Beethoven's Nightmare

Twilight, candlelit walls

A strong crescendo

Highlights the lonely calls

From my piano

Melody, come to me

Sing your silent voice

Remedy my envy

Bring me one last choice

Why, why can't you bring me to find

To hear your sound

No wayfarer is blind

See my hands

Conducting a Nightmare

The symphony of a tragedy

So great it devours me

These notes are just fantasy

Perpetual dream

Won't let go of me

I struggle to live

Without the notion of a sound

That could open my mind

Moonlight, make me conceive

A slow sonata

Midnight, the dead will grieve

To this dark cantata

The detestable dance to my score

They hear my cries

Your guidance I implore

See my hands

Constructing a nightmare

The symphony of a universe

So vast it devours me

These nights are just fantasy

Celestial beam,

Help me to see

I struggle to live

Without the notion of a sound

That could open my mind

Into an unending sorrow

A festival of horror

An orchestra of the undead

So bright my destiny was

Golden future

Inside shadows amass

Nocturnal rapture

Melody, come to me

Sing your silent voice

Remedy my envy

Bring me one last choice

Why can't you bring me to find

To hear your sound

No wayfarer is blind

See my hands

Conducting a nightmare

The beauty of a melody

Is all that inspires me

To write my last symphony

Perpetual dream

Never lets go of me

I struggle to live

Without the notion of a sound

That could've opened my mind
