lyrics

Frosts breath on silent fields
Sleeping gods of river and oak

A moment suspended in time
reflected in the heart of the mountain

Deep sigh of hallowed slumber
Shake the sleep from the eyes of the world

A celestial grave I long to return to
Reflected in the heart of the mountain


A vision
From the depths of my soul
A sacred song of twilight to call the spirits home
Forgotten
Like the voice of the wind
The ever flowing echos
Of eternity within

Chorus 1:
Born of dust and ash
Reflected in the stars
Ancient blood of mountains
The memories of a thousand lives

A calling
From the eye of the world
To make the sacred bind
And give myself to her
A burden
Of the highest honor bared
To walk the lonely road
Each step an earthen prayer


Chorus 2:
Born of dust and ash
Reflected in the sky
To walk a sacred path
To bare the gift of sight

Soaring ever higher
Across the plains of time
The birth and death of a thousand worlds
Like shifting sand in moonlit tides

Repeat chorus 1

A glimpse through the cracks of eternity
To the sacred depths of life
The dust of a thousand planets
Burns within our minds

Repeat chorus 2

The day I die
Bury me among the stars
And worship my memory
As the warm autumn wind
