A Ray Of Moon

Walking in the night through the fallen ruins
far away from the noises of the town
nothing seems to fit in this shadow world
when a vision made his heart to miss a beat 

then the chase began through the silent fields    
and the empty bridges covered in grey moss
after every corner, just a thought away 
he ran to fill the desire that he felt

Leave him alone, you fools
Leave him alone, you fools
don’t you know that all that you pursue 
it’s just a ray of the moon

that he didn’t see
until he realized
that everything was just inside his mind

a ray of the moon
passing through the trees
putting an illusion in front of him
a glimpse of glory
a glimpse of beauty
but atop his lonely tower he remained
