Wintersun - Storm

The burden gets heavier every day, and the passion is dying
And when it's all gone, all I can do is wither away
I swore that I would never put myself through this again
But I was seduced by the storm
And I knew I'd have to fight this to the end

Whirlwinds - growing
Raging - and screaming
Star skies - burning
Nightmares - devouring the light
Darkness - so black
Closing - in so fast
Shadows - haunting in my dark dreams
Dark dreams - I'm drowning into the dark

I'm heading into the storm
My heart is burning like fire
The poison is flowing in my veins
It's killing my senses and turning my blood into grey
Something is draining my strength
Something is trying to control me
I roam in the shadows
I'm fighting the demons of my dreams
But they won't leave me alone
Leave me alone!

I had to leave everything behind
I had to make a sacrifice
So I could capture the essence of time
- I shall capture the essence of time -
I needed to hide - in the dark
I needed to - get away
From the sad words that you whispered to me
They remained torturing in my mind
And it's driving me insane
You drove me insane!

Oh, how wistful and pale is the look in your eyes
There was nothing we could have done, this light was bound to die
Oh, how soon the skies turned to crimson and black
And the great shadow surrounded this beauty so fast
Oh, how suddenly a dark chaos was born
And the love in my heart was ripped away by the might of the storm

But the memory will stay whirling in the winds of time
Forever!
And the love in my heart was ripped away by the might of the storm
We never had the chance to say goodbye
But the memory will stay whirling in the winds of time
Forever! Forever!
And the love in my heart was ripped away by the might of the storm!
