The Whisper of the Ages

twilight has fallen

so deep like a hurricane's eye

the empire's predictions

came falling from the sky

the voices keep calling

they're speaking of fate to be sealed

the riddles and rhymes

of existence keep concealed

the shrine to behold

and not their hearts unfold

for a lifetime

faithfully following leaders they adore

and in their sleep their last dreams fade away

the whisper of the ages coming by to stay

to dream those dreams away

gone by forevermore

into the never they are leaving

whispers lead astray

to dream those dreams away

the symbols of power

are melting the ice we are in

the elegies written in candlelight begin

the dices are rolling

into a direction unknown

the gods they are fearing

have come to take the throne

the phoenix will rise

tearing off his disguise

he is flying

into the sun of a million dreams away

(2x):

and in their sleep their last dreams fade away

the whisper of the ages coming by to stay

to dream those dreams away

gone by forevermore

into the never they are leaving

whispers lead astray

to dream those dreams away
