[Lyrics: Marchosias]
|
|
Wandering draped in smothered moonlight
|
Distant memories consume my mind
|
Amidst these blackened ancient woods
|
The profound smell of grievance slumbers
|
Unfolding dreams seem vague but still
|
As the fields of old draw near
|
And these mountains I still recognise
|
(Bloodstained memories emerge)
|
|
"I see a maiden, young and fair, falling lifeless to the ground
|
A gleam once touched her face and hair yet now is nowhere to be found
|
Slain by black, audacious steel, her earthly ties are torn
|
Hatred chose her fate to seal through this malicious scorn"
|
|
A flash turns fire into stone
|
The gruesome dark of night weighs stronger
|
Striding forth through veils of fog
|
Unable to conquer my shadowworld
|
A sudden outburst lights the sky
|
Reveals the tortured ground I stand
|
Once again my body trembles
|
And longhidden visions come to mind
|
|
"I see her face cast into stone, engraved in darkness since that day
|
Under a moon so blue and roan her purest splendour fades away
|
But behold a cosmic sign as swirling clouds pass by
|
A new-born, bright star burns in line and lightens up the astral sky"
|
|
After all these years that passed
|
Here over the fields of old
|
I stumble upon an ancient stone
|
The air around it dead and cold
|
Suddenly all is clear to me
|
As the shadowworld opens its gates once more
|
