You lie beyond the horizon
On an island of light
I bow to your beauty
And your flashing grey eyes
Even though you are invisible
Starlight reflects on your shield
As you move so graciously
In the night sky
Then, in my dreams
In full armor, you appear
Smile and say have no fear
The battle was won
Before it began

I rode the storm
One hand tied behind my back
Only to find solace
In the mud of the track
It all went down so well
That May Day
When the sky fell
I was there but I shan’t tell

My lips are bleeding
I’m lost for words
My wings are burning
Just like the Phoenix bird

On the lake
I hear echoes
Endless waves
Of skipping stones
And those crystal
Pledges of silence
They lay broken
Like windowpanes
From a distance
Rings a bell
A dog barks, somebody yells
I was there but I shan’t tell

My lips are bleeding
I’m lost for words
My wings are burning
Just like the Phoenix bird

In the abbey
I wake up
To a stormy dawn sublime
A revelation
Cuts like a diamond
Through space and time
Neither heaven, nor hell
From a sleepwalker’s dream
Duly expelled
I was there but I shan’t tell

My lips are bleeding
I’m lost for words
My wings are burning
Just like the Phoenix bird

In the end
All that was left
From the spoils of the theft
Was a rusted old mouth harp
And the pain that felt so sharp
Cast out forever
Free of all spells
I found out where   
The dragonfly dwells
I was there but I shan’t tell

My lips are bleeding
I’m lost for words
My wings are burning
Just like the Phoenix bird
