Keldian - Requiem For The Light lyrics

rate me

Ten million tons of steel hurled across the sky<br />

Our final sleeper ship, none left to say goodbye<br />

For all our wisdom couldn't save her from the night<br />

Now hear our children sing their requiem for the light<br />

<br />

I want to stop the wheels of time<br />

I want it, I need it<br />

The light that gives me life again<br />

<br />

Ten thousand years in space, we slept across the dark<br />

Towards a burning star, we sailed a gliding arc<br />

But soon we had to journey back into the night<br />

And hear our children sing their requiem for the light<br />

<br />

I want to stop the wheels of time<br />

I want it, I need it<br />

The light that gives me life again<br />

<br />

Can you feel her burning love?<br />

Mother of all life, blazing glory from above<br />

<br />

A requiem for the light<br />

<br />

Far too old and far too young<br />

Behold another fading sun<br />

Gaze with hope into the sky<br />

But know that all our stars will die<br />

The eternal night we must survive<br />

<br />

A requiem for the light<br />

<br />

I want to stop the wheels of time<br />

I want it, I need it<br />

The light that gives me life again
