Something fills the air, it's all around us As striking as a bolt out of the blue The impact's nearly rendered us unconscious Laid a mist upon the crew The radiance warms my soul and makes me dizzy A hazy veil now disguises the abyss Its golden sheen is pregnant with such promise Why it fills my head with Blissful numbness Going... Gone. I can never go back, I can never go back there I can never go back, I can never go back Oblivion upon your lips – Lethe flows in your kiss I could never go back, I could never go back there... Laudanum, make me numb! I could never go back, I could never go back there I could never go back, I could never go back...
