lyrics
Gather around
Sit on the ground
When you will find the veil and the crown
Lift the curtains
Tear apart the barricades
Rain has come and wiped our tears away
Wind is humming a distant lullaby
And the notes reflect among the leaves
Mold has covered walls that stood in vain
And the palace has crumbled upon
the falling rain
The king and queen have thrown away the key
Smiles and wonders treading on the stone
Muffled with thick layers of lingering dust
Signed with sweat and sealed with blood
So indifferent against the flow
Wishes uttered upon corrupted skies
are like withered leaves carried by the howling wind
In shades of brown and gray the chains grow weary
from the falling rain
The king and queen have thrown away the key
to our cage
In endless rain the pages soak with tears
And then the wall shall fall to bury us beneath
Say, when we face the end will you remember my name
inside the darkness that we carried all the way?
And when mold consumes the remains
on the crimson terrain
Will you try to lift your head again?
Paper burned among the ink of memories
Worn away with time
Witness to red sky
Ancient tome in vortex shuts itself again
Bearer of the light within the dread
Towers crumble
Castle falls upon the weight
Shattered by the wind
Torn apart with sin
Fortress to unspoken wishes in the blood
Carried through the storm against its will
Final chapter, final act before the end
Whispered ear to ear
Lives in memories
Kings and queens are buried under flowing ink
One of stories told in endless rain
