 Nightwish - Dead to the world  2005.01.16. 11:58  All the same take me awayWe’re dead to the world
 
 The child gave thought to the poet’s world
 Gave comfort to the Fallen
 (Heartfelt, lovelorn)
 
 Remaining, yet still uninvited
 Those words scented my soul
 (Lonely soul, Ocean soul)
 
 It’s not the monsters under your bed
 It is the Man next door
 That makes you fear, makes you cry,
 Makes you cry for the child
 All the wars are fought among those lonely men
 Unarmed, unscarred
 
 I don’t want to die a scarless man
 A lonely soul
 (Tell me now what to do)
 
 I studied silence to learn the music
 I joined the sinful to regain innocence
 
 Heaven queen, cover me
 In all that blue
 Little boy, such precious joy
 Is dead to the world
 
 Heaven queen, carry me
 Away from all pain
 All the same take me away
 We’re dead to the world
 
 Dead, silent, constant
 Yet always changing
 My favorite view of this world
 
 As he died, he will return to die in me again
 Weaving the cloth, giving birth to the Century Child
 Who gave his life not for the world but for me
 Innocence reborn once more.
