Cobalt London Smaug - Despair lyrics

(E. Pugh) And where darkness reigns And shadows lurch I spread my wings To leave my perch And up in your skies I am within a disguise And for all not to see I am not one with me I hide behind this mask As if to fulfill a task The little boy inside Closed his eyes and cried And the pleading of his cries Is seen by no eyes Such despair I decree I no longer know me I live upon a table On which nothing can be seen But upon that very table Lies the emptiness of me Flying high above I see dark ahead But to the light I turn To face good instead of bad And the pleading of his cries Is seen by no eyes Such sorrow I decree I no longer know me Such sorrow I decree I no longer know me 1997 Scrawny Music, BMI
