| Trailing Raven '03 { Angel pohtii epäelämäänsä ja sen merkitystä menetettyään Buffyn. Sijoittuu Losiin, Angel-sarjan alkuvaiheille. } Sometimes it feels Like all the clocks in the world Are ticking with the speed of the light I sit here in this empty room These walls are more talkative than me And I trail The curtains are drawn over my heart I’m done Finished Complete She was the reason, she was the one Now what is there left? Except the defeat Once again we have to realize Once again we’re forced to see You and I are not like everyone You and I have a destiny Well, the hell with all the destinies If they mean giving up her If I close my eyes, I remember again That look in her eyes, in the sewer Here I sit again This chair, these polished floors Everything too cool and clean Too many closed doors One door I have locked behind The one that should’ve stayed open One dream I have left behind That one dream is now broken She was the reason, my only reason Now what is there left but to trail? To help the helpless? To save the day? To rescue the ones who are frail? No thanks, I am done, I’ve retired The world can find somebody new This champion’s mission will pass on to another Me and the Powers are through! I’ve loved only once, been born more than twice Saved souls more than anyone knows But my own soul is far beyond saving for me And my love is the one the Powers chose The irony of my existence The paradox of my whole being Will surely seem funny to demons and fiends But somehow Not funny to me I sit here alone in this building I sit though the sun is up high No reason to matter, no reason to feel I listen to walls while they sigh And I trail Like a paperplane in the air Cause the life lost it’s meaning When I could see The day I understood the word: 'Destiny'. |
