The Skies Above Eternity - ザ・スカイズ・アバヴ・エターニティ
Growing up on melting wings The truth will out; I’ve cut my strings But still I hope that father time Keeps memories of me If I Point to starboard To the clouds above the sea Through the daring heights and darker skies I ache to sail free So we’ll embark Oh we’ll set sail again Dawn, dusk or dark, you’ll Carry us over the wailing ocean We’ll make a mark on all Each and every tidal pull we sail on! Hold up your hearts again Return to days from then Glory abounds in every Soul that seeks the truth Now we Tell our tales with Mighty songs All for the hearts here, just beating along I barely remember The person who I spent Half a life avoiding and The other half pretending to be If I Spin a tale Of growing up And growing free I can live within the sea of who I Swear one day I’ll be So we’ll embark Oh we’ll Set sail again Dawn, dusk or dark, you’ll Carry us over the wailing ocean We’ll make a mark on all Each and every tidal pull we sail on! Hold up your hearts again Return to days from then Glory abounds in every Soul that seeks the truth Now we Tell our tales with Mighty songs All for the hearts here, just beating along Hold up your hearts again Return to days from then Glory abounds in every Soul that seeks the truth, oh! Hold up your hearts again Return to days from then Glory abounds in every Soul that seeks the truth Now we tell our tales with Mighty songs All for the hearts here, just beating along All for the hearts here, who carry the song

Heartbeats and tired eyes A weight upon my feet Breaks through with every step Each print a part of me Left in the dirt and left all behind I'm scared and I'm empty, barely alive But all this growing up Just makes it hard to breathe Take the measure Take it twice Face the pleasure Every vice Stand together Standing by But it's gone beyond my needs Will I always feel like a victim? Will I always fight on my own? Am I lamb or am I lion? Please believe me As I grow into the shadow of my throne A king is king alone I'll toil eternally So long as I am strong Enough to hold my body Together for them all Passing the days with kindness and cruelty The weight of the morning dusk still pulls me And all this work is only half the work I need Take the measure Take it twice Face the pleasure Every vice Stand together Standing by But it's gone beyond my needs Will I always feel like a victim? Will I always fight on my own? Am I lamb or am I lion? Please believe me As I grow into the shadow of my throne A king is king A lonely life awaits my heart So life divine embrace me You burden all the higher threats So wait for something more I'll take the final stride And destiny's across my path Sometimes I wish I was nothing at all I will always feel like a victim I will always fight on my own I am lamb but am I lion, please believe me I will grow to overshadow any throne I swear I won't Always feel like a victim I won't always fight on my own I am lamb and am I lion, I will be my own messiah I will grow to overshadow any throne I swear I won't Always feel like a victim I won't always fight on my own So forgive me these transgressions as I live a life of lessons And I grow to overshadow darker thrones This king is king alone

Apathy enraged, I'll purge these graying days, Beaten down and beating out A rhythm now of change! I am on my way Come riot, come the reign, Join if you can justify, A hope beyond today. Yet on the other side, The rain it shines like gold and silver. I'll bring the rust of discontent. Am I the only one Who'd brave the bitter wind to fly? Am I the only one Who takes the battle in his stride? Am I the only one who knows, There's no subsitute for hope? I'll go far beyond these barricades. Lowly are our days While life is lived this way. Join in our half-lives defined By sharing out our pain. I refuse to wait. I'll steal my own escape. If they rot then so begot, In sameness they remain. Yet on the other side, The rain it shines like gold and silver. I'll bring the rust of discontent. Am I the only one Who'd brave the bitter wind to fly? Am I the only one Who takes the battle in his stride? Am I the only one who knows, There's no subsitute for hope? I'll go far beyond these barricades. We are the, we are the iron Made to shield the hope of dawn. We are the, we are the iron. Melt us down, you'll see our Faces in the sword. [Solo: Wosko] Am I the only one, Who'd brave the bitter wind to fly? Am I the only one Who takes the battle in his stride? Am I the only one who knows, There's no subsitute for hope? I'll go far beyond these Barricades. Am I the only one, Who'd brave the bitter wind to fly. Am I the only one? Who takes the battle in his stride. Am I the only one who knows, There's no subsitute for hope, I'll go far beyond these Barricades.

