lyrics

And lo, What I saw cannot be told.
Strange shades emerging from the mist.
Floating over ethereal raging twists.
In a halo of mysticism and cold.
From the inner forest they came, silently numb,
Imbued in heavy armours and spears up high.
Once more, marching under the dark night sky
As a procession leaded by the sound of drums.

It was at midnight, the late darkest hour,
When awaking from its dream, a raven begun to caw
Following the march, with a black banner in the claw,
An ancestral icon filled with spectral power.
Then, like a psalm some words were said,
Proudly, with a voice that was fearsome
"For ages we had waited, searching for wisdom:
Now we know the paths of the living and the dead".

As they reach my side I felt the centuries upon me.
My heart turned ice and elder, emitting no sound.
Trembling and pale, not believing what I found:
Immortality before me, now free to learn and see.

I am one more of them, for eternity we will march together
Not dead but not living, keeping the secrets of the mist forever...
