Retrospective Songtext
von Empire in Dust

And as you leave the alliance
And as you leave me here
I can′t break all defences
And borders you closed for me
And as you break the alliance
And as you disappear
I can't defeat all those senses
And all you meant to me
And as you leave the alliance
And as you leave me here
I can′t break all defences
And borders you closed for me
Borders you closed for me


It all began
On one of those summer nights
We couldn't sleep
We held each other so tight
And time goes by
How good you were for me
But still I was
Afraid of not being free
For many things
I apologize
Sometimes I wish
I've rethought my deeds twice
My mind was blurred
And thoughts unclear

But at least
It was you who left me here
You left me here
Get out of my head

It was insane
Never meant to be
I feel ashamed
Please forgive me
I changed my view
Of what we were
Of what we were


So many miles
We overcame with ease
But it was hard
To find a way to me
You loved the stars
Also, the end of weeks
So many times that
I was blind to your needs
Cute little birds
Always made you smile
We often stopped
And watched them for a while
I blame my heart
You were so near
But at last I couldn′t hold you here
So near

It was insane
Never meant to be
I feel ashamed
Please forgive me
I changed my view
Of what we were
Of what we were
It was insane
Never meant to be
I feel ashamed
I never feel free
That makes no sense
No need to tell that fact to me

It was insane
Never meant to be
I feel ashamed
Please forgive me
I changed my view
Of what we were
Of what we were
It was insane
Never meant to be
I feel ashamed
I never feel free
That makes no sense
No need to tell that fact to me

It was insane
Never meant to be
I feel ashamed
I never feel free
I know this makes no sense
It was insane
Never meant to be
I feel ashamed
Please, can you forgive me?
I changed my view
Of what we were
