SHIVER LYRICS

"Demo '03" (2003 Demo)

1. Stairway to Hell
2. Falling Snow
3. This is Power
4. The Wind in the Willows







1. Stairway to Hell

I take one step at a time
The sun shines on my back
The darkness greteth me
And sings in front of me

Like the stream runs to the sea
To in equivalence rest and be
I go to where truth lies
I run from illusions of dreams
I run from where happiness seems

For me the promised land
Is not where the sea meets the sand
For me the promised land
Is where no illusions are at hand

I take the stairway to below
I walk the stairway to below

I take two steps at a time
To hurry and to leave
To leave the birchen groove behind
Where the grass gleams between the trunks

Sunbeams sprinkle down on the ground
As the wind whispers the leaves aside
But I see through the lies of dreams
This is not the truth you see
For the leaves are as dead as they can be

For me the promised land
Is not where the sea meets the sand
For me the promised land
Is where no illusions are at hand

Now you know where I walk
I walk the stairway to below

With the scream in my throat
I turn my back on what seems bright
Into the dark out of the light
I feel my anger subside




2. Falling Snow

The snow dances slowly down
From my home

Settling lightly on my wings
White and soft possesses the magic
To create silence
Soothing my pained ears
Rounding and smoothing shapes
Angular and hard lay now underneath

Letting my weary eyes again see
What forever lost will be

Oh, I welcome the snow
I long for my home
Yet I may not yet return
my mission here is not complete
But still I yearn, i yearn
To come home

I wish the words: Heaven to heaven, Sky to sky, Air to air
To, by the call of the gods, be uplifted
To the heavens, oh, the heavens

The snow welcomes you to, To the silent land, Of the whitest sand, of the softest
Brand, now Take its hand, you know it is
So, know, where I go, Know why I you
Leave, See, forever three, Heaven, sky and air

I was sent here on a mission
From above I came, back above I will return

Oh, I welcome the snow
I long for my home
Yet I may not yet return
my mission here is not complete
But still I yearn, i yearn

To come home




3. This is Power

On through the boring day
Up through the endless grey

From the soaked soil
And up through the trees

Spring so clear, up, from the obscure
Clear and fresh, an intoxicating breath

The flood of inspiration pure
Drawn from the rain we endure

This is power

At last the time is here
To rise and shine and elevate
On top of the world we scream
This is the power supreme

We hold the moment in our hands
A thousand points of light

Our endless grasp
From the sky to the underside of the world

We can wake the world
We can make it live

And our presence –lightning, as bright as glory
Life and power we can give

This is power!




4. The Wind in the Willows

On through the boring day
Up through the endless grey

From the soaked soil
And up through the trees

Spring so clear, up, from the obscure
Clear and fresh, an intoxicating breath

The flood of inspiration pure
Drawn from the rain we endure

This is power

At last the time is here
To rise and shine and elevate
On top of the world we scream
This is the power supreme

We hold the moment in our hands
A thousand points of light

Our endless grasp
From the sky to the underside of the world

We can wake the world
We can make it live

And our presence –lightning, as bright as glory
Life and power we can give

This is power!
