EPHEMERALD LYRICS

1. Grand Creation


I have been sculpting the finest of forms
For the whole of the world to see, one day
I have been writing a monumental piece
For the whole of the world to see, one day

But all the blood and sweat and tears
Through these years
Have formed a barrier of fear

You have been waiting for too long, you think
There's been a minor setbacks, I know
You need to try to see things through my eyes
There's no need to read between the lines

This grand creation will stand the test of time
No room for failure, no chance for a slightest flaw
The fine line between this persistence and vanity
Will guide me either to glory or to ungrateful grave

But all the blood and sweat and tears
Through these years
Have formed a barrier of fear
You see, here and there we're not quite there
Just one more year, or two or three
I swear

Oh, how it's flawless in my head
Almost too much to bear
This world could only ruin
And stain its perfection

This grand creation will stand the test of time
No room for failure, no chance for a slightest flaw
The fine line between this persistence and vanity
Will guide me either to glory or to ungrateful grave

Oh, how it's flawless in my head
Almost too much to bear
This world could only ruin
And stain its perfection


2. I Bear Fire


Long had the rains been pouring down
Humming the songs of ice
Strong had the current become
Before I dared perceive its might

So long had I tried to keep my flame aligned
That its meaning was lost
Never was I able to foresee
How much these years would weigh on me

The longer I wait, the more I will repent
The brighter I burn, the more the tide will turn

I bear fire in me and it ought to breathe the air
For far too long I've been smothering all I would need to feel alive

Many moons ahead, many roads to follow
The past is gone, its words are hollow
And I know my tale shall not be solely one of sorrow

I bear fire in me and it ought to breathe the air
For far too long I've been smothering all I would need to feel alive
I bear fire in me – now arise!
The shade of yesteryears shall fade away – arise!

Fire – melt the ice that's binding me
Fire, burn – light the way and set me free
For one may never know
What will arrive upon the morrow
My remaining days are not
For anyone else to borrow

I bear fire in me and it ought to breathe the air
For far too long I've been smothering all I would need to feel alive
I bear fire in me – now arise!
The shade of yesteryears shall fade away – arise!


3. Servant


I'm here whenever you need guidance
Here I am, waiting in bitter silence
Dwelling inside these walls forever
For you to call or neglect altogether

I freeze whenever I sense your presence
Bereft of hope, longing for heavens
Praying out loud for your forgiveness
For only darkness you let me witness

I am waking from my dream of shame I fell
I am taking back the voice I once had
I am breaking down the walls of hate I built
I am servant of guilt no more

Take a look inside and see
I'm not the broken soul
You know me for
Shivering from the thought
Of standing my ground for once
Always taking a bullet
For those who are lost
Suffering on behalf
Of others no matter the cost
Worrying over opinions
I may have crossed

You are weaker, sinking deeper
And now I see behind your smoke and mirrors

I am waking from my dream of shame I fell
I am taking back the voice I once had
I am breaking down the walls of hate I built
I am servant of guilt

I am waking from my dream of shame I fell
I am taking back the voice I once had
I am breaking down the walls of hate I built
I am servant of guilt no more


4. Lost


Escaping the truth one cannot justify
Breathing in the air that cannot fill the lungs
Slaying the same demons night after night
Creating a world of lies just to survive

Ending all of the days in bitter cries
Desiring to find a cause that never dies
Leaving deeper meanings behind to rot
Longing for a second shot, again

These empty rooms, these empty walls
A reminder of all I forestalled
And yet this mouth remains shut
The cycle untouched and the glimmer of hope lost

If only I could have stayed
As strong all along
As I have always known I can be
And avoided all of this misery

And I know I should be
Redeeming the fragments of a broken soul
Finding out the things one can control
Bending the dour mind under command
Rewriting the aversive chapters with firm hand

Ending all of the days in bitter cries
Desiring to find a cause that never dies
Leaving deeper meanings behind to rot
Longing for a second shot, again

These empty rooms, these empty walls
A reminder of all I forestalled
And yet this mouth remains shut
The cycle untouched and the glimmer of hope lost


5. All There Is


All there is
And all there ever was
The eternal now
And the morrow untold

And one stares out the door standing still
The greater the unknown
The tighter we hold on to the past

All there is
And all there ever was
A flickering light
In the dead of the night

And one stares out the door forevermore
The greater the unknown
The tighter we hold on to the past

And one walks out the door nevermore
For all that is real
Feels distant and vain
Through the glass of the past


6. Reborn


I've obtained an insight
Into a tale off the beaten path
Time to let go and have an ending
For this chapter I have fulfilled

As the rays of dawn now greet the moor
And light the world anew
Farewell the life of wistful lines
I leave behind as I am reborn

But the last step to be taken
Is harder than all the rest combined
And the first day on the road
Towards the light the darkest of them all

As the rays of dawn now greet the moor
And light the world anew
Farewell the life of wistful lines
I leave behind as I am reborn


7. No Fall Is Too Deep


Here we are under a young sky
As dismal as the former
In the soil this sour
Nothing good shall ever grow
Here I thought a new beginning
Would set me free from sorrow
Knowledge in all its power
Has brought me to my knees to weep

I've been weak and pathetic
And sinking for years
In the mires of my mind
But if I heal and overcome this
No fall is too deep anymore

To stand up and start anew
To find a light at the darkest hour
I see my worth in this entirety
As the one who lives for the truth

Am I the only one who sees right through them all
All the little lies and pretentious acting
Or is it just wrong to long for a bit more
Or am I just a martyr who doesn't know when to fall

No fall is too deep

To stand up and start anew
To find a light at the darkest hour
I see my worth in this entirety
As the one who lives for the truth
I know that my time will come
And all this grief shall be cast
Back where it came from


8. Till the Sea Swallows Us Whole


As life consumes, grief renews

Wide and deep is the stream we row down
Worn the creaking oar in our hands
Great the burden we drag behind us
Frail the one at the end of his rope

All we see are the bygone days drifting
Further away, despite us resisting
To accept there is nothing we hold as dear
As everything we are doomed to grieve

And we will drown if we don't
Soon let go of that anchor of hope
We tend to hold on to

For ruthless is the wind
Wayward the waves it brings
Here we shall float in a state of decay
Till the sea swallows us whole

As life consumes, grief renews
For better or worse

All we see is the light of day fading
Slowly away, despite us refusing
To acknowledge there's much unsaid, undone
As brief is the time under the sun

And we will drown if we don't
Soon let go of that anchor of hope
We tend to hold on to

For ruthless is the wind
Wayward the waves it brings
Here we shall float in a state of decay
Till the sea swallows us whole


9. Into the Endless


Between the glimpses of hope
Beneath the serene surface
Hanging over the moments of bliss
Hunting down all misfortune I missed

Before the sleep's warm embrace
Prior the break of the dawn
Following every step in my way
Bereaving the life of my day

Into the endless vortex of thoughts I fall
Never shall I yield
Yet never shall it let my mind roam free

Between the glimpses of hope
Beneath the serene surface
Before the sleep's warm embrace
Prior the break of the dawn

The voices I hear
The visions I witness
All in the hands of the ruler
I love and detest
The faces I've seen
The stories I possess
All in the hands of the ruler
I fear and try to suppress

Leave, let me be in peace
Leave, somewhere out of reach
Leave, put my mind at ease
Please leave, leave me be

Into the endless vortex of thoughts I fall
Never shall I yield
Yet never shall it let my mind roam free

Far from this endless absence of joy I crawl
Never to return
Yet never shall it let me be free for long
