Twilight

By LostInTime

So near is twilight to the Gods
So far from heaven are we
We are but ashes on the fire
And the flame we cannot see

We are but players on a stage
And puppets on a string
When the curtain rises
The puppets start to sing

We act out love and laughter
And act out deeds of sin
But when the curtain drops
The twilight closes in
