Paroles de And So Opens The Earth (Ash Memory Part I)

After years of hiding in the dark A sound is heard and the shadow is pulled apart Just a whisper, just a fading song A prey to capture before its voice is gone I've scorched this land with the blood of my past So nothing left breathing is ever able to last I will drop all the riches I hold To seek the candle that lights in the winter's cold From the woods you crawled a life ago Here you swore you'd stay The mountain pass is marked with the very same stone But the leaves have fallen, the trail is overgrown I will forge ahead with the strength that I steal From a false remembrance, from a time that wasn't real Look back home before you go It will soon be lost And only when the last memory has burned Will I believe a lesson has been learned In the ashes I'll trace a map to guide me far Not knowing that life still flows Its soul becomes a scar And if we stand Choice laughs in our face So we will go And trust that something's changed So the last wound mends So the earth opens