I know the Iron sky Could never stop this light Not when the dawn is strong Enough to break the heart of night Someday the sun will melt these iron eyes Sometimes I think I might have seen too much My iris aches for a human touch I've watched a thousand little lives pass here The dark imprints, the horror sears Sometimes I think I might have borne too much My shoulders ache, my alloy rusts My legs are armoured by the scars and tears And I know too my body is getting there I'm made of memories and bronze and scrap My bones are silver and my eyes are black I am the armour and the sheath and in Your fire I forge my skin I know the Iron Sky Could never stop this light Not when these wings of purpose Beat against the night My eyes, they gleam and glimmer as I testify (Testify) So as the light decays Against the dying days I'll let its warm embrace Upon my heart engrave A mark, my skin is steel under darker skies Iron eyes Upon the roots I lay my path ahead The seedlings bloom, under tar and dread But still, I stand beneath a tree that bears The scars of a wasteland, a life repaired Under my armour lies an unknown thing The blood writes its songs and its ardor sings Maxim invulnerable, but self-impaired No one ever loved without first being scared I'm made of memories and bronze and scrap My bones are silver and my eyes are black I am the armour and the sheath and in Your fire I forge my skin I know the Iron Sky Could never stop this light Not when these wings of purpose Beat against the night My eyes, they gleam and glimmer as I testify (Testify) So as the light decays Against the dying days I'll let its warm embrace Upon my heart engrave A mark, my skin is steel under darker skies Iron eyes Truth comes as porcelain, a fragile friend To hide within our timbers My wooden soul will keep it strong and keep it hidden My courage ebbs and smoulders As it does in every one of us I pray it burns right through my chest I'm made of memories and bronze and scrap My bones are silver and my eyes are black I am the armour and the sheath and in Your fire I forge my skin The fire beats the sin I know the Iron Sky Will never stop this light Not when the dawn is strong Enough to break the heart of night Someday the sun will melt these iron eyes I know the iron sky Will never stop this light Not when these wings of purpose Beat against the night My eyes, they gleam and glimmer as I testify (Testify) So as the light decays Against the dying days I'll let its warm embrace Upon my heart engrave A mark, my skin is steel under darker skies I know the iron sky Won't stop my light My eyes, they gleam and glimmer as I testify (Testify) So as the light decays These dying days leave a mark My skin is steel under darker skies, iron eyes

Touch a spark from this flint of mine, Make mortar for my heart again. Beat back hope as the red hands rise; In unison our scars we mend. Hollow now are the days still left And hollow I reflect again. If there was fight still left I'd beat My fear to death. I require, a modicum of ire, just to Spite the fire, and stoke the flame That brought me here so strong. Fight the calling of eternity, Fight broken if you have to be. I swear within my chest I'm burning Strong! I keep my keys beside my heart, dust Lines them all. Break through every possibility. Break promises or destiny. If hope is all that's left, unseal my Heart: Show me the person I become. Breach the wall with a tired friend. It's hard to look through eyes this Red. But brace the iris and suture on, These wounds that bitter men Have wrought. Scream your words to the iron Sky; I dare you, come for my empire! I swear I'm made for more, lay Every fear to rest. I require, a modicum of ire, just to Spite the fire, and stoke the flame That brought me here so strong. Fight the calling and eternity, Fight broken if you have to be. I swear within my chest I'm burning Strong! I keep my keys beside my heart, dust Lines them all. Break through every possibility. Break promises or destiny. If hope is all that's left, unseal my Heart: Show me the person I become. [Solo: Wosko] Cowardice, old friend, make me Whole again, Bid farewell to clinging tight to Me. Wrath and fire, engine of ire, Put our differences aside, once More. I can measure strength by amity, I will live relentlessly. I swear within my chest I'm Burning strong. I keep my keys beside my heart, Dust lines them all... Fight the calling of eternity Fight broken if you have to be. I swear within my chest I'm burning Strong! I keep my keys beside my heart, dust Lines them all. Break through every possibility. Break promises or destiny. If hope is all that's left, unseal my Heart: Show me the person I become. Show me the person I become

