The Orphean Testament Lyrics


It has taken a lifetime for me to reach here

And if you fled for your life just like me

You'd see it through my eyes

If you lived in the shadows like me

It's the break of dawn you fear

And that the skies you know will clear

I thought I was heaven sent

I thought I was heaven sent

I know that you can't hear me

I know that you can't hear me

I was caught in the ripples of a leaving light I must halt

'Cause when I found myself out of hope

I didn't know how to fall

I always thought I could rule it all

We never thought life could harm us

Beneath the ground and into the night

The ceaseless fall

I would travel through light-years to see

Just a glimpse of you again

So the sense of you remain

Heaven's wept tears of God's fell from stars

My words painted the skies in blue

My hymns of sorrow echoes for you

Shadows fell and changed all light

Misfortune of the serpent bite

Colored all we knew into night

The price of a glance unjust

Turns all we know to dust

Life ended right before us

I was caught in the ripples of a leaving light I must halt

'Cause when I found myself out of hope

I didn't know how to fall

I always thought I could rule it all

We never thought life could harm us

Beneath the ground and into the night

The ceaseless fall

Away from light

Set fire to life

Leave the day behind

We've set fire to life

Set fire, set fire

To life

I was caught in the ripples of a leaving light I must halt

'Cause when I found myself out of hope

I didn't know how to fall

I always thought I could rule it all

We never thought life could harm us

Beneath the ground and into the night

The ceaseless fall
