Riddle Of Eternity Lyrics

Riddle Of Eternity lyrics

[Music / Lyrics by Torbjærn Weinesjæ]







I stand and watch the sea



The storm is watching me



I know the end is near



Yet I don't feel the fear







I see the face of an ancient king







I stand and close my eyes



As the world hears my sighs



My friends, now enemies



My case is clear to see







The storm that came this day was no surprise



The book of life revealed before my eyes







Alone I stand when all is gone



Riddle of eternity



Alone I stand, it's the sign of the times



Alone I stand when all is gone



Riddle of eternity







I stand and hear what's said



I see one shake his head



He's not wearing a crown



So I watch him drown







His fall, a thorn in my side, I cry







What would you do



If your eyes grew darkened



For what you had chosen to see



If you knew what would happen



Wich sights would you chose



Or just say it can't happen to me



Is it that we live in a dream



'Cause the real world is too frightening to see



Is the price too high to pay today



So we'll wait 'till tomorrow



To see if we can barter us free







So we sleep like a child



So we sleep like a child



So we sleep
