Tears for the Dead Life Songtext
von Bear McCreary

It′s the end of an era
It's the end of an old age
And I cannot find my breath at all
In a dream I could fly through
The echoes of past lives
As I watched each one succumb to death

Tears for the dead life
Heart cry for the new day
As the old falls down
And the new rises up

Through time and space
Like the trees of a forest
Growing through the remains of
Fallen kingdoms and empires
Bringing forth a new beauty
And a newfound potential
Yielding newfound tongues of sight
And soul and heart and mind


Tears for the dead life
Heart cry for the new day
As the old falls down
And the new rises up

To reclaim the name of
The power they gave away
Walking through the unknown
Filled with light and awe
And by the tears of our darkness
We shall water the flowers
Growing through the cracks
Of clay made stronger
By the flames of loss and pain and time

Tears for the dead life
Heart cry for the new day
As the old falls down
And the new rises up

(As the old falls down)
And the new rises up
(As the old falls down)


(As the new rises up)
(And the old falls down)
(As the new rises up)
(And the old falls down)

Tears for the dead life
Fall away
Forever fall away
(As the new rises up)
Falling tears
Fall like rain
(And the old falls down)
Falling down
Fall away from me
(As the new rises up)
(And the old falls down)

(As the new rises up)
(And the old falls down)
