When a Shadow Is Forced Into the Light

Inside the night there's a firelight between the worlds, at the edge of dark. Inside the fire there's a blinding light, the flame that burns between the worlds. At the edge of the dark! When a shadow is forced into the light it rips through your chest and burns like a fire. When a shadow is forced into the light, and the blood of the serpents will burst under brightest stars. And the wings will carry these shadow and the light, and the scars like diamonds will cut through the veil of night. The clouds apart and new stars alight between the worlds, in the sea of the sky. The sun and moon shines from your eyes, lead me home through the map of skies from the edge of the night. When a shadow is forced into the light it rips through your chest and burns like a fire. When a shadow is forced into the light, and the blood of the serpents will burst under brightest stars. And the wings will carry these shadow and the light, and the scars like diamonds will cut through the veil of night. At the edge of the dark, at the heart of the dark, at the edge of the dark. Where I stare the night straight in the eye and the demons of deep will arrive. From the wounds they bleed out their black blood like oil and I spark the flame of the night. And I will melt these chains and forge them as a crown, drag those shadows to the light From the heart of the dark, at the edge of the dark. From the edge! When a shadow is forced into the light it rips through your chest and burns like a fire. When a shadow is forced into the light, and the blood of the serpents will burst under brightest stars.

The crimson crown fell from the blood red sky through the golden clouds. Out from the crown grew mountains and the skies, out from the diamond drops the sea and stars. Upon the circle shines the all-seeing eye between the Earth and the crimson crown. Shines through the golden clouds! The forest sleeps so quiet like flowers in your arms as the white swans of the night fly by the bridge of stars. And I bow before the moon and I pray to the skies, when mist falls on your garden bless your temple of the star. And the night falls like silence, and the night like velvet silence. In this temple of the golden nightingale these flowers still weep so silent, dance around the gentle moonlight with the touch of the summer wind. And the lakes glimmer silver like the tears from your eyes, but there are no goodbyes just light between the stars. Sing for the night, sing for the morning rise like birds of the night upon the light of the Evenstar. The Goddess of the Sky, a lighthouse in the night. These temples won't fall built on a crimson crown. Out from the crown grew mountains and the skies, out from the diamond drops the sea and stars. Upon the circle shines the all-seeing eye between the Earth and the crimson crown. Shines through the golden clouds!

Speak through the silence, lay down your crown, lay down your fight. And when you speak the words of silence, walls will crumble in and skies open. And when you speak, you speak with silence, and I carve each word you sing on my stone wings and the light will pour in. The fires are burning under the starlight, through veils of golden light, the sails so pure, so white. Through the river of death I carry you, my love. Breathe in the night, my arms alight. And when you speak the words of silence, walls will crumble in and skies open. And when you speak, you speak with silence, and I carve each word you sing on my stone wings and the light will pour in. I threw this iron crown into the eye of inferno. This lake of fire, this pit of ghosts. Breathing in the dark, exhaling the dust of stars. In this shrine of silver light, on the edge of the moon, you sing to me. The river flows so deep through my heart and through my eyes as you turn into the light the dust of silver stars. And when you speak the words of silence, walls will crumble in and skies open. And when you speak, you speak with silence, and I carve each word you sing on my stone wings and the light will pour in. Carve each word you sing on my stone wings now.

Years passing by, your mind messed up, so is life. Where did this come from? Struggling through the night with only clouds on your side. It's not true though, it's not true. To bleed is to feel in your core. Dreams fall apart! Don't you ever, don't you ever close your heart to me. Don't you ever, don't you ever close your heart to me! Things always fall apart, rips your heart out thousand times. It's not the end though! Falling through the sunken skies with your words by my side. It's not the end though, it's not the end. To bleed is to feel! Dreams fall apart! Don't you ever, don't you ever close your heart to me. Dreams fall apart! Don't you ever never say never, it's not over now. "Que les cieux noirs d'orage Chassent le voile devant tes yeux Ainsi que tu as chuté tu t'élèveras Tombant au travers des miroirs de ton espirit Qui t'ont gardé sauf et aveugle Une chute libre dont tu ne vois pas la fin À présent laisse l'air caresser ta peau Gisent encore des fragments épars Dans la fissure entre les marées Mais la vérité seule survivra Tout le reste périra par le feu Sous des nuages de pluie sombres À travers ton océan de douleur Le soleil de nouveau percera Et tu verras un autre jour"

You're the island in the sea of time, I'm the ghost ship in the night. In the eye of the storm you're the lighthouse, I am at the edge of the world beyond the walls. Death tore out the flesh from my bones, left my soul so pale and hollow. My hands reach into the void where you used to be! Built my armour from the bones of them angels, breathing out the arrows of God. My hands reach into the void where you used to be. You're the island on the broken sky, I will keep my sacred vows. Under moonlit skies here on the black earth, in the fragments of an empty heart Where you used to be. Death tore out the flesh from my bones, left my soul so pale and hollow. My hands reach into the void where you used to be! Built my armour from the bones of them angels, breathing out the arrows of God. My hands reach into the void where you used to be. Riding on the edge of the world, now free like the racing clouds circling around the halo of the moon. Riding on the edge of the world, now free like the racing clouds circling around the halo of the moon like the birds of the night when touched by the sun. You're the island in the sea of sky, I'm the ghost ship in the night. In the eye of the storm you're my lighthouse, I'm at the edge of the world.

Left my heart on the battlefield, nothing left to fight for. Strip down all my beliefs, nothing left to die for. It's too late to dream again of tomorrow without the dark that will remain within me. Please light, don't let me win when I walk into night without you. Please light, hide deep within where the shadows can't reach you. Please light, don't let me win when I walk into night without you, without you into the eye. And it's too late to turn back again! Walk beside, along the light in the dead of night within me. Please light, don't let me win when I walk into night without you. Please light, hide deep within where the shadows can't reach you. Please light, don't let me win when I walk into night without you, without you into the eye. The bridge I built from these empty arms, no life or death will tear these hearts apart. Echoes over aeons of time upon the stars Upon the stars! Please light, don't let me win when I walk into night without you. Please light, hide deep within where the shadows can't reach you. Please light, don't let me win when I walk into night without you, without you into the eye. Empty rooms but you never left, empty house but you never left. Empty rooms but you never left, empty arms but you never left. Empty rooms but you never left, empty heart but you never left. Never left...
