New Orphans Elegy

Inside, in dull darkness light shows the way
Exposes unexplored labyrinths
A guide inside the chaos, a compass in the void
The star to follow when you are lost

Breaking the rules through their way
Exploring where none has gone
Standing as a lighthouse in the shore
The lantern that blinds all fears
The burning fire seems to live forever more

The stars that shine tonight are not alive
But still echoes in their wake their song
In their first steps the prophets try to thrive
Unbound and drowned they intone their dirge

Guidance nevermore
Astray, feel so lost
Soon to be perennial grey

Riders of black, they ride in the night
Ethereal in the moonlight

The stars that shine tonight are not alive
But still echoes in their wake their song
In their first steps the prophets try to thrive
Unbound and drowned they intone their dirge

Guidance nevermore
Astray, feel so lost
Soon to be perennial grey
Into the words, in the wind fading out
Impotency, prelude of death

Prelude of death, fading out in the wind
