ETERNAL OATH LYRICS

1. The Dawn

[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen Lyrics: Maensivu]

Little child now it's time to close your eyes
and soon into my hands you will fall
I am the ruler of dreams
In midnight hour you will enter my world

Darkness knocks on your door, dreamtime arrives
Your world is gone, you have entered mine

The dawn-bringing the tears of the world
The dawn-also driving the darkness away

Arriving to the city among clouds
In here you can be whatever you want

We travel through lands, times and deeds
Realm of opportunities lies just in front of your eyes
The truth is gone, beaten by the fantasy
Darkness reaches for you, but you're safe until..

The dawn-bringing the tears of the world
The dawn-also driving the darkness away

Little child...

2. Harmonic Souls Departed

[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen/Almquist/Jonsson Lyrics: Maensivu]

Friends for long, yet now its bygone
gone like winter fades to spring
Leaving marks in our heart like
red-cryed eyes leaves a salty taste,
as it flows free down our face
to end up on a pillow and
then be forgotten with time

Sworn friendship supposed to last forever
Ended such fast as it had begun,
Your decision of a shortcut,
instead of rising up on your feet
still seems inconceivable

Like a scared little one, crying in the corner
You left me behind in pain

"What choises does a leaf have,
When the autumn appears"
was the last question you had
before you ended your days
It can only fall, no matter how much it
wants to live, It can only fall...

Goodbye my friend, now when i'm alone
I'm keeping the memory of you alive
The picture of you smiling remains
in my heart, someday it's my turn
I will never forget you

3. So Silent

[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen/Jonsson Lyrics: Maensivu]

My thoughts travelling
the endless passage of curiosity
Within hours I weaken
He stares straight through me
Hungering for the last of the glow in me
Dilution of my will stealing all the odds

So silent, will my mind give up
Control is no longer up to me
Weakened I await for the final touch
of death to strike for me
So silent, So silent...

The candle on the table unmasks his presence
by a shadow and I feel the emptiness that
Radiates from him

So silent, will my mind give up
Control is no longer up to me
Weakened I await for the final touch
of death to strike for me
So silent, So silent...

Absurd dreams reaching for a truth
Lost in the fantasy
Beyond the walls of immortal life
becomes reality

So silent...

4. Insanity

[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen Lyrics: Maensivu]

My decisions are my law, matter to me
Concern of no-one else, living on my own
growing free, guided by none
A savior of my own
Like trees decides within to grow
You'll have no rights to criticise me

Who the hell made you god?
You don't have a mind of your own
You're living by rules
Rules made by others like you

Through this silent world I crawled
Alone in the shivering darkness
I stand on my own in this world so gone
I don't need no helping hand from anyone

See it as gods gift, if it's what pleases you
But it is cause of my roots, annealed by
my growing

For the sake of mine, I'm pleasing thy god
Into a lie, in for your lie

Lost from the path of harmony
Tortuous shore shatters last dreams
Dreams of hope to make it through the day
Broken man lies confused
Crying him back to sleep

5. Eternal Rest

[Music: Tarvainen/Dziuba Lyrics: Maensivu]

Sworn to rise from his eternal rest
If he were invoked by a human hand,
who knows gods forgotten name
It can undo the creation of the earth
Make god to a...

Slave, to the prince of dark
You're spilling your own blood, behold

Stop that betraying man from making such
a mistake, he's insane, You mad jezebel of...

Evil, You don't know what you've done
You're spilling your own blood

Seems like a dream, yet it is not
I've been given powers to command storms,
Children of the night, beasts of prey
Yet i'm still feared and hated
O, thee faithful believers so blind
Look what your god has done to me
Now not to be stopped, I'm summoned to rise

Behold I am the mutation of gods anger
Doomed to struggle in the darkness of the night
To disappear in the dawn

6. Dream Of Rising

[Music: Nagy/Tarvainen/Almquist Lyrics: Maensivu]

Shadows has now become my dominion
I am self nothing but a shadow

Wistful I dream, to be able to rise
to once again be the man I used to be
Wistful I dream, to be able to rise
to once again be the man I used to be

Tears has frozen on my cheeks
Brought by memorires
Brought by the disbelief in my faith

Touched by the winds of sadness
I've become the object of pity
I cannot fly through the skies of happiness
Though my wings are broken, so broken

Someday...
I will rise and feel the for so long denied
Air under my wings, but until then it is only
A dream, though my wings are broken

Shadows has now become my dominion
I am self nothing but a shadow

Wistful I dream, to be able to rise
to once again be the man I used to be
Wistful I dream, to be able to rise
to once again be the man I used to be
