Bury all your secrets in my skin / Come away with innocence/ And leave with my sins/ The air around me still feels like a cage/ Love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again.../ So if you love, me let me go/ and Run away before i know/ My heart is just too dark to care,/i can’t destroy what isn’t there/ Deliver me into my fate/ If i’m alone i cannot hate/i don’t deserve to have you../ My smile was taken long ago/ If i can change i hope i never know/I still press your letters to my lips/ And cherish them in parts of me/ That savor every kiss/ I couldn’t face a life without your light/ But all of that was ripped apart/...When you refuse to fight/ So save your breath I will not hear/ I think i made it very clear/ You couldn’t hate enough to love/ Is that suposed to be enough?/I only wish you weren’t my friend/ Then i could hurt you in the end/I never claimed to be a saint.../ My love was banished long ago/ It took the death of the hope to let you go/So break yourself against my stones/And spit your pity in my soul/You never needed any help/You sold me out to save yourself/And I won’t to listen to your shame/You ran away you’re all the same/...Angels lie to keep control..my love was punished long ago/ if you still care don't ever let me know../ if you still care don't ever let me know../

dopo che lui ebbe concluso, tacquero entrambi un momento. poi lei domandò: " e più tardi diventarono marito e moglie?"

"credo di sì...più tardi"

"e poi sono morti?"

"no" rispose deciso lui. "l'ho saputo per caso. lo specchio magico rendeva mortale qualcuno solo se era solo a specchiarsi. se però erano in due a guardarsi, tornavano immortali. e così successe a quei due."

grande e argentea sostava la luna sopra i pini scuri e faceva splendere misteriosamente le antiche pietre dei ruderi. lui e lei sedevano vicini, in silenzio; la guardarono e sentirono con chiarezza che, per la durata di quell'istante, erano entrambi immortali.
