Lyrics Candlemass – Of Stars And Smoke
Text:
The monumental sleep
With the sunrise at my feet
Where’s the altar of the gods,
The wrath and the floods?
All is in vain
Of stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I’m wading through life
From nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that wise man said:
«From presence to silence…we flow»
The rainbows in the sky
Soon their colours die
I see the birds of prey
They’ve been circling here all day
It’s always the same
We live the eternal dream
The big and cosmic scheme
A part that we all play
To stand the last of days
It’s all just a game
Of stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I’m wading through life
From nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that the wise man said:
«From presence to silence…we flow»
