Our awakening emotions Always dormant and unused What is present in the sunlight Reality is refused Silent vivid feelings Try hard and they won't appear Let your new soul be reborn All our sadness disappear Lilacs in the attic They're fragile to the skin No time left to notice Their beauty held within Lilacs in the attic So peaceful and serene Fading into the darkness Their beauty left unseen Can you see the magical colors Their canvas in the sky How impatient is the moon? Rises up so high The world is on fire So aggressivly it will rise Why is hatred taught? And why must we learn to despise? The lilacs in the attic So fragile to the skin No time left to notice Their beauty held within Lilacs in the attic So peaceful and serene Fading into the darkness Their beauty left unseen Who will show us love? We've seen how not to accept And our beauty is already lost And our visions won't be kept The lilacs in the attic So fragile to the skin No time left to notice All the beauty held within Lilacs in the attic So peaceful and serene Fading into the darkness All their beauty left unseen Beauty left unseen Beauty left unseen
