Coronach - Eternal Tears Of Sorrow

Alone with the questions

An outcast for many years

He has seen those marble archways

And the avenue of crimson tears

Now shadows are staring at him

But he turns his face away

They remind him of his true self

Gone with the first winter day

Yesterday’s like a dream

And tomorrow’s like a mirage

When’s the time to get eternal rest?

When’s the endless roaming over?

His frequent groans were only

Silent whispers in the whirlwind

He ended up in this timeless race

Just for his father’s sins

On his father’s grave he swore:

«I'll accomplish your endless task»

But his wings were burnt by the sunlight

And his mirth hiding behind the mask

Then he heard the stentorian noise

Beyond the mountains

The ancient coronach of flora and fauna

He remembered an old gnostic tale

Of the coruscating crystal of tranquility

He had travelled through time

Seen the runes of the light and the dark

He found the answer to his questions

«How to free his chained heart»

The eternal one can finally rest

He is one of the mortals now

The beauty of the crystal glowing

And his eyes shining with it, somehow
