Prelude to an Epic / Flowers for Ingrid

God damn, you were the best
A dozen roses couldn't say goodbye to all the heartache
So I left them in the garden
The swollen eclipse now leaves me in the gloom of another episode
She's lost in jaded memories
Draping over the sun
Will this be our swansong?
Our last dance?
Come take my hand and we'll watch fate destroy us

God damn, you were the best
I know reality's gone mad with the blink of an eye
Where's that girl I once knew?
Her illustrations paint a picture
Now her dirty tears bleed
I've been looking for something so give it to me
Because I collect hearts and yours is mine sweet thing
Now the flowers bloom in June lay at the grave of our final eve
Fade from me with September sunsets and run away with my heart
These memories still hang over my head like a halo
But how long will this angel watch over my shoulder
How long will I hide behind this pen and how long will you wait for me?
I guess until the ink runs out...
