Colosseum (FI) - On the Strand of Nightmares lyrics

Towers stand tall reaching the grey skies Seen the weight of the years untouchable Sleeping waters returned you from their depths On the strand of nightmares you've become rotten flesh Air has become a poison making our lungs to bleed Choking to our own wishes to flee Dreaming no more Once you thought you've seen all the world Thought you'd conquer the supremacy of your sanity Without single drop of sorrow you left from here Ending your way - ending your days You never could achieve being part of humanity You never saw a beauty in all the laughter and joy Like unfinished novel you wasted all your ambitions Sold your blackened soul and got nothing back Nothing... Pictures lie torn and loss is perpetual Mirrors lie broken and wounds will never heal There will be no grave for your memory All the struggle was worth nothing at all There will be nothing for you in all eternity The memory of all that was meant to be worth cherishing Will soon fade away like a dying flame The flame that was already stillborn in its birth All you thought as noble and great Has long gone and entered its grave The storm will come and hurl us all to flames Towers still stand invulnerable and gazing to vast horizon Enter the collective brain - Enter the universal truth See the chaos and macrocosmic lunacy Written beyond the timeless stars Written beyond the perception of mind
