06 The Shining Path

Nine ways lead to infinity, one door is open still
The ageless sage is watching us and look at us he will
The timeless silent woods is you, the changing tide is I.
Come, let us go to destiny and look it in the eye.

The western sky was overcast when the phantasmal forces passed
And under ice, in ages deep a silent watcher woke from sleep.
The sun burned down the mountain range and forests whispered very strange.
The raven caught a lark in flight and then shattered the light.

To the northern sphere the purple priest called out into the field.
In a crystal shard a frozen icy heart began to bleed.
The seven glowing signs unfolded dancing through the streets.
As the eleventh hour struck two ancient spirits meet.

While to the east the moon eclipsed, the stars rolled out to sea.
About the roads of midnight hung a sentinel for you and me.
As finally the sky was blank a voice called from the grey.
The cord of time began to swing, the darkness fades away.

In the southern sky another fire burns away.
The shadow fell apart after the next turn of the card.
And following the call four golden riders filled the hall.
A thousand pages turn with all the words we had to learn.

While here and now by marshes cold through forests wild and forests old
Among the hills and mountainheights, on valley’s green and golden light,
By roads that wind into the night and rivers freezing out of sight,
Throughout the oceans far and wide to destiny we ride.
