eons enthroned - veins of gold lyrics
[verse 1]
so hard
it’s getting hard to breathe
pushed so close to breaking
under the weight of destiny
why wasn’t it enough
to fall and learn to rise?
to forge myself anew
a little harder every time?
[pre+chorus]
have i prepared myself for death
just to relive it all again?
when, oh when will it end?
[chorus]
so what is destiny’s demand?
a burning sword or a sheltering hand?
a sacrifice to save a land
why must this all fall on one man?
[verse 2]
shouting to the sky
from this high mountain peak
a dying world below
“how much will they bе forced to bleed?”
no answer back
just storm winds blowing cold
just dark and twisting clouds
like grеat leviathans of old
[pre+chorus]
and if this is the fate of life
to fight and die again and fade to time
why even try?
[chorus]
so what is destiny’s demand?
a burning sword or a sheltering hand?
a sacrifice to save a land
why must this all fall on one man?
[guitar solo]
[verse 3]
left with no choice i take it in (left with no choice i take it in)
from the true source i seize saidin
in raging torrents coursing wild (in raging torrents coursing wild)
inside i feel the power
a storm of light inside these veins (a storm of light inside these veins)
the endless tempest i’ve embraced
enough to bring down earth and sky (enough to bring down earth and sky)
enough to bring an ending
[pre+chorus]
let the power flow
stronger than i’ve ever felt before
we don’t have to struggle anymore
[chorus]
burning bright
i am the cleansing light
they named me dragon, now i bring the fire
burning bright
the only end in sight
the dragon is reborn for the last time
[verse 4]
another battle one more age
trapped in the cycle, no escaping
so weaves the wheel forever on
our endless fate unless i break it
the only way to bring an end
and spare us from this fate again
no light, no shadow, nothing more
the peace of a final silence
[pre+chorus]
if we can’t be saved
i can bring the mercy of the grave
if that’s what it takes to end the pain
[chorus]
burning bright
i am the cleansing light
they named me dragon, now i bring the fire
burning bright
the only end in sight
the dragon is reborn for the last time
[bridge]
so is this destiny’s demand?
both burning sword and sheltering hand?
the power to unmake a land
ready to end it, but i can’t
[instrumental interlude]
[instrumental break]
[verse 5]
a voice inside that i can’t quell
from a past life with truth to tell
what if we’re here to try again?
to strive on and make it better
each time the burden ours to bear
yet each time love and laughter shared
how could i be so lost to think
that the price is not worth paying?
[pre+chorus]
if they stand on strong
who am i to tell them they are wrong?
for them and beside them i’ll fight on
[chorus]
burning bright
i’m the redeeming light
i finally cleared the shadow from my mind
in these hands
i hold a second chance
may the dragon ride again on winds of time
may the dragon ride again on winds of time
