Long Forgotten Lyrics


I am the faint mist which covers the fields at dawn

I am the lonely grey dust on the moon

I am the cold northern wind, embracing your flesh

I am the elements you don't know exist

The soil which covers the coffin

The lonely grave among the plains

The dead calm, stopping the wind

The old oak tree content in solitude

I am part of a dead star long forgotten

Can't you taste the starlight in the sky?

Can't you hear the dim blue light of neptune?

Can't you smell the atoms of your skin?

Can you taste history, where we've been?

Never again to forget the paths we've walked

Never again to revel in the shadows of ignorance

Never again to look at myself in this world the same

But for once I'll know from which I came

The eclipse which covers the sun

The bleak light on lonely dark nights

The cold stone, hidden in the shadows

I am the dead star long forgotten
