I will write a tale that is only mine

On the page the words entwine

My creation of beauty and of passion 



Mortal heart now writing immortal love

Everything I'm dreaming of

I will fashion a goddess, my obsession 



Stains on these pages

Constellation of tears

Like stars with scars 



Dark design of my twisted mind

You're the final blight of a failed playwright

Figment of my madness

Verse of woe and sadness 



Wild and free, you're the raging sea

And one day you will be the end of me

Your star will be brightest

In my constellation of tears 



You'll shine so bright tonight



Broke my quill, I can't bend her to my will

And the love grows stronger still

While the rhymes they betray and the words they fail me 



Erato, why do you hate me so?

Have some heart or let me go

I am old and I'm tired, uninspired 



Stains on these pages

Constellation of tears

Like stars with scars



Dark design of my twisted mind

You're the final blight of a failed playwright

Figment of my madness

Verse of woe and sadness 



Wild and free, you're the raging sea

And one day you will be the end of me

Your star will be brightest

In my constellation of tears 



You'll shine so bright tonight



A flame that burns twice as bright

Burns half as long

Mine faded long ago



My queen will never claim her throne

I'll always be alone, my tale be left untold



Stains on these pages

Constellation of tears

Like stars with scars



Dark design of my twisted mind

You're the final blight of a failed playwright

Figment of my madness

Verse of woe and sadness 



Wild and free, you're the raging sea

And one day you will be the end of me

Your star will be brightest

In my constellation



Dark design of my twisted mind

You're the final blight of a failed playwright

Figment of my madness

Verse of woe and sadness 



Wild and free, you're the raging sea

And one day you will be the end of me

Your star will be brightest

In my constellation of tears 



You'll shine so bright tonight
