Lyrics

Shadow dragon on my wall
Swallows my ice skates whole
If it could speak what would it tell
Creature of some subtle magic spell

Its talons open slowly
Clawing scratching scraping down the bedroom wall
At specks of dust illumined by a single candle
Skating on the thinnest ice of all

And as the wax devolves on nightstand dreary
The ghostly hero slowly fading
Its residue of midnight like a paint upon my wall
A sleepless dream awaking
When my dragon comes to call

So for another night these wings will set me gliding
Through a silhouette of stars
Gaining strength for the next new taper
Practicing these dreams that might be ours

And as the wax devolves on nightstand dreary
The ghostly hero slowly fading
Its residue of midnight like a paint upon my wall
A sleepless dream awaking
When my dragon comes to call

Shadow dragon on my wall
Swallows my ice skates whole
If it could speak what would it tell
Creature of some subtle magic spell

A sleepless dream awaking
When my dragon comes to call
