Lyrics - Tears of The Dragon by Bruce Dickinson

For too long now, there were secrets in my mind
For too long now, there were things
I should have said
In the darkness...i was stumbling for the door
To find a reason - to find the time, the place, the hour
Waiting for the winter sun, and the cold light of day
The misty ghosts of childhood fears
The pressure is building, and
I can’t stay away
I throw myself into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face the fear
I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me
Where
I was,
I had wings that couldn’t fly
Where
I was,
I had tears
I couldn’t cry
My emotions frozen in an icy lake
I couldn’t feel them until the ice began to break
I have no power over this, you know
I’m afraid
The walls
I built are crumbling
The water is moving,
I’m slipping away...
I throw myself into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face the fear
I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me
Slowly
I awake, slowly
I rise
The walls
I built are crumbling
The water is moving,
I’m slipping away...
I throw (
I throw)
Myself (myself)
Into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face (to face)
The fear (the fear)
I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me
I throw (
I throw)
Myself (myself)
Into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face (to face)
The fear (the fear)
I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me
