Trans-siberian Orchestra - Ill Keep Your Secrets - Текст песни

[THERESA]


LOST IN YOUR DARK

I SEE YOU THERE

WHAT DO YOU SEE BEYOND YOUR STARE

AND YOU BELIEVE THAT NO ONE ELSE CAN KNOW


WHAT IS THIS THING YOU KEEP INSIDE

OUT OF THE LIGHT AND WRAPPED IN PRIDE

ALWAYS AFRAID THAT ONE DAY IT WILL SHOW


I'LL KEEP YOUR SECRETS

I'LL HOLD YOUR GROUND

AND WHEN THE DARKNESS STARTS TO FALL

I'LL BE AROUND THERE WAITING

WHEN DREAMS ARE FADING

AND FRIENDS ARE DISTANT AND FEW


KNOW AT THAT MOMENT I'LL BE THERE WITH YOU

WHAT ARE THESE VOICES THAT YOU HEAR

ARE THEY TOO FAR OR FAR TOO NEAR

WHAT ARE THESE THINGS THAT ECHO FROM THE PAST


WHO ARE THESE GHOSTS YOU SEE AT NIGHT

THERE IN THE SHADOWS OF YOUR LIFE

THEY ONLY LIVE BY THE LIGHT YOU CAST


I'LL KEEP YOUR SECRETS

I'LL HOLD YOUR GROUND

AND WHEN THE DARKNESS STARTS TO FALL

I'LL BE AROUND THERE WAITING

WHEN DREAMS ARE FADING

AND FRIENDS ARE DISTANT AND FEW


KNOW AT THAT MOMENT I'LL BE THERE WITH YOU


I'LL BE AROUND

WHEN THERE'S NO REASON LEFT TO CARRY ON

AND EVERY DREAM YOU'VE EVER HAD IS GONE

AND THE DARK IS DEEP AND BLACK WITHOUT A SOUND

AND EVERY STAR HAS BEEN DRAGGED TO THE GROUND

KNOW AT THAT MOMENT I WILL BE AROUND

KNOW AT THAT MOMENT I WILL BE AROUND


[Beethoven says to Fate that it is now clear to him that it was his deafness that was the cause of all his unhappiness. "Remove this infirmity and my whole life will turn out right. If I had not gone deaf I would still have been able to perform live and Theresa and I would have had a life together."]


[Fate assures him that it can be done but once again feels she must warn him of the consequences. She points out that before his deafness his career was more concentrated on live performance than on composing. The Muses of music had always been speaking to him but it was only after he became deaf that he could clearly hear their voices. "Your live performances were brilliant but they lasted but a moment, while your compositions will echo forever."]


[She then shows Beethoven himself slipping deeper and deeper into his pit of total silence, but all the while the Muses continue to whisper in his ear.]
