ANATHEMA – The Silent Enigma Lyrics

In dreamland grandeur
I held mesmerized peace
Innocence breathed again

A mind’s escape
Leave walls of tears behind
Ethereal vision haunting still…
The solitude left me blind

Beneath an open sky
Sibilant cries of youth dying
Enslave me with grief

A moonlit era, oblivion’s twilight kiss
Wishes in lament
Happiness in a broken vision

Utopia still unborn…

Tormented echoes of a fallen Eden
I longed for her beauty
Yet from dust, she returned
The dream, an enigma… silent
