Elephant - The Sleepwalker lyrics

rate me

In a dark age, I walked among the tyrants<br />

Six we were - bound in a midnight trance<br />

Every night we would die together<br />

Restless and reckless with no destination but escape<br />

Time to go to sleep, soon the dreams will come<br />

Eyghon possess me, take me anywhere but here<br />

To where nightmares still walk in physical form<br />

Before they were imprisoned in the quiescence of the mind<br />

Drawn by the tenebrous spirits to the bacchanals of Achelous<br />

Gazing into the souls entwined in the rivers of Etruria<br />

<br />

Warriors of evil blood gathered in the depths<br />

Initiating the projection across countless morbid planes<br />

A circle of extinction amongst the silent stars<br />

Dormant in the darkness of rebirth<br />

<br />

Days of chaos, black magic and sorcery<br />

Feeling the surge of exhilaration for pleasure or gain<br />

Dreading the inevitable leap into the spectral rush<br />

From the edge of this timeless ritual<br />

<br />

Treasuring the moments eternal, hearing the somber sounds of the rain<br />

Recalling the premonitions whispered in the crimson mists of the dawn
