If The Story Is Over

verse 1 Once upon a time I was the scribe of all my dreams I’ve seen the years turn into dust, now feel the rust in me I’ve walked the shores of Avalon, I’ve seen the seasons change I’ve laughed and cried, I’ve lived and died, but only on the page Bridge Now all I have, all I am All I ever was is here, on the page It’s all the same, it never mattered anyway It’s all a lie so let it burn All empty words and all rhymes will fade As the light of last candle flickers away If the story is over, this chapter my last Let it be my best one, let it be my own verse 2 I hope It’s not too late to learn to live and learn to love I yearn to fight, to turn the tide before the tender dark For I never drew the sword from stone, there’s no Helen in my Troy I stand alone, I stand forgotten, just gazing into the void Bridge Come night, test my will, test my soul Test my faith and test my heart, torn apart Make me strong, make me whole again and Guide through the dark ‘til the morning come All empty words and all rhymes will fade As the light of last candle flickers away If the story is over, this chapter my last Let it be my best one, let it be my own
