Event Horizon

In Memoriam

Tables were turned
on all our lives
guess it's only fair to say
it came as some surprise
somedays you roll the dice
now I realize
happy ever after
and forever compromised

Tables were turned
on all our lives
do what it takes and now i'll
leave you to decide
on the path of least regret
i can still choose who I am
over and over
in memoriam

Come to see the worlds embrace
a dream I cannot wake from
winds of fortune I recall
the road goes ever on
come to me now she said
this is your last illusion
ever and forever
the dream will soon be gone

Tables were turned
on all our lives
childhood was the fleeting glimpse
now I realize
caution to the wind she said
in memoriam
over and over
i can still choose who I am

At this point I have to say
never saw this coming
gaze into the future
i'll show you if I can
come to me now she said
and i'll take you home
over and over
in memoriam
