The Fool Songtext
von Æther Realm

In the Shadow of the Light
I lived as a Shadow of my past Life

In the Shadow of the Light
In the Shadow of the Light

Tears of the Father, Blood of the Son
Through Years of Dishonor, come undone
So I′ll armor myself with this Knowledge
And I'll match my Speed to the Wind
I′ll journey away, far from this Place
And pray, none will know me as a "Friend"

In the Shadow of the Light
I lived as a Shadow of my past Life

In the Shadow of the Light
In the Shadow of the Light

By Moonlight and Starlight
Those Shadows let me astray
Take Comfort in Darkness
Hide me away from the Light


Her Hand gripped mine
I went with an open Mind
But the Light she shined on me
Burned me deep down to my Bones
And I promised I would never
Allow myself to feel the Light again

Through the Flesh that sloughed from the Bone
Was blackened and diseased
That Flesh was not my Flesh
That Blood was not my Blood
Yet still in the Shadow I hide
Drag me back into the Grave
And let me die

Cling to comfort, Child
No longer suffer with Pride
The Pain healing, wait not
For Time will surely not wait for thee
Is that the Ticking of the Clock
Or the Beating of your weakening Heart?
Hear the thunderous Rumbling
