Threatening Shadows Songtext
von Stiriah

Once lifeless, barren and empty, a world
Carved by deep wounds of time
Blood like a river of life flows from the
Deep wounds into the sea of scars

Deep in the dark ice
Crouching in the depths of consciousness
I long to step through the heights
Rise above and live forever
Want to reach for the stars
Want to strive for ecstacy
For the power that redeems me


A dawn after darkest nights
The sun mother stains the firmament
And threatening shadows vanish
Evolution proceeds
A halo upon everything
Life grows with faint hope
Where former spirits ruled
In the pale gray sea of scars
I get enchained by darkness

I sink in bitterness
I suffer endless torments
I end this dream
From then on I walk further and faster
Pain and tears mark my path in the wind
Time as a silent companion
Carrying chaos and death in the luggage
I rampage restlessly
Through this world until the sun sets

Want to reach for the stars
Reach for the light that fills me
Want to strive for ecstasy
Strive for the power that redeems me
Want to be free and live forever
I reach for the stars
Grab the light that fills me golden ecstasy in my hands
And I am filled with power
Reach for nothing and will be freed forever
