With Strength I Burn

Lyrics for With Strength I Burn

Deep Green Dark Chaos Blinded I run down these paths By heart I know them They lead to the searing cliffs Stout they stand above the water's edge Lifeless And this is my foundation Cold stone Formed only by winds and time How invulnerable Lifeless I have longed to be at one with this Yet, the waters call my name For once I wish to see The entity behind the voice The face of this seduction The beauty of my pain Am I blessed or am I cursed by thy presence? What is my crime? What is my deed? Is this life my redemption? Shall I repent or proceed? I hate my flesh Its dimension poisoned my soul with doubt It made me question The essence of the 'I' Slaves are those of this world Given freedom to lay the chains upon The Master The wolf is no longer free Release the chains and come for me Suddenly, his mournful cries were stunned Out of the cold mist came three enthralling ships Sails torn by many a storm, and the bows adorned By the most fierce gargoyles he'd ever laid eyes upon Yet, the crew they bore... Three times twelve in numbers They stood motionless, wrapped in grey, worn gowns And from behind their shadowed faces the seductive chanting Bidding him on board Without hesitation, he accepted And away they sailed Upon these seas Wherein I drowned so many times I scatter the ashes of destiny Still my flame is in hunger With fire in my heart Shall I greet the shores ahead Though, I know not what will burn In the distance I hear the waves wash over solid ground And in this moment I am struck blind Grant me sight so I can see That which lies ahead of me Cursed be my mortal eyes For dying in this realm of death Hear my call I return to the soaring cliffs They truly shine of strength Even though I nothing learned With strength I burn
