Labyrinth of time... Mine alone for now and ever more (I'm all alone...) ...And I flew Above sepulchral monoliths Nebulously dancing beneath the dew (Of morning, in ye twilightland of old) Abiding teardrops borne by thorns Thine fragments I twine true (In mourning, stream adorned in rage untold) ...Flow adorned in rage untold Eternal - forever - more And they'll forever grow And hold in heart what springs anew From the shadowsglades unwitnessed Which light the flames From deep within where we all grew ...Everlasting ember-glow Labyrinth of Time In harmony confined Thus the dark heat from Beyond the stars Engulfed a world of fear still robed in ice A throne in fire dies... Pulsating through the skies He who wore the gown Shall drown the "Reich of tears" in cries Enthroned in fire dies... A kingdom's last demise And I know... The ardent hearth midst life and death Won't end my journey morrowless (I won't laugh in mirth all sorrowless) Come, fly afloat on a wave of emotions Of crestfallen scorn Oh, this my whirlwind of darkness A tide I once lulled but alas now withdrawn Now...hand in hand with sorrow Towards the still, perpetual seas Into the tranquil depths of solitude In bliss my spirit flees Through the wind I will go To my twilightland, alone Where sanctuary is mine Within my throneworld, my labyrinth of time And he who is the God Of an infinite shape and faces Ever weaving fates of life Upon the pattern of his traces In the Golden Dawn of Winter He'll stand risen from the night In serenity all solemn Clad in moonlight's milky white Through the wind I will go To my twilightland, alone Where sanctuary is mine Within the hands of this labyrinth of time Labyrinth of time... Eternal - forever - more Time...infinity of mind Divinity of life Labyrinth of time In harmony confined Burn - upon my Might - by my Command - into the fire Your throne of fire fell... Bestowed upon your Hell Burnt shall be your "Might", and your Command shan't drown my fire (...My Faeryland Forgotten) ...Mine alone for now and ever more
