The monumental sleep
With the sunrise at my feet
Where's the altar of the gods,
The wrath and the floods?All is in vainOf stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I'm fading through lifeFrom nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that wise man said:
"From presence to silence... we flow"Of stars and smoke
The rainbows in the sky
Soon their colors die
I see the birds of prey
They've been circling here all dayIt's always the sameOf stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I'm fading through lifeFrom nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that wise man said:
"From presence to silence... we flow"We live the eternal dream
The big and cosmic scheme
A part that we all play
To stand the last of days
It's all just a gameOf stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I'm fading through lifeFrom nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that the wise man said:
"From presence to silence... we flow"Of stars and smoke
