Lyrics Stranger Skies - Shadow Witch

Stranger Skies

Oh thou who burns in heart for those you find here burning
In this hall whose mighty fires you shall feed in turn
How long have you be crying no mercy for the weak
In the court of the dragon god
What mercy would you wanna seek
On the shore waves break the twin suns sink
Monsters rise to serve the yellow king
Shadows lengthen now through stranger skies
Red dawn comes to watch blue starlight die
Voice of my soul
My song is dead
Die here unsung
My tears un-shed
Nearer yet nearer still ~ no lock could bar his entry
Moving softly at the door ~ the bolts rot with his touch
Past human help or hope, past remorse, past relief
The yellow king ~ his tattered mantle
Opens spreading grief
On the shore waves break the twin suns sink
His tattered mantle opens
Monsters rise to serve the yellow king
The yellow king awakes
Shadows lengthen now through stranger skies
Under stranger skies
Red dawn comes to watch blue starlight die
Voice of my soul
My song is dead
Die here unsung
My tears un-shed
We have eaten of the tree
Eden’s innocence and dreams they flee
A grey blot is growing there in the gloom
Shadows fall about and bloom
Nearer and nearer still ~ no lock could bar his entry
Moving softly at the door ~ the bolts rot with his touch
Past human help or hope, past remorse, past relief
The yellow king ~ his tattered mantle
Opens spreading grief
