Father father
|
Can you tell me
|
Where the hours go
|
Where time flows ?
|
It is written in the stars
|
Upon the milky way
|
That we must burn bright
|
Before we fade away ?
|
|
Mother mother
|
Can you tell me
|
Where the fire goes
|
When the flames cease ?
|
"From the ashes to the astral plain
|
Where the setting sun meets the sea, Brendan"
|
|
I live by the river
|
Where the old gods still dream
|
Of inner communion
|
With the open sea
|
|
Through the eye of the hunter
|
In search of a prey
|
Neither beast nor human
|
In my philosophy
|
|
If you don't recognise me
|
Well it's simply because
|
I've outgrown these old clothes
|
Time to move on
|
|
For you and I will outlive
|
The masks life gave us
|
When this shadowplay comes
|
To a close
|
