Slaying the Dreamer (Live) - Nightwish (夜愿)

Lyrics by：Tuomas Holopainen

Composed by：Tuomas Holopainen/Erno Vuorinen

I'm a priest for the poorest sacrifice

I'm but a raft in a sea of sorrow

Sorrow and greed

You bathed in my wine

Drank from my cup mocked my rhyme

Your slit tongues licked my aching wounds

What a strike

Through my heart

And drag me into sunlight

So awake for your greed

As you're slaying the dreamer

Swansong for the wish of night

God it hurts give a name to the pain

Our prime rose path to hell is growing w**d

What a strike

Through my heart

And drag me into sunlight

So awake for your greed

As you're slaying the dreamer

Blame me it's me

Coward a good-for-nothing scapegoat

Dumb kid living a dream

Romantic only on paper

Tell me why-you took all that was mine

Stay as you lay-don't lead me astray

Tell me why-you took all that was mine

Stay as you lay-don't lead me astray

Wake up mow the w**d

You'd be nothing without me

Take my life if you have the heart

Heart to die

You bastards tainted my tool

Raped my words played me a fool

Gather your precious glitter and leave me be

The great ones are all dead

And I'm tired too

I truly hate you all
