Nightgazer

Storm clouds appear at the horizon
A shadow like a blanket covers the ground
The spirits are unleashed to leave the atmosphere
The darkness swallows an enormous amount

I gaze into the night

Long to lift off and be with them
But I am bound to stay until the end of days

The light must shine, the fire must burn to run the machine
That's channeling the magic stream of life mortals
Oh so dumb, the lucky break from earth never know the pain of the deprived

I gaze into the night
Long to lift off and be with them
But I am bound to stay until the end of days

I follow my destiny, what else could I do?
Eternal reign on earth forced upon my back
The passion of these mortal lives must be kept in flames
Guess who's the captain steering this planets sinking wrack

Armageddon I await to come
To be free for long, long, long
Until creation calls me back to duty
I gaze into the night

Long to lift off and be with them
But I am bound to stay until the end of days
