Blacksong

I'm gonna fight
 Even though my life is burning
 Everything's gonna be all right
 Even if there's no returning
 In silence I'm watching
 I feel the world around
 So restless staring deeper in the night
 Like a far away sun when the fire is low
 Like a fading star I'm burning out in the cold
 Crying in my blacksong
 I'm lonely - Aging fast down the road
 Only in my dreams I'm hiding
 Till I'm buried naked and old
 I'm waiting... watching
 I see the world around
 Forever reaching deeper for the light
 Like a faraway sun when the fire is low
 I'm a fading star burning out in the cold
 And I'm crying out my blacksong
 Distant kingdoms like sparks on the sky
 So many visions they come to you and I
 The shine of the future gives no hint of peace
 For this torn world there can be no release
 Hold on... and all that is beautiful dies
 Hold on... I'm standing here asking you why
 Hold on... I must believe to rise in the blaze
 But I'm tired in me running blind in the haze
 Hold on... and everything powerful fades
 Hold on... all that is young will age
 Hold on... touched by evil darker than coil
 No salvation for the warrior soul
 But I'll keep on fighting... coming home... oh yeah
 Crying in my blacksong
 In a faraway sun when the fire is low
 Just a glowing star fading out in the cold
 Dying with my blacksong
 Black... black... turning black
 Crying in my blacksong
 Crying in my blacksong
