A Poem for Byzantium Songtext
von Delerium feat. Joanna Stevens

Unforbidden shadows of you formed yesterday
I ran away to a room here on the bay
Interrupted life again, another new beginning
Where the silence echoes, you′re no longer with me

Here and now, I feel that I'm embracing freedom
Even though I may be alone but that′s okay

Through the darkness, I would walk in the streets
Confessions never seemed to provide me with a release
Held me down and tried to cure me tried to give me reason
But nothing could separate this burdened mind from me


Here and now, I feel that I'm embracing freedom
Even though I may be alone but that's okay
And lookin′ out to a different sky will disengage me
Absence is never the answer, I know but it serves as my shade

I do not seek and do not intend to find
A calmer ocean or a sun that will never rise
My world will never change and time will bring you to my thoughts and
I′ll move on and then forget you all over again
Movin' on, I can forgive you all over again

Here and now, I feel that I′m embracing freedom
Even though I may be alone but that's okay
And lookin′ out to a different sky it seem so easy
Absence is never the answer, I know but it serves as my shade
