Burning Within - Brymir

The light is fading

But I seek no shelter

For a wish was born after sunset

And through the gathering shadows

I shall wander, in search of the light

The promise made so long ago

To find that warmth and the glow

Once seen in the dream of a pure heart

Shall lead my soul through the dark…

It grips my heart

I behold the gathering darkness

The beast that slowly stirs

Never yielding, never healing

For a flame within still burns

I know that the shadows will take me But never break me;

for a glimpse of a star

Dying within, free from sin

The last breath still reaching for truth

Shackled in chains of humanity

Shackled in chains of weakness

Shackled in chains of unending hunger

Never torn asunder

But that star once shined through the walls of my heart

I saw the dream that I feared

And the stormwinds blew to be born anew

To die to fight for my life

Fight for my life…

See the countless aeons turn

Bu the flame within still burns
