The Magic I Once Had lyrics

Every ounce of will,

fallen soldiers on the battlefield,

the smoking grounds, so quiet now

And part of me is glad to have seen the end,

I must admit the suspense was killing me;

Its death brings peace

And strings tied round my wrist have found the breeze

now kissing the carnage,

as the world moves in to forage…

Beyond the distance, my eyes persist in

seeing visions of futures, like cities of people;

And I sigh deeply, made love to so sweetly

by every promise it sings me, like memories,

of the magic I once had.

Desire too fueled by haste;

glossy recollections of my past greatness

only proved to cripple me.

Defeat itself is draining of energy,

and yet the emptiness it has left is freeing,

oh, it brings me peace

And careless strands of my hair dance with breezes

kissing the carnage,

as the world moves in to forage…

Beyond the distance, my eyes persist in

seeing visions of futures, like cities of people;

And I sigh deeply, made love to so sweetly

by every promise it sings me, that lures me from

beyond the distance, my eyes play tricks on me:

visions of futures, like cities of people,

And I sigh deeply, made love to so sweetly

by every promise it sings me, like memories,

of the magic I once had,

of the magic I once had.
