In this city of raw emotion
What's this message you bring to me
In my world of blind devotion
You were there
But I could never see

Damien
Is your heart harder
What inside your head
Damien
Does the night go farther
When all your years are bled

In my world I have watched and wondered
Safely here from behind these walls
And your tears could they mean nothing
If from this disgrace
No one sees them fall

Damien
Is your heart harder
What inside your head
Damien
Is the dark your father
When all your years are bled

Sometimes late at night
When I'm there in bed
I lie there wondering
Where do you lay your head
And do you say your prayers any more?
Do you say your prayers?

Damien
Is your heart harder
Do you still feel pain
Damien
Does the night go farther
When you're sleeping in the rain

In the dark I have heard a calling
Broken wings that beg to fly
Is there time or is it too late
Is the cut flower no longer alive

Damien
Is your heart harder
What inside your head
Damien
Does the night go farther
When all your years are bled


Meadowland spread beneath her feet, even as song's last words left her lips, a song for one longing to remain awake in a world that beckoned her to sleep. It felt wrong. She felt wrong. Something stifled, lost beyond a recognizable pattern. Vaguely she thought she seen glint of silver...or perhaps it had been white... Tyrsis sunk to her knees, warm fragrance of flower bed rising about her in its tropicality of scents, each wildflower containing its own simple rhythm of life... How simple was this life? To close one's eyes and simply drift away, or to see beyond it all and guess what tomorrow might hold... only to make it into reality by choosing. A flicker, something dim and starlit invading the senses as images washed over her, across her, lover's caress upon the mind... She wanted to shiver, but only tumbled towards the earth, hair laying in fan-fold blanket across wildflowers, a startling dark amidst white, yellow and red.

Her dreams were becoming more frequent now, only two days flight from her last point of awakening. She hardly dared sleep now...to sleep was to dream...and to dream was to... It took her.
