An apology to those I've never known,
And to those I have it's all the same,
Everything is different now,

I listen to the cries I've never heard,
And cry a cry that no one knows,
Every melancholic flute that plays
Is a ladder rung to better ways,

In an angel's face,
A faceless grace,
Only I have sensed my disgrace,
And I know I'm wrong in every song,
In every song...

Empty is he who fills his plate,
of the tears and pleads of heedless needs,
An apology to those I've never known,
In heedless hopes we're all alone,

Alone and lost, by dreamers tossed,
Every dreamer's dream is lost,
A dream that dreams is a dreamer's cost,
This dreamer dreams till all is lost,
till all is lost...

In an angel's face,
A faceless grace,
Only I have sensed my disgrace,
And I know I'm wrong in every song,
In every song...
