Lyrics
The silence is whispering to me in voices only I hear
Of memories I wish to live once more, memories I hold most dear
In the light of dying fires, divine beyond what I’m allowed,
I glimpse the spurs of runaway sighs before they flicker out
And I long to sleep eternally, peaceful in my release
Free me at last of my promise to stay
I long to go beyond
Beyond the horizon, I’ll follow where love has gone
Twilight finds me here alone
Beyond the horizon, I see your love shining, oh,
My ghostlight, my afterglow
My light, my sole surviving friend, as darkness still huddles near
Flirting with my weary soul, of age beyond my years
My wishes flow in rivulets, scarlet in the night
In pools of staring emptiness, drowning in the tide
And I long to sleep eternally, peaceful in my release
Free me at last, of my promise to stay
I long to go beyond
Beyond the horizon…
There are those who have become lost in the darkness, and found hope
Those who have surrendered to the fires of tribulation, and been reborn
Those who can illuminate the history of our time to come
We call them...
Ghostlights
Trivia
- The speech at the end of the track (mirroring the one at the start of Firedancer) clarifies what the concept of a "Ghostlight" actually is.
