A Thin Veil Upon the Lake Songtext
von Goatron

After my nightmares
I seeked salvation from the porch
That′s when I saw the light
Brighter than the brightest torch
I wished the dream would never end
So beautiful was what I beheld
A girl and a horse both in white
Flying like ghosts through the night
In the dead of that night
From a far away land
You came to me at night
And held my weary hand
Together we watched the impending dawn
As your silent lips uttered the lore
Grief hidden behind a veil
Of the horrors bestowed upon your tale
Suddenly the dream became too real
As she reveals her story to me
Why did you come here sweetest child
I've no strength in body and mind


She fills my head with visions
An empty house full of life
Among the inhabiting spirits
I see a glimpse of past crimes
In the dead of that night
From a far away land
You came to me at night
And held my weary hand
Together we watched the impending dawn
As your silent lips uttered the lore
Your grief hidden behind a veil
Of the horrors bestowed upon your tale
I can deliver a message
Far beyond to another place
Help me find my father, she whispers
Then she′s gone
She's gone without a trace
In the dead of that night
From a far away land
You came to me at night
And held my weary hand
Together we watched the impending dawn
As your silent lips uttered the lore
Your grief hidden behind a veil
Of the horrors bestowed upon your tale
