The Memory Of Light Lyrics

From the Heavens above,
through the silent twilight she fell.
Blinding light of a falling star,
or wings ablaze?

I watched her sleeping away her pain
under the eyes of her crows.
The dark grew around her like
the shadows as the sun went down.

I offered her salvation from
this place of woe and thorns.
Washed her wings so black from ashes,
and hid away her horns.

Wipe away your black tears,
welcome the darker times.
The day of tomorrow is
for the chosen ones.

From the fires of yesterday
until the Hell of tomorrow,
the memory of light is all we have.

The fear in her voice
kept echoing in my mind like
the cries of a lost child who knows
she won't last through the night.

Under the stars of the open sky
she gazed into the night.
Wondered why she fell below,
abandoned by the light.

The ballet of shooting stars above,
she watches them in tears every night.
Her wings chained down to earth,
unable to leave.

I'm the guardian of her Hell,
the one to remind her that
love will get you here.

Wipe away your black tears,
welcome the darker times.
The day of tomorrow is
for the chosen ones.

From the fires of yesterday
until the Hell of tomorrow,
the memory of light is all we have.

I watched her sleeping away her pain
under the eyes of her crows.
The dark grew around her like
the shadows as the sun went down.

From the Heavens above,
through the silent twilight she fell.
Blinding light of a falling star,
or wings ablaze?
