Gallows Bird Songtext
von Trees of Eternity

A red sun on the horizon
Marks the hour of your call

Somber is the one whose eyes are still veiled
Watching your departure
As mine, watch you arrive

Your hands are tied
Your mask applied
The mark of shame
You wear to all eyes

No glimpse of light
Can touch your mind
So black inside
As you face your crime

Dreams are unable to come

With you on this journey that′s just begun

Not a sigh
As your noose is tied
Is it pride
Or are you frozen inside?


Fear is unable to come

With you on this journey that's just begun

How can I make peace with my path
When life has come to this?
Chased by shadow of my past
Eclipsed by what lies ahead

As the last ray of hope is lost
Fight and resistance
Nothing remains to hold
Me to this existence

If the song of the gallows bird
Is the messenger between worlds
Deliver me from a bitter past
So I may find rest at last

(Why?)
(Why?)
(Why?)
(Why?)


Hear the blackbird′s song
A fallen man's beacon
The sunrise paints your eyes
Rays of light chase away the night

The ships have come ashore
Parting the storm
The tide bears all your nightmares
Sails of white come to take you home

As I bear you on board
A circle is formed
Horizon to horizon
Life begins where a journey ends
