Seven Sirens and A Silver Tear

music by Sirenia

(0:17)
A star falls in the night
Its light will fade and die
The awakening of ancient tales
Behold in the darkest seas and oceans

(0:53)
The beauty is free from stones again
And oblivion will remember them once more

(1:12)
Time crossovers past and present
The moment the sirens froze died

(1:29)
So beautiful their hymn
So frail their calling
So deceiving their love
So forlorn their kiss

(2:05)
Beware the Medusa’s eyes, don’t look
With them they want to take you
Forever to sail on unknown seas
Forever to be their lover in death

(2:41)
The black seas turn blue
The sky breaks the silence
Something is moving
Faster in the clouds
The sirens swim to hide
Silver tears they cry
How the long for one more night

(2:50)
Sun is rising
Red and hot
(2:59)
The spell will break
They must return
To a myth
Seven loves
Are taken away
Sailor’s hope
(3:26)
The spell is breaking by day
Seven Sirens must return to stone

(3:35)
Primo sole erimus inferi

(4:09)
Another night they will wait
To sing their sirenia song
Enchanting, beautiful
Lost in stone, forever more, they’ll come

Aeternus: In Perpetual Quest # 2

Walking with humans without destination
Beyond emotions and thoughts a salvation
Life scared me away

And they believe I’m a spirit

Ghost of the past I couldn’t change
Come to remind me I have no power
Upon the things that should leave me weak

Voiceless they ask me for answers
When I’m flooded with questions
Their eyes of nostalgia taught me
The meaning of returning to home

Why plead for oblivion?
Let the memories stay
Moments unforgettable remain
Why are we crying?

And I cry as I lose something that was never mine
As I lose the biggest part of myself in this perpetual quest

They wonder why I travel alone
Nobody knows eternity is my home
And it possesses my soul in patience
Where honesty has become my essence
Death was scared away

Have I survived in this quest?
Fill with breath my chest
Passing moments won’t bleed
Am I caught in between?

And I cry for everything that I didn’t give
As this part of myself only I have seen
