Echoes of Light

Light and death! Light and death! All my life I've been searching for light and death And now you say that I have reached it all Well I see... yet I don't believe! It is those blackened skies and echoes of light That I'll strive for at times just to realize That I am nothing and a thousand worlds small But I don't mind... I still want echoes of light! Dust and flame! Dust and flame! It is better to burn than to fade away So let us dance between the lines of what's been told And break with the old! With a restless kind and a doubtful mind I write these lines in the dark of night Because I am nothing and you seem to be all And still I string for the echoes of light! I'm chasing light just to destroy it Drowned by night... just to destroy it! And it is dark! That's why we see! Oh it is dark I'm chasing light just to destroy it Because the pest lies in thy... thy art divine I'm chasing light just to destroy it Drowned by night... just to destroy it

And we labor in light, with our eyes on our back and our hands firmly tied We never want to believe, yet craving to be I want to take you to this other side! Where thoughts are divine, but words are of different kind Where we dance beneath skies, that are as black as our soul inside We carry shadows in the dark We carry shadows down below We carry shadows in the dark We carry shadows on a... night sky of light! We adore the moon yet day it comes too soon So let me take you to this other side Where thoughts are divine, but words are of different kind Where we dance beneath skies, that are as black as our soul inside We carry shadows in the dark... It's like a blinding light that leads But it never leads to see And as we scratch the skuy We get swallowed by night Yes swallowed by night No more echoes of light! We carry shadows in the dark...

And a thousand worlds now die As gold and dust unite I guess I glared with tyrant eyes I guess the fault is all mine You claim the righteous time I claim what's in sight You give and life just takes? Let's share this fault of mine

Let's praise the air And praise the light The light to blend The lungs to squeeze And may events have not been told Tis noble to face the unknown and never told And what will be I cannot see To thirst for dust Quench it by the sea And may this very sun shineth bright You conquered and always will defy all life
