Title: Dybbuk
Words: Gackt Camui
Music: Gackt Camui

Silver dream, spin the melody of the rain
Who's that standing behind you?
I closed my eyes, to see you once more

My burnt arms are bound in chains
The wounds torn open held by the sun
Light and Shadows pierce me through,
watching...

'you can't change just yet... so, close your eyes.'

(Dybbuk!) burned by the sun,
(Dybbuk!) destroy my body
(Dybbuk!) pain and seperation,
(Dybbuk!) stop time dead
(Dybbuk!) spurned on by the sun,
(Dybbuk!) leave my body in its care
(Dybbuk) held by the loneliness, kill me dead.

I can't wait for you to get here,
Don't stop, oh rain which foretells the end
Don't cry, until the wish we painted out comes true

'I'm not going anywhere just yet, so hold me... '

(Dybbuk!) burned by the sun,
(Dybbuk!) destroy my body
(Dybbuk!) pain and seperation,
(Dybbuk!) stop time dead
(Dybbuk!) spurned on by the sun,
(Dybbuk!) leave my body in its care
(Dybbuk) held by the loneliness, kill me dead.

'your wish will never come true,
so reach out your hand'

(Dybbuk!) burned by the sun,
(Dybbuk!) destroy my body
(Dybbuk!) pain and seperation,
(Dybbuk!) stop time dead
(Dybbuk!) spurned on by the sun,
(Dybbuk!) leave my body in its care
(Dybbuk) held by the loneliness, kill me dead.
