lyrics

This is the act of dying.
Unrest, I'm finally settling.
Plans are coming into sight.
The dreamer’s dream showed me this life.

I’m ready for the dust,
For the blood and soil.
Soon I’ll turn to ash
In the earth we squandered.

The sun is setting now,
But you will see another.
You will ride into the light.
You will ride into the light.
You will set aside the night.

Soon, I’ll close my chapter, and dream of the others.
It starts with you, the prophetic, bloodied dreamer.
Next, a lover, with the mind of a knower.
Then, out from icy stone walls, congregations gather.
Even further, a broken warrior, with you as their savior.
Then a denier, whose poison will turn to honey.

All will face a failure, with glass as a sceptre.
And ancient waves, in all their wonder.
Lastly, flames, with death as their spectre.
In the end, all roads lead to you,
and you, your path is towards the sun.
In the end, all roads lead to you,
and you, your path is towards the sun.
