lyrics

the burden ends
with the whiteness of bone
my blood runs cold, early morning
standing by the throne, always in rapture
always looking for the piece to make you whole again

tears to the wind
now I'm diving deeper, than I ever have been
I've got to stop dreaming, I have to be strong now
my heart beats so hollow
Aurelian walls

did your dreams end
beneath rubble and stone
my head hangs low, early morning
frozen in the snow, just west of Moscow
stopped, before we had a chance to bleed again

tears to the wind
now I'm falling deeper, than I ever have been
I've got to stop dreaming, I have to be strong now
my heart beats so hollow
Aurelian walls

black dogs, at the walls
screaming for the old regime
catacombs beneath old Rome
look at what they've done to me

and here we stand, is this all that I've known
my heart grows cold, early morning
the silence in your bones, invites disaster
weeping walls and long dead souls keep calling me

tears to the wind
here I fall to pieces, tell me
when will it end
I've got to stop dreaming, I have to be strong now
my heart has been buried
Aurelian walls
