Lyrics A Poem for the Firmament - Elvenking

It's simply too hard
To blow out all these fragments of star
The dawn never shines
I'm condemned to this eternal night
Fly away, far away
Oh, whence I could feel you whole
There's a light in your eyes I'll follow
A spark of endless dreams
There's a light in your eyes while you're holding me tight
It enriches my life, it holds me spellbound
It crawls all inside
It's the wish to back down and hide
Like the calm sea
It's the haven of forces within
Fly away, far away
Oh, up this path I rode
I was searching for a reason
I lost the thread of tale, oh
Fly away, far away
Whence I could feel you whole
There's a light in your eyes I'll follow
A spark of endless dreams
There's a light in your eyes while you're holding me tight
It enriches my life, holds me spellbound
On the scars of old runes
Thousands of forgotten memories and hopes are carved in stone
Symbols of my childhood gone
On the wind floats a dream
And hundreds of my broken promises and oaths taken by the stream
Artifacts of what I was
Read the signs on the trees
Written by golden leaves
Winds are howling their serenades
Ancient chants singing all the good aims I betrayed
Another night has passed
And with it all the fears and dreads are gone
And the shadows have faded
Clouds are leaving the sky
The horizon points out new ways to be found
There is always a trail to follow, it will take you home
Follow all the scents before light passes away
Long before the shadows fall
As covering miles in the distance
You will see what you searched
You will catch sight of your dreams
Dwelling forevermore
It's the fatal falling
Wander aimlessly on the path we choose
We're searching for answers that never appear
We're searching for lands beyond all limits
We're falling
Millions of emotions (have) passed through my heart since I'm on this earth
But the ones that remain are the ones we're living for
Follow all the scents before light passes away
Long before the shadows fall
As covering miles in the distance
You will see what you searched
You will catch sight of your dreams
Dwelling forevermore
It's the fatal falling
Wander aimlessly on the path we choose
We're searching for answers that never appear
We're searching for lands beyond all limits
We're falling
Oh, we're falling
It's the sweetest night of all
It's a moment that lengthens to eternity and more
While the flakes soundless will fall
I hear the sound of laugther coming from so high above
And the promise once made now has broken
The curtain slowly falls
On the angel that kissed me
It's the night of cruel remorse
It remains only a distant memory of things undone
A return to innocence
A travel back in time when everything seems clear and pure
And the promise once made now has broken
The curtain slowly falls
On the angel that kissed me
Cursed, cursed
That lone and threadlike figure
So shapelessly unbounded
Will haunt that empty jar that is me
Cursed, cursed
I'm deep into transparency
A dreamy spiral taircase
A voice, a whisper, echo in the gloom
Cursed (cursed), cursed (cursed)
I sharpen all my sleeping senses
Encircle my own wish
I'll never die!
Cursed, cursed
A gloomy sense of sadness
Impaled my arid heart
To the scepter of melancholy
Cursed (cursed), cursed (cursed)
On the stroke of my halfhour
The token has been shown
Eternal wearing the red death masque
Thousand ways of living
In the end (I) got my reward
I don't feel alone no more
Fly away, far away
Oh, up this path I rode
I was searching for a reason
I lost the thread of tale, oh
Fly away, far away
Whence I could feel you whole
There's a light in your eyes I'll follow
A spark of endless dreams
There's a light in your eyes while you're holding me tight
It enriches my life, holds me spellbound
On the scars of old runes
Thousands of forgotten memories and hopes are carved in stone
Symbols of my childhood gone
On the wind floats a dream
And hundreds of my broken promises and oaths taken by the stream
Artifacts of what I was
Read the signs on the trees
Written by golden leaves
Winds are howling their serenades
Ancient chants singing all the good aims I betrayed
It's the fatal falling
Wander aimlessly on the path we choose
We're searching for answers that never appear
We're searching for lands beyond all limits
We're falling
It's the fatal falling
Wander aimlessly on the path we choose
We're searching for answers that never appear
We're searching for lands beyond all limits
We're falling