I tried my best to make it; To be, to break, to change things For the better, love enlaboured... But still you carry me along. Can't anybody make it stop? Break every bone my body's got. Rebuild, rebuild, rebuild, But never quite complete. I am only Half as lonely As I'd like to be. Shattered mirror, Water and blood... Drink down every part of me. I was the wind that carried you along, Don't leave me Here, with the fear I tore asunder; Please believe I tried. Though a king of nothing I've a crown made Of gold and scorn. And though you could never hear me, I was Trying, I was trying, I was trying. Not every step comes easy Prints in the ash, but fading Faster than my heart is racing - Why won't you carry me alon? I am asunder, I am wrong. In iron skies reflected, gone. I knew the future and The burden made me strong. I am only Half as lonely As I'd like to be. Shattered mirror, Water and blood... Drink down every part of me. I was the wind that carried you along, Don't leave me Here, with the fear I tore asunder; Please believe I tried. Though a king of nothing I've a crown made Of gold and scorn. And though you could never hear me, I was Trying, I was trying, I was trying. Silver lining, Heart arising, Sun providing, Faith surviving, Redefining; No denying, No decrying, I was trying all the same. [Solo: Browne] I was the wind that carried you along, Don't leave me Here, with the fear I tore asunder Please believe I tried. Though a king of nothing I've a crown Made of gold and scorn. And though you could never hear me, I was trying, I was trying, I'm still... I was the wind that carried you along, Don't leave me Here, with the fear I tore asunder Please believe I Tried, though a king of nothing see This crown that I have forged, And though you could never hear me, I was trying, I'm still trying, I'm still trying!

Wait, no one knew the day was gone, Or that it would bring the starsong... Why is the dawn so long? Waves crash upon the fallen sky. The sand and the wind are in my eyes; I still won't blink or cry. I won't miss a single moment, I Resolve these tired eyes To witness the light. If this is the end, At least I'm with friends. Value the long Goodbye. Ask of the stars, one more Hurrah, This is who we are. If this is our time, Don't waste it crying out For something more... If life ends here then smile wide I just hope the world ends slow, tonight. Wait, ashes wipe away what remains, When faced with this we're all the Same... Save those who face away. So say, we are but an ancient throng; Children who stole the right from Wrong. That's how we grow so strong. I won't miss a single moment, I Resolve these tired eyes To witness the light. If this is the end, At least I'm with friends. Value the long Goodbye. Ask of the stars, one more Hurrah, This is who we are. If this is our time, Don't waste it crying out For something more... If life ends here then smile wide I just hope the world ends slow, tonight. To choose a life without a friend, To fight against the certain end? Avert your eyes then, And live as kings with nothing left Again! [Solo: Browne] Wait, universe please wait, If only for a minute. I swear to live it Without hesitance or shame. Weight, Oh God I know the weight, But revel in burdens lifting late. I only bend, not break. I won't miss a single moment, I Resolve these tired eyes To witness the light. If this is the end, At least I'm with friends. Value the long Goodbye. Ask of the stars, one more Hurrah, This is who we are. If this is our time, Don't waste it crying out For something more... If life ends here then smile wide I just hope the world ends slow, tonight. If life ends here then smile wide I just hope the world ends slowly, Life Is better lived with open eyes. I just hope the world ends slow, Tonight.

Have I ever been alone, On a journey filled with ghosts Of adventures and raconteurs who Lend me hope? There's an ocean in my eyes But I'll blink away the brine, And remember all this fondly when I'm old. Now I lie beneath the clouds Seeing shapes within my doubt. Making faces out of rain that's yet to Come my way. Their stares will guide me on, Each endeavor makes a song, I can sing when nights get cold. The hope of a new day is dawning, For now our fear is a thing of the past. Collide every heart here with empathy; Life may be fleeting, but memories last. If only I could know Coming futures unforetold, Felling ivory and towers, And the hearts they hold, Nothing ever lights the way. Nothing comforts or assuages, But onward still we row. The hope of a new day is dawning, For now our fear is a thing of the past. Collide every heart here with empathy; Life may be fleeting, but memories last. I swear... To all my fallen friends, Brush dust off the mantle you pass, Though you may hide, One day will these The walls will lie In spite of how they stood... For all my fallen friends, This grey old life remains, I'll use it to keep you alive, Long as you're close, Long as this grey old life remains. [Solo: Wosko] The hope of a new day is dawning, For now our fear is a thing of the past. Collide every heart here with empathy; Life may be fleeting, but memories last. The hope of a new day is dawning, For now our fear is a thing of the Past. Collide every heart here with Empathy; Life may be fleeting, it all goes too Fast... But memories last. This too shall pass, But memories last. I'll keep these memories of ours with Me when everything has passed.
