Plague of Butterflies: Losing the Sunsets - Plague of Butterflies - Evael 10:00

Cold was the air that the evening wind brought
 Silent and so quiet were the woods
 On the eve of that night
 Don't know what I stayed there for so long,
 So long that I could hear that voice
 The whisper we all avoid
 Sound from within, the quiet truth
 I felt my blood slowly turning cold
 Turning cold from waiting
 Hours I spent there awaiting
 Hoping for someone to come
 To silent the voice that felt like thunder
 Evael is the light, the white light
 In the chill of my world, she is the one
 She brings the butterflies, pure light
 When ever she comes by
 The darkness steps aside
 But I felt my blood turn cold
 Hours I spent there awaiting
 Watching the light fading
 You're losing the sunsets, you will never get them back
 The days you spend in loneliness are seconds in shades of black
 Winter was cold, but summer is even colder
 Nights have been longer, they have made me much older
 You're losing the sunsets, you will never get them back
 Every night you spend in loneliness are years in shades of black
 Years pass, but has time stopped on me?
 Morning always arises with vaster pain
 And then it is sunset again
 We weep the winds for your loneliness
 Of broken dreams for the love you had
 But now she walks forever lost in gray and woe
 She's not forgiven, she's the one for winter to own
 Not yours, old man, never again...
 Silent people walking by
 They are leaving, again someone is living
 They don't seem to be well
 Quiet death on their faces
 Buried a few of them today
 The children and the old by the road
 I could give them shelter but they decide to go...
 Village is empty, dead, cold, empty
 Only frozen bodies greet my arrival
 Tortured by the plague, a ghost town
 But her face I could not find
 I searched for her in the woods again
 And kept a light on my window, for anyone to come
 But when even the trail of dead ended by the road
 I gave up waiting, hoping
 In this kingdom of my loneliness
 On this throne of my thoughts
 Maybe I'm the old one, sheltered by these woods
 And when I lay my body to rest
 I watch the ballet of shadows
 Dancing through the flame of a candle
 Taking me to sleep...
 But the night trembled my heart
 For black wings moved upon me
 Hoping for my time to come
 I closed my eyes and took a deep breath
 But like every night before, death did not come
 The wings, they moved and danced
 As a butterfly, they kept dancing
 Dancing around my candle
 But why are you here when Evael is lost still?
 The morning came with its cold caress
 I curse your light for waking me again
 The candle burnt down, and the burnt wings beside
 Is this a sign of Evael, I arise
 I opened my window, painted by thick ice
 Took a deep breath and whispered her name in the air
 The freezing summer burned my lungs again
 As I walked through the snow
 Looked deeper into the woods
 And the trees waved their heads in sorrow
 Cold, oh so cold is this air that the night brought
 Silent, too quiet are the woods in the eve of this night
 Once again I lit the candle on my window
 And waited for the sleep...
 Evael, my dream has been so alive
 And this plague has cleansed this world for us
 So please, release me now
 Sink deeper to your loneliness
 And you will lead her to your grave
 She's lost in gloomy light
 Still trying to hold her flame
 You're losing the sunsets and you will never get them back
 This life you spend in loneliness is forever in shades of black
 Wake up, old man, let it go, let it go...
 Was it a weak sound on my door that woke me up
 Or the trees sheltering me from the night?
 I kept my eyes closed but still felt the light
 And the room was filled by butterflies
 I rose with my heart beating
 For the weak hope of the midnight's hour I prayed
 And opened my door to the winter night
 And she fell...
 She fell to my arms
 In tears I carried her
 And laid her down to sleep
 Her eyes frozen from the thousand nights alone
 She trembled and whispered
 "I was lost in the woods
 And the trees kept me away from you
 For I brought the plague with them
 With the butterflies"
 Hush now and let it go
 Close your eyes now
 And we drift away, together away from the pain
 Deep in this sheltering night, to a forgiving dream
 Until one minute past midnight, the room was filled
 Filled only with butterflies
