The musical journey into the world of “Where time flows downward…” : https://suno.com/playlist/4242fb7f-99f0-47f6-bab7-7f2f0d751734 ______________________________ [Intro: Full orchestra, lead vocals] I am the one to whom you hearkened Within the silence of the night, Whose thought across your spirit darkened, Whose secret sorrow you had heightened, Whose phantom haunted dream-born light. [Verse/Build 1: lead vocals and powerful background choir] I hold the frost, I keep the vow, The scourge of earth, I reign in woe; I rule of knowledge, pride, and sky, The enemy of stars on high. [LEAD VOCAL ONLY] But look! I fall before your knee. [POWERFUL CHOR] I am the one whom none will love, I am your own, beneath, above; I bring to you a prayer of tears, The first of pains that heart reveres, The first of salt that burns my sight, When you appeared within the night. [LEAD VOCAL ONLY] I grew to hate my deathless state, I cursed my power and my fate. I envied joys of mortal clay, To live as you, I yearn to stay. [Verse/Build 2: lead vocals and powerful background choir] From one same flame our souls were cast, By one same cold, we held them fast. Two ghosts of grief, in silent air, Two breaths of void, a weary pair. [LEAD VOCAL ONLY] Though wandering paths our spirits keep, One root is hidden in the deep: To fire I drift, in dark I trace, The embers save our holy place. [Pre-chorus/Climb: lead vocals and powerful background choir] Though all the world turn into ash, My light will find your path, your flash. What use is this, my vast domain, The boundless dark, the empty reign? [LEAD VOCAL ONLY] A temple wide, yet void of shrine, Unless your soul is wed to mine. [Chorus/Crescendo: Full orchestra, lead vocals and powerful background choir ] I grant this bloom of morning dew, In every drop, the light shines true. The stream of worlds in petals laid, A secret sign that will not fade. [LEAD VOCAL ONLY] It breathes of ice and ancient trust, It shall not rot to formless dust; It guards the fate you cannot know, A wall against the worldly foe. [LEAD VOCAL ONLY] Touch but a leaf — the renewal starts, Or time itself in silence parts. It is an oath beyond reprieve, The knot that fate was forced to weave. These roses are true blue, no fire, no lie, It holds the night back, it keeps us alive. [Outro: Full orchestra, lead vocals and powerful background choir ] I swear by creation’s first bright ray, I swear by the light of the final day, By sin’s deep shame and the pride of gold, By truths of ages, uncontrolled... I let you go, you child of skies, To star-lit realms where shadow dies; [LEAD VOCAL ONLY] May roses guide my path to thee, My queen, My first-freind, My eternity...
