Castle In The Clouds

Years spent roaming through countless nights

This road before me, the end in sight

It falls around

The fortress walls they crack like brittle bone

Hear the sound magnificent and full of horror

Go live your life outside of the shadows

Be a voice, not an echo

I stand on battered feet

From the ground beneath

I can’t help but think it’s the end

My path ends here

Stained glass falling everywhere

I see it passing through the air

And past the broken shroud I found

An end to my life on the ground

My path ends here

Stained glass falling everywhere

I see it passing through the air

And past the broken shroud I found

An end to my life on the ground

Look around at desolation

See the fall of the creation

A fear was born of insurrection

End of my life or a new start?

Far beyond the moonlight’s reach

I have traveled looking for the fortress in the air

That I was brought to seek

Led by the stone, away from the sea

Finally I have found meaning to my quest

That has always been inside of me

But the fortress walls will crack like brittle bone

They reveal the secret of the stone

Live for life without the fear of death

Glory fades and the grave takes the rest

It falls around

The fortress walls they crack like brittle bone

Hear the sound magnificent and full of horror

Go live your life outside of the shadows

Be a voice, not an echo

I stand on battered feet

From the ground beneath

I can’t help but think it’s the end

I've faced my fears

I've fought my doubts

What I found was

A Castle in the Clouds

I see the walls of the great castle, so strong against the attacks

Crumble before their own dead weight, and spread a web of cracks

There’s more to life than death

And seeing is only believing for the blind

But death and I are the best of friends

We’ve been close so many times

Through forests and plains I have wasted away

Over mountains and glaciers my skin turned to gray

I gave up my home to travel alone

Into the world leaving all I had known

Listen to me

In every trial from far away

I have been with you each step of the way

It falls around

The fortress walls they crack like brittle bone

Hear the sound magnificent and full of horror

Go live your life outside of the shadows

Be a voice, not an echo

I stand on battered feet

From the ground beneath

I can’t help but think it’s the end

It falls around

The fortress walls they crack like brittle bone

Hear the sound magnificent and full of horror

(Years spent roaming)

Go live your life outside of the shadows

(Through countless nights)

Be a voice, not an echo

(This road before me)

I stand on battered feet

(The end in sight)

From the ground beneath

I can’t help but think it’s the end
