Landscapes..
Entrance my mind with thoughts of ancient times
I wonder..
Did they walk this path?

Open seas..
An endless horizon they seem
I wonder..
Where did they go?

Nightsky
Source of light and dark
I wonder..
Did they comprehend?

Did they comprehend?
Did they comprehend?
Did they comprehend?
Did they comprehend?

Seasons running through my veins
Like snow melting on my skin
They crawl beyond my flesh
And gasp my yearning soul

Alas!
The force of divinity
What caused its end?
What caused this?

What caused its end?
What caused its end?
What caused its end?
Oh... the end

I drown in thoughts
Yet, answers have abandoned this place
Long ago
Blood runs cold from my arm..

Another one is now to die
Is he the last to see
The graceful entity of nature?
Is he the last to have his heart and soul
Nailed to her embrace?

He passes on..
