Symmetry - Lyrics by Savatage


Lyrics
So would you tell me now
Are life and death a symmetry
Balanced on scales
Neither side chosen
And could these moments
Balance out against eternity
Promise inferred
Words never spoken
My life is burning
Could you read by the light
Letters I¹ve written
Never to follow
Poets and madmen
All defy reason
Still in my mind I know
I want to live my life with you
Dying hard
Play my whole hand until it
¹s through
Dying hard
And in your arctic night
You contemplate eternity
Walking on water
Frozen in silence
And in that moment would you
Turn around and turn to me
Laughing away night
¹s darker tyrants
My life is burning
Could you read by the light
Letters I¹ve written
Never to follow
Poets and madmen
All defy reason
Still in my mind I know
I want to live my life with you
Dying hard
Play in my whole hand until it
¹s through
Dying hard
Some nights I spend alone inside my head
But it
¹s better than losing it
And if you want to turn your life around
It
¹s your life you
¹re choosing it
I want to spend my life with you
Dying hard
Play the whole hand until it
¹s through
Dying hard
