Lyrics Of Stars And Smoke - Candlemass

Of Stars And Smoke

The monumental sleep
With the sunrise at my feet
Where’s the altar of the gods,
The wrath and the floods?
All is in vain
Of stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I’m wading through life
From nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that wise man said:
«From presence to silence… we flow»
The rainbows in the sky
Soon their colours die
I see the birds of prey
They’ve been circling here all day
It’s always the same
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 game
Of stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I’m wading through life
From nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that the wise man said:
«From presence to silence… we flow»
