Swallowed by the Night |
| I was dying in the moss |
| I was sick and I was lost |
| In the forests of black rain |
| I had almost gone insane |
| Someone heard my desperate cries |
| A spirit in a wolf’s disguise |
| He took me through the forest deep |
| As my body fell asleep |
| (Sung as the last part) |
| [I was sinking in the sea |
| Until darkness swallowed me |
| And the water filled my chest |
| As the pressure crushed me |
| I was taken by the streams |
| Away from my lonely dreams |
| Then on the bottom of the ocean |
| I was freed from all emotion] |
| I was running from a fire |
| I ran through woods and over mire |
| Through thick smoke and dark terrain |
| I just couldn’t embrace the pain |
| As I ran the fire spread |
| Until all was burnt and dead |
| Then in the ashes of my shell |
| Something new began to dwell |
| In my shade no flowers bloomed |
| I was cursed and I was doomed |
| But what falls will also land |
| Mother nature took my hand |
| Pain to strength and tears to gold |
| I grew wiser as I grew old |
| And out of any dead remains |
| Flowers grow and new life reigns |
