Song lyrics

A raven came to me,
Spoke to me in my dream.
A long lost prophecy,
A forgotten legacy.

Echoes of yesterday,
Won't let these dreams fade away.
All the beauty I adored,
At the edge of the world.

Across the universe,
Time is to be reversed.
No shelter can be found,
To this fate, we are bound!

Behold the final hour,
The last times will be dour.
All life falls into gorge
Of the end of the world!

"Burning skies
On the vengeances night.
Devastating scythe,
Of the ancient Light." *

I saw the might,
Of the ancient Light!
And the beauty of the perishing world,
There's no tomorrow,
We have been warned.

Across the universe,
Time is to be reversed.
No shelter can be found,
To this fate, we are bound!

Behold the final hour,
The last times will be dour.
All life falls into gorge
Of the end of the world!

"The sky's bird struck fire,
Made a flame flare up.
The north wind burnt the clearing.
The north-east quite consumed it:
It burnt all the trees to ash
And reduced them to dust." *

"Burning skies
On the vengeances night.
Devastating scythe,
Of the ancient Light." *

I saw the might,
Of the ancient Light!
And the beauty of the perishing world,
There's no tomorrow,
We have been warned.

From Afar

A raven came to me,
Spoke to me in my dream.
A long lost prophecy,
A forgotten legacy.

Echoes of yesterday,
Won't let these dreams fade away.
All the beauty I adored,
At the edge of the world.

Across the universe,
Time is to be reversed.
No shelter can be found,
To this fate, we are bound!

Behold the final hour,
The last times will be dour.
All life falls into gorge
Of the end of the world!

"Burning skies

Devastating scythe,
Of the ancient Light." *

I saw the might,
Of the ancient Light!
And the beauty of the perishing world,
There's no tomorrow,
We have been warned.

Across the universe,

"The sky's bird struck fire,

And the beauty of the perishing world,
There's no tomorrow,
