The Company Of Storms Lyrics

The Company Of Storms lyrics

you told me the sun would always rise

and if it shouldn't shine have faith

'cause one day that great burning star's light

one once again dance across my face

I heard the roar of the parting seas

and the mourning of a blackened sun

I saw the last flower wither away

when our flesh turned to stone

I felt the frigid blood in my veins grow still

like winter's paralyzed streams

as the soil beneath our feet gave way

to iron and asphalt dreams



when nighttime stars flicker with grief and despair

and dusk threatens senses too dazed to stay clear

their heavens will beckon,

and angels will whisper my name

wings of scarlet hue, their truth soaked in blood

on wounded knees I've crawled

through the nameless streets of this world I love



my heart is heavy with burden

I'm feeling empty inside

so fill me up and give me a taste of life



give me a place to hide, mother

offer me your caress and let it last forever

let me cry in your arms

let me die in your embrace



my hands have held your paradise

your heavens blazed

from upon the highest hills,

my lonely and wanting eyes did gaze

for I was in love with life and this world

but they tried to take that from me

if this is the reward of the harvest

then I gladly give you my share
