Lyrics A New Dawn - Shylmagoghnar

A New Dawn

We are men of a thousand faces
Of the motionless mask
Underneath which a battle is raging
And danger lies in losing grasp
We must burn our boats;
to leave behind
The shores of our damnable past
As we take a deep breath;
through the fog
That used to suffocate
What’s done is done;
the dice were cast
And the only path before us lies
Striding towards the riches of a new dawn
But before we can relinquish
The strangleholds of the past
We must one last time revisit
Those depths, where we hardly dare go
Enter the mind!
A bottomless pit of inspiration
A bottomless pit of sorrow as well
One must watch his steps
Not to fall in self-deception
(Where) we once gave in
To endless waves of melancholy
The weight of the world
And the torment of troubled souls
There is no turning back now;
to what once was
As hardship transformed;
the path has been forged
Pain led to knowledge and insight
So revel while you can;
in the dusk of the past
As a new dawn;
grand;
rejuvenous
Emerges through our hands
Revel ye pity humans;
in the dusk of the past
As a new dawn emerges;
emerges
Through our hands
Therein lies hope;
therein lies strength
Built on the ashes of the old world
Therein lies life;
therein lies meaning;
therein lies strength
As the sun of a new dawn engulfs the skies
