Lyrics
Charon
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.
Through me you pass - just take my hand
The ferryman whispers my name
The course has been set - lord of the damned
To the banks, over river of pain
We rise and fall - with the tide
On through the gates, where shadows await
See the glimmer of gold in his eye
"The bridges have been burned - never to return"
Sail away - on the winds of charon
Take me to the distant shore
Lead the way - on winds of charon
By the gods, I can't ignore
The sight of his face - shrouded in death's cold embrace
Through me you pass - to the lacrymose plains
Though my passage comes with a price
A sky without stars is all that remains
To the shores made of fire and ice
We rise and fall - with the tide
Just say the word - cause there's no return
To the coast where the true power lies
"The bridges have been burned - never to return"
Sail away - on the winds of charon
Take me to the distant shore
Lead the way - on winds of charon
By the gods, I can't ignore
The sight of his face - shrouded in death's cold embrace
