Elvenking - Disappearing Sands Lyrics
At dawn the ships arrived, they sailedthrough seas and foreign skiesTo bring another age in landsthat needed no constraintsBy the sign of the fire,all pagan gods were bleedingTo dispossess thousands yearsof wisdom and beliefs, ohThink for a moment, fall astrayFirst step on sand, meant the lastof their old life("now it's done, all is gone"), so pure,With dignity all was carried on"What's this fighting for?""Disappearing sands, familiar voicesEverytime I stare at the night inside usAll the places I cherish darkenPast memories are the onlytrue consolationFor what my eyes are forced to see"The tears in her eyes were like raincome from the gloomiest cloudPushed back from their own homes,the germ of hate seized the heartIn a clear warm spring day,his spirit left the bodyAlone she stood while the ravensflew away from ruins, oh"Far till sky unites with earth I'll hide youThey cannot dig what's inside of usFar till sky unites with earth I'll hide youThey cannot dig what's inside of us""My life for you, despair on us,despair on us"[Solos: Jarpen / Aydan]Think for a moment, fall astrayFirst step on sand, meant the lastof their old life("now it's done, all is gone"), so pure,With dignity all was carried on"What's this fighting for?""Disappearing sands, familiar voicesEverytime I stare at the night inside usAll the places I cherish darkenPast memories are the onlytrue consolationFor what my eyes are forced to see"
