4. For Those Who Are Left Behind
1. Silent Waterstream
Silent Waterstream
The truth is harsh, that is why it has never been told
I beg you on my knees, my head against the floor
To me it seems that in darkness, the world is fold
Is it true nobody will speak, can you tell me more
Reality is gone in the quest for the source of life
Until now it has been like living in a constant dream
Redeem me from my gloomy thoughts, and my inner strife
Please let them flow away, like a silent waterstream
I lost myself in the rhythm of my breathing
Waterstream
I found myself in a caress of silence
Silent Waterstream
2. The Witch In Me
The Witch In Me
Dans le forêt, si noir que la nuit peut devenir, respirer
In the forest, so black that you inhale the night
Echo transmitted tales of an ancient might
Standing in the circle, surrounded by candlelight
Listening while I'm blindfolded, naked and tied
Praise the seasons, praise the night
Witches teach me how to see
This initiation enlarged my sight
I now found the witch in me
Through the lucid eyes of witches you'll see
The things that man can't see anymore
The origin of life still lives in every tree
That in the witchcraft lies the source of all the lore
Praise the seasons, praise the night
Witches teach me how to see
This initiation enlarged my sight
I now found the witch in me
The salty lips, the fivefold kiss
On my whole body there's no spot they miss
These words, a vow of secrecy
A flagellation, forty times, sealing this
Receive the atheme, its effects will make me rich
Because the seeds of fertility I now sow
I stand the invocation of witch
For complete wisdom there are two more to go
Praise the seasons, praise the night
Witches teach me how to see
This initiation enlarged my sight
I now found the witch in me
3. Along Ethereal Levels
Along Ethereal Levels
Tiredness and sleep we expound
As a natural urgency to redeem
From the flesh to dwell 'round
And project experiences in a dream
Climb into the astral tree step by step
Meet all the angels and see your God
Rise along ethereal paths, fly into the web
Filled with symbols, representing your lot
See, hear, ethereal levels
Touch, feel, ethereal levels
See, hear, ethereal levels
Touch, feel, ethereal levels
While you move in a deep trance
Stepping out of your earthly shell
Filled with divinity so immense
You're visiting heaven, while you saw hell
Reach the last chakra at the top of the tree
This divine feeling that seizes your soul
In a deep meditation it could happen to me
In a boundless light, you approach the goal
See, hear, ethereal levels
Touch, feel, ethereal levels
Along ethereal levels
4. For Those Who Are Left Behind
For Those Who Are Left Behind
Like the clouds that sail along the endless sky
And roses give out their colour to the air
Like swans that start to sing before they die
I comfort you, surrounding you with care
You bear the cross of guild and of regret
While my fingers seize your pale arms
"Hold me for the last time", I believe you said
Freezing thoughts won't stop me from keeping you warm
The pulsating of the heart goes on and on and on and on…
Weakness becomes the king of thy being
When cathedrals of hope collapse
Pictures of thy life pass by in the last seconds
Never have known the meaning of life
Until it ends…
I sit alone, your head upon my hands
I cry over you while you are feeling free
Cause now you are, you are in the revealing lands
Passed away taking along a part of me
It is hard for me, for me to see you die
Through all the tears, tears that make me blind
It is hard for you, for you to see me cry
And you won't forget those who are left behind…
