Lyrics
Chrysalids
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Vessel of antique splendour
was ploughing the ocean safely
Nobody could foresee-what-sea
already chose
Once calm
turned so high,
and storm meant
tragedy.
Dark sky, heavy rain, a sudden flash
Dark sky, heavy rain, a sudden flash
Such a ray made them conscious of their own end
Sealed amphora preserving Chrysalids fell to pieces
More and more, deep into the reign of
Amphitrite
Dark sky, heavy rain, a sudden flash:
Dark sky, heavy rain, a sudden flash
Deceitful confidence, in the dark about their fate
Birth would have been Death anyhow
Yet the sea already chose for them
The amphora than disclosed, Chrysalids so free
Turned into the abyss' awful keepers
Free and alive, yet annihilated by Her will
Driven by primordial instincts
Free and alive, yet annihilated by Her will
Driven by primordial instincts
a new destiny.
Their natural element is now a filtering light - The danger, their own breath
By now they couldn't even fly
What just one day could survive,
Forever will last
