Wintertide Songtext

Wintertide Songtext
I am an echo.
A lightless beacon
In a cutting storm
An empty shell withina maze
Straying back and forth
A thought that never vanished
A wound that would never heal.
I have been northbound months and years in hiemal
Winds that cut like spells briskly they enfold
The leafless tree
This will be the end of all.
Endless nights
A barren heart
In dreadful morrow
DEFOLATION
And here I am
In my Wintertide of Faith
What have I become?
I′m a shadow!
A relentless mirage dire circles of reminiscence
So distant now what once did lie for clear at hands
A rout I can't atone
A wound that would never heal.
(Never heal)
Counting hours - years in desolate
Who chose failure - now will have to live with it.
Dreams ignite!
And die...
By the fireside.
And in night-time longing and Wintertide reveries
In a slumber, in a dream, in the glistening white I see
And in night-time longing and Wintertide reveries
In a slumber, in a dream, in the glistening white I see
And in night-time longing and Wintertide reveries
In the welkin, in a breeze, in crystalline euphony
But tonight only clamour and dismay are echoing
Over firn and ice and back they bring
All them voices muttering
Of chagrin and defeat.
I was in reach of orb and crown.
Could be king to the fire!
I could have ruled in purple gown
Now all that′s left is ire!
Believe!
A dismal truth.
In nards that no sun has ever seen
No further tales will ever sever
The hour's growing late for the weak and faint-at-heart
A comfort never earned, deserved
COWARD!
COWARD!
COWARD!
COWARD!
FRAIL.
DECEIT.
DEFEAT.
DECEIT.
FRAIL.
DECEIT.
DEFEAT.

FRAIL. DEFEAT. FRAIL. DECEIT. FRAIL. DECEIT. FRAIL.
DEFEAT.
DECEIT...
In my woe
A world aglow
Let go of me...
Dreams ignite
And then they die
Let go of me...
Forever and a day
Right here...
This will be the end of you.
A feather to the four winds
A sparrow to the sun.
In my woe
A world aglow
Let go of me.
Let go of me...
Dreams ignite
And then they die
Let go of me...
Let go of me.
LET GO OF ME!
And in night-time longing and Wintertide reveries
In a slumber, in a dream, in the glistening white I see
And in night-time longing and Wintertide reveries
In the welkin, in a breeze, in crystalline euphony
And in night-time longing and Wintertide reveries
In the welkin, in a breeze, in crystalline euphony
Whenever I close my eyes
And stare into the sun
Whenever in memories
Through golden fields we run
In every waking sleep
In every time of need
Whenever the soul will weep
Carry on...
Whenever I close my eyes
And stare into the sun
Whenever in memories
Through golden fields we run
In every waking sleep
In every time of need
Whenever the soul will weep
CARRY ON!
HERE IN MY WINTERTIDE
HERE IN MY WINTERTIDE
OF FAITH.
HERE IN MY WINTERTIDE
HERE IN MY WINTERTIDE
