Carpe Noctem - Seize the Night

Live by dreaming

A walkabout in olden slopes

Wake up sleeping

In soil covered in ice

Where will the roses grow

Floating in a haze

Like seaweed to the shore

Who will bring back the silky scents

Of the hills of evermore

Then I woke up at the first break of night

My eyes were the only light

And I shall count these the last days of the sun

And seek comfort in darkness

'Til my lifethread is spun

The colours of black

The music of the night

Throw your voice high into the air full of pride

Find your own road to glory

Use what powers life may give you

Never cease the fight

If you cannot win the day

Seize the night

Only given pleasure; to learn to yearn for it

Only given light; to be blind without it

Only given power; to be scared to use it

Only given mind; to finally lose it

The colours of black

The music of the night

Maybe this is my true realm

In truth I may be blinded by light

If such is indeed my purpose

I shall seize the night

Throw your voice high into the air full of pride

Find your own road to glory

Use what powers life may give you

Never cease the fight

If you cannot win the day

Seize the night
