Under clear skies, summer is dying
As the sun sets over the empty fields
And silence befalls me
-
Still, I watch the silhouettes stir frantically
The night descends, our peace forsaken
We can not stay
+++
We've come too far from the mountains
To watch our dreams fade
And sink into the ocean
+++
Out of the forest, the threshold of light
Reveals the empty faces of men absent of life
Enthralled by fear, I run for salvation
Some may follow closely, while others fall prey to ruination
They say never look back, you'll only make it worse
Until this night is done, we will continue to traverse
Our way back home
-
Stay close, we'll carry through, I swear
Overt your eyes, I'll burn it all away
I'll burn it all away
-
Concealed in ashes, ambition reborn
Our dreams become reality, the skies have torn
Unveiling lustrous rays of dawn
Ascend new heights, cast us into the rift
Deliver us
+++
We've come too far from the mountains
To watch our dreams fade
And sink into the ocean
No more tears will fall again
Nor will we sleep here forever
In this place, we find ourselves
Awakened and unafraid
+++
Leave this place
The tides have shifted
The weight is lifted
The hell we've walked through is no longer in us
Cleansed by fire
Our desire
For a better world will move us higher
