Lyrics
Descent of the Flames
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.
Like the joining of two mighty seas
The star stream of darkness meets
The paleness of dawn
Shattering the backbone of night
From the horizon and across the skies
Brilliant flames first red
Climb slowly to the white heat,
Lucent slendor arcs westward
The shadows cast betrays,
As if borne by four winds
Overtaking, Overtaking, Inexorable
The descent of flames,
The rise of calm twilight,
As the night smothers the day....
