Skydancer

Labyrinth of time...
Mine alone for now and ever more
(I'm all alone...)


...and I flew
above sepulchral monoliths,
nebulously dancing beneath the dew
(Of morning, in ye twilight land of old)
Abiding teardrops borne by thorns,
thine fragments I twine true
(In mourning, stream adorned in rage untold)


...flow adorned in rage untold
Eternal - forever - more
And they'll forever grow
and hold in heart what springs anew


From the shadows glades unwitnessed
which light the flames
from deep within where we all grew
...Everlasting ember-glow


Labyrinth of Time,
in harmony confined


Thus the dark heat from
beyond the stars
engulfed a world of fear still robed in ice
A throne in fire dies...
Pulsating through the skies


He who wore the gown
shall drown the "Reich of tears" in cries
Enthroned in fire dies...
A kingdom's last demise


And I know...
The ardent hearth midst life and death
won't end my journey morrowless
(I won't laugh in mirth all sorrowless)


Come, fly afloat on a wave of emotions,
of crestfallen scorn
Oh, this my whirlwind of darkness
a tide I once lulled but alas now withdrawn


Now...hand in hand with sorrow
towards the still, perpetual seas
Into the tranquil depths of solitude
in bliss my spirit flees


Through the wind I will go
To my twilight land, alone
Where sanctuary is mine
Within my throne world, my labyrinth of time


And he who is the God
of an infinite shape and faces,
ever weaving fates of life
upon the pattern of his traces
In the Golden Dawn of Winter
he'll stand risen from the night
in serenity all solemn,
clad in moonlight's milky white


Through the wind I will go
To my twilight land, alone
Where sanctuary is mine
Within the hands of this labyrinth of time


Labyrinth of time...
Eternal - forever - more
Time...infinity of mind
Divinity of life


Labyrinth of time
In harmony confined


Burn - upon my
Might - by my
Command - into the fire


Your throne of fire fell...
Bestowed upon your Hell


Burnt shall be your
"Might", and your
command shan't drown my fire
(...My Faeryland Forgotten)


...Mine alone for now and ever more
