Flame on Flame

I see the people
like lonely candles
flickering among the moths in flight
I see the people
bent in pointless prayers
murmuring only empty words

But,
my song rises to heaven
like the flames
burning the towers
beyond the screams
of warriors and kings

People seek eternal life
looking inside the vanishing things
Human’s hopes pass by
like fast rivers in their wintry race

This world is always on the run
this world is always on the run

To the sound of the rain
for every wind that will blow
everything will fall
and everything will rise again
flame on flame,
abyss on abyss
everything will rise
and everything will fall again
flame on flame
flame on flame

I see the people
like lonely candles
flickering among the moths in flight
I see the people
bent in pointless prayers
murmuring only empty words

But,
my song rises to heaven
like the flames
burning the towers
beyond the screams
of warriors and kings

To the sound of the rain
for every wind that will blow
everything will fall
and everything will rise again
flame on flame,
abyss on abyss
everything will rise
and everything will fall again
flame on flame
flame on flame
