By the Banks Songtext
von Wobbler

By the banks of this river wide, I stand silent and unversed
Muddy waters from a violent tide, five snakes among the reeds immersed

This stream is the daughter of my dreams
She is the silver thread that binds the seams
Oh, stream from my darkest well
You are the visions from within my shell

In the footsteps of Persephone, I have sought to find a way
Searching for my queens epiphany,
Through the caves and to the light of day

In my wake, it is chasing mе, through these halls of blood and stone
A lightеd torch in my hand, my consciousness illuminates the throne

Oh, dream from my darkest well
You are the visions from within my shell


I seek your council, wisest Philemon can you tell me where to go?
To leave, to escape, across the horizon bright
Enter into another life
Dear Salome, will you comfort me?
Stay with me, and grant me clarity
To rise and to fall, it summons us all

Silver snake, brilliant movement from another world deep underground
Mountains shake, as your body pour the silver seeds upon the ground
Awakened, by the sound of dragons roaring from an ancient keep
Portals, open up and lets the light flow down into the deep

Wanna be, gonna be all

Awaited, I am greeted in the depths beneath the River Styx
Elated, I am reseeded through the knowledge of hypostasis

Oh, my Persephone, your path has led me free
Your light is ever bright, illuminates our fright

A maze from dusk till dawn
It never stops, even if the final clever curtain drops
Life goes on, in every form facing riddles from whence we′re torn
Let me steal another kiss, before I reconcile with bliss

This light it is my consciousness, the only light that I caress
Luminous from east to west
The well of life flows from my soul, opened are the doors of gold
I am the snake, the beast of old
