AKALLABETH LYRICS
"Tristesse" (2005 Demo)
1. Ascension 2. Erebus 3. The Three Mothers 4. The Shadow of a Dream
1. Ascension
I will walk into the darkness for you
How could I live my life without you?
Cruel fate, that brings me here
What is this world?
Cold and alone without my song.
Follow me back, Follow my song
Follow this path that leads us home
But know, My heart is dying for you.
Plead with me not…
2. Erebus
And the stars fall down
I should have kept this
But all you gave were lies
You open your eyes
Shadows lift
And from a dark room
You reach out
Like a razor your words wound me
Statue standing alone afraid and cold
We only have one choice
~For the opening flower
One life to live today
~For the unfurling dawn
Don’t fade away
~And the fading memories
Into that shadow night
~burned into my soul
All of this hate
I don’t want to see you this way
Adorned with thorns
Leaving me
And the stars fall down
Everything caves in on me
I hear voices calling
I hold onto this thread
The wind opens her arms
Makes a place for me
To lie down
Deep in the earth
Like a razor your words wound me
Statue standing alone afraid and cold
We only have one choice
~For the opening flower
One life to live today
~For the unfurling dawn
Don’t fade away
~And the fading memories
Into that shadow night
~burned into my soul
3. The Three Mothers
The dark wings of the angel
Beat into the night
Into the night.
Her children hold the stars
They carry the fire
And they follow behind.
Lighting up the sky
With an endless army of light in the clouds
And she covers all the Earth
With the promise of tonight.
Beyond the darkness
The haven of angels
Comfort of sleep
Beyond the darkness
She watches
Guardian of me.
Chased by the light of day
She flees, toward hidden dreams
She whispers to the child
Her crown of darkness
Soothes his fear
4. The Shadow of a Dream
A heart of cold solitude
Beats in the snow
Her body resigned
By the truth that she might know.
She leaves this world.
One dies to truly live and she’ll rise
Above this world she grew to despise
Detached from everything she loved
She closes her eyes and she goes on.
She is not here, she is gone.
Cold pale skin, one with Earth
Eyes are closed, she is not here
Clutching flowers in her hand
Spring is not here
And this is her end.
Through fields of forever she dances away.
She climbs the stairs and she sees a new day,
Beyond this life, Beyond this world.
Her voice will echo beyond this Earth.
