Thy Shadows Fall Lyrics

Come from the influence of an unseen star,
beneath dark birds that fill the air.
Like those who did not hear or care.
We could not fathom what they meant,
save only that they seemed
to thin the blood along in our veins.

I see the stars at mortal wars.
In shadows danger lurks for those who stray.
I warmed both hands before the fire of life.
They are not long - the days of wine and roses.
Within its vital boundary of the mind.

Then thy shadows fall.
The garden hardens and grows cold,
and nothing gold like the fire in the night can stay.
Only the faint moonlight on the stairs.

All that has been was visible from the graves forgotten here.
Down through these earthly mists, a vital breath of more ethereal air.

Thy shadows fall.
The garden hardens and grows cold, and I feel nothing.
The garden hardens and grows cold.
Gold like the fire in the night can't stay,
and we forget each other.
Only the faint moonlight shall remain,
and think that I may never live to trace their shadows.
