Compos Mentis - Tale Of The Shadow lyrics

A journey through the land of the dead and hollow Towards the radiance where treasure is dug Down through the valley of the shallow Escaping silently from the forest's fog My precious shadow, it might now seem That time has come to revive your flame The wilderness' daze has blurred your gleam But I'll obey the calling and surrender to the game Expand the narrow horizon with streams of wine Before the milk will strengthen my sorrows I seek for what was always mine The rise and fall of a kingdom's prime Brief visions of a flag that time has torn Mountain peaks lend voice to the wind Angel choir cries, enticingly they sing As I reach for the dawn in sin Forgive this obsession and the forging of wings Humility is blessed with nothing but scorn To the piercing sound of the hollow horn True will dares d**h without tears The rise and fall of a kingdom's prime Brief visions of a flag that time has torn Towards the beautiful view with the immense roar Prayers under the azure emptiness of time
