Between Scylla and Charybdis Songtext
von Mithras

It will take forever
For us to meet again
If you even live - how could you know?
The door we used, so casually
That ancient gateway
Bridging vast spaces between which
Light itself had barely travelled
That great eye
Would blink, flare, close forever
Fading from our existence


There was no time, no recourse
Horror encroached upon the system you were in
Abandon you to save us all
Between Scylla and Charybdis

I mourn for you - but more I mourn for me
For it was me who closed the gate
With you on the other side
So how can I live
When you are gone
Fallen into memory
Your path ends - mine stretches on
I journey on alone

Now a solitary figure
