Shards of Silver Fade Lyrics


Time is short, all the eons, paused

Here rides the winter with stellar fall

Hide this soul from the morning’s dawn

A birth of darkness, in shadows crawl

Find this home for a wicked crone

And let her summon the ancient’s form

Dried, like bones, in the soil grown

A lifeless blossom, it glistens no more

And the ice rains

Shards of solar glass

Stabbing the earth raw

It perishes in the storm

This is now the end

The plagues will begin

Come infinity

Die inside of me

View the astral plain

The light has been detained

Come eternity come and die with me

And you cannot pretend

That you foretold the end

Come infinity

Die inside of me

Your gods will not defend

The lies that you have bled

Come eternity

Come and die with me

So if this is the end

No hero will be sent

Come infinity

Die inside of me

Your god is not your friend

No saviour will descend

Come eternity

Come and die with me

I hear whispers, I hear calls

I see a figure old, and deformed

He guides his hand

And offers a reprieve

From this frozen wasteland

Is seeing to believe?

The firmament fell

And order deceased

But a calming presence

Has offered a release

Death is no stranger

Mounted on his stead

The pitch black of darkness

Again seems in reach

Though one star will die and freeze

Another sphere awaits me

And finally is welcoming

So many die, yet few are willing

To give up their spirit

And finally be free

Awakening to a plain

Of silent waters

And swirling silver streams

Falling stars, like shards of glass

And waves of faint glowing stellar rays

Bewitching me, the astral sea

And her voice, slowly echoing

The solar streams meandering

Like her voice, prancing playfully
