Leave the Light Behind Songtext
von Temple of Void

From this shore your journey awaits
A million souls from different fates
A caravan but for a fee
Or banished to roam for centuries

One coin of silver within my grasp
To lead you through this treacherous path
The rivers of death we′ll cross with grace
Final deliverance, your resting place

Your face is different, but we've met before
In the end it′s all the same
I've made this voyage so many times
I can leave the light behind


A torch through the fog can light the way
Revealing the specters who could not pay
Phantasmally drifting throughout time
With mournful screams that haunt my mind

Crack of the oar pushes the wake
Parting the black, revealing below
Monstrosities of the river deep
And sinners who drowned in this watery keep

Your face is different, but we've met before
In the end it′s all the same
I′ve made this voyage so many times
I can leave the light behind

Do you dare to look over the edge?
I've looked and accept what I am

Death has been good to me

You may find your reflection
Looks right at home
