The lyrics of Fear the Dark
« on: July 09, 2010, 09:40:10 am »
I've purchased a digital version and I love this song very much! But where can I find the lyrics?

I'm not sure how I got this. There's an error in there somewhere... I'll fix it eventually.

Quote
Lost to the memory of a perfect soul
deep in the shadows of unrelenting wounds
can´t disappear inside a dream
when pain opens up your heart

you can fear the dark, and hope for the light
when you feel the pain inside
you can cry out loud and pray for the dawn
you´ll find yourself in newborn eyes
and burn away the foolish lies of love

you can´t remember who you are
when you wake up alone in the dark
the love you felt, so far away
fled from the darkness of your soul

we were always meant to be
so you believed
love would never, ever end
only a fool would watch
as the stars faded into winter snow
touched by the tears
of falling angels screaming out for
one more chance to feel first love again
cursed with the memory of her breath

in the dark, in the light
in the cold heart beating out to find
true love
in the cold, in the heat
in the fear that tomorrow never holds
true love

in the dark, in the light (lost to the heart of sea)
in the memories loving her and (memories drift away)
dream of true love (the past but a shade - lost to the waves)
your´re a fool, you´re a saint (my journey here)
you are everything and nothing (a lifetime ago)
we lost true love (lost to the waves - all that I know)

every time you keep on crying
"hope is dead"

yes we had love once, yes we joy once
yes we had light once, and we were one once
yes we were young once, yes we were fools once
yes we had love once

you were my whole world, you were my true friend
you were my light and dark, you where my everything
you took from me my life, you took from me my worth
you took from me my death, now i am nothing but

an empty soul, in darkness crawling out
an empty soul that once felt love
an empty soul, in the darkness spiral up
the lies and dreams we shared
the key was in ourselves

if i can trust myself, if i can heal our world
if i can free the bonds of love
then we can kill the ghost
that haunts us everywhere

the ghost of love that never loved

All versions I found online had errors. Why doesn't the author post the official lyrics?

"an empty soul, in a darkness crawling out" -> "an empty soul, in darkness crawling out"

That's the only mistake that I see in those.  :-*

Fixed ^^

I would've bought the physical soundtrack if I could afford it... T_T
And if my parents wouldn't wonder why I'm receiving a CD in the mail. xD

It's worth the extra, it's got some nice extras. Plus it's good to support Aquaria :D

I don't doubt it's worth... I just can't get it. ._.

I paid the $5 (or was it more?) for the download though, so I'm not one of those evil piratey people. ^^

Being a big fan of both Aquaria and its soundtrack, I also want to post my version of the lyrics. I've bolded the parts which I believe are wrong/missing in Lady-Succubus 's post. Of course, I may be wrong too. :)

Quote
Lost to the memory of a perfect soul
Deep in the shadows of unrelenting wounds
Can't disappear inside a dream
When pain opens up your heart

You can fear the dark and hope for the light
When you feel the pain inside.
You can cry out loud and pray for the dawn
You'll find yourself in newborn eyes
And burn away the foolish lies
Of love

You can't remember who you were
When you wake up alone in the dark
The love you felt so far away
Fled from the darkness of your soul
 
You can fear the dark and hope for the light
When you feel the pain inside
You can cry out loud and pray for the dawn
You'll find yourself in newborn eyes
And burn away the foolish lies
Of love, love, love...

We were always meant to be
So you believed
Love would never ever end
Only a fool would watch as the stars faded into winter snow
Touched by the tears of falling angels screaming out for
One more chance to feel first love again
Cursed with the memory of her breath

In the dark, in the light, in the cold, heart beating out to find true love,
In the cold, in the heat, in the fear that tomorrow never holds true love,
[Lost to the heart of sea, Memories drift away, The past but a shade, Lost to the waves. My journey here, A lifetime ago, Lost to the waves, All that I know.]
In the dark, in the light, in the memories loving her and dreams of true love,
You're a fool, you're a saint, you are everything and now I feel we've lost true love.

Every time you keep on crying hope is dead.

Yes we had love once, yes we had joy once
Yes we had light once, and we were one once
Yes we were young once, yes we were fools once
Yes we had love once.

You were my whole world, you were my true friend,
You were my light at dark, you were my everything,
You took from me my life,
You took from me my worth,
You took from me my death,
Now I am nothing but

An empty soul in darkness crawling out
An empty soul that once felt loved
An empty soul in darkness spiral up
The lies and dreams we shared
The key was in ourselves

If I can trust myself,
If I can heal our world,
If I can free the bonds of love,
Then we can kill the ghost that haunts us everywhere,
The ghost of love that never loved,
The ghost of love that never loved.

Fear the dark and hope for the light
When you feel the pain inside.
You can cry out loud and pray for the dawn.
You'll find yourself in newborn eyes
And burn away the foolish lies
Of love, of love, of love.

That's the lyrics to a part of Lost to the Waves. ^^

You're a fool, you're a saint, you are everything and now I feel we've lost true love.

I think it was right before... I even listened to it myself just now.

Yep but it comes into Fear the Dark as a background melody thing at one point :)

Lady Succubus is correct on this one :D

in the dark, in the light (lost to the heart of sea)
in the memories loving her and (memories drift away)
dream of true love (the past but a shade - lost to the waves)
your´re a fool, you´re a saint (my journey here)
you are everything and nothing (a lifetime ago)
we lost true love (lost to the waves - all that I know)

All this talk makes me want to buy the CD. But I don't have anything to spare right now. Arrgh! I'll wait till after I pass my CompTIA A+ certification (which cost in excess of $300... plus a $50 textbook).
