through us
Slowly they die away at every candle's end

A thousand dark moons
