Time stands still I fear no more

No time to remove the door

Life it bleeds into me

River comes beyond the sea

Light falters at the fall

Water runs down the hall

Life begins to be undone

Love to come before the sun

Do you see the splatter there

It hides the color of her hair

Time recedes begin again

Until time is no more my friend

Wasting sympathy on the fool

Life is worthy of the tool

Stains become a worthy pain

Life is blood from which she’s slain

Live again before the fall

To doom it’s crawling down a wall

Pour for me the wind of life

And take again the Prince’s wife

Mortal man must never know

That time is again to grow

Bind his heart, head and mind

Bind him til the end of time

Make him wonder if this is all

Tie his feet so he will fall

Hands behind his back in pain

Til he remembers no more his brain

If we can

Make him stumble still

We shall rule

With victorious zeal

But if he shall remember his name

Nay we will fall beneath his gaze

Mortals need not know their power

For if they do we will surely scatter

Time will be no more for us

They will be victorious

Hide quickly the memory

Of his life

Take away his future wife

Let him sit in drivel stares

Before he conquer us with his glare

Oh no he sees

Our time has come

Man remembers

He is the bright son

Out we’ve been cast

Fear is no more

He has bolted our every door

Oh no the light

It shines in

We are banished once again

Darkness flees from his sight

Clouds part and angels sigh

Morning comes once again

A rainbow bridge

And castle moat

Surely he will learn to gloat

For then we can conquer him

Because of this mortal sin

Fear will hide beneath his pride

Right before his cosmic eye

He will forget all that he won

And long for more than was his sun

Her light won’t shine bright enough

And he will take her faltering cup

Beauty once was his brightest spell

Now he dooms himself to hell

If he remembered that all is his

As long as he gives his heart to love

The rainbows would burst

The birds would sing

His wife to him would bring

Enough love for every song

If he only could be that strong
