lyrics

Composition of an evil coda
Playing games with my mind
Every night I hear the melody singing
Come unto me, my dark and divine
Cursed music of a dark composer
Bound in pages of gold
Taking over me
Making me believe
Madness is all I know

Story of old
Soon to be retold
Give me a sign
A message divine
I am whole!

CHORUS:
Pages of gold
A life cast in shadows of bold
The ink is dry but still i'm wondering why
I just cant let go
Voices in my mind
A veil across my eyes
And now everyday I let this requiem control my mind!

Cry a river of my blood eternal
Last abode of my soul
Can a man become a godly composer, scribing the notes from pages of gold?
The reflection of my eyes I see
But hollow now is my gaze
Can I carry on, write another song?
Now is the end of days

Pages of gold
Mind shattered and cold
Memories fade, and now im betrayed
Heart and soul!

CHORUS

Nullum magnum ingenium sine mixtura dementia fuit, ingenium
Nullum magnum ingenium sine mixtura dementia fuit, dementia

SOLOS

Pages of gold
Mind shattered and cold
Memories fade
And now im betrayed
Heart and soul!

CHORUS
