NightWish - Slaying The Dreamer

I'm a priest for the poorest sacrifice
I'm but a raft in a sea of sorrow and greed
You bathed in my wine
Drank from my cup' mocked my rhyme
Your slit tongues licked my aching wounds
Put a stake 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 primrose path to hell is growing ****
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!

Wake up' mow the ****
You'd be nothing without me
Take my life if you have the 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!
