The Fountain Of Lamneth letra

I am born
I am me
I am new
I am free

Look at me
I am young
Sight unseen
Life unsung

My eyes have just been opened and they're open very wide
Images around me don't identify inside
Just one blur I recognize the one that soothes and feeds
My way of life is easy and as simple are my needs

Yet my eyes are drawn toward the mountain in the east
Fascinates and captivates gives my heart no peace
The mountain holds the sunrise in the prison of the night
Till burstin' forth from rocky chains the valley floods with light

Living one long sunrise for to me all things are new
I've never watched the sky grow pale or strolled through fields of dew
I do not know of dust to dust, I live from breath to breath
I live to climb that mountain to the Fountain of Lamneth

Yet my eyes are drawn toward the mountain in the east
Fascinates and captivates and gives my heart no peace
The mountain holds the sunrise in the prison of the night
Till burstin' forth from rocky chains the valley floods with light

Stay, go
Work, no
Learn, live
Earn, give
Stay or fight?
What's right?
Listen

Crying back to consciousness
The coldness grips my skin
The sky is pitching violently
Drawn by shrieking winds

Sea spray blurs my vision
Waves roll by so fast
Save my ship of freedom
I'm lashed helpless to the mast

Remembering when first I held
The wheel in my own hands
I took the helm so eagerly
And sailed for distant lands

But now the sea's too heavy
And I just, I just don't understand
Why must my crew desert me?
When I need, I need a guiding hand

Call out for direction and there's no one there to steer
Shout out for salvation but there's no one there to hear
Cry out supplication for the maelstrom is near
Scream out desperation but no one cares to hear

The whiteness of confusion
Is unfolding from my mind
I stare around in wonder
Have I left my life behind?

I catch the scent of ambergris
And turn my head, surprised
My gaze is caught and held and I
Am helpless, mesmerized

Panacea, liquid grace
Oh, let me touch your fragile face
Enchantment falls around me
And I know I cannot leave

Here's a meaning for my life
A shelter from the storm
Pacify my troubles with
Her body, soft and warm

Naked in our unity
A smile for every tear
Gentle hands that promise me
Comfort through the years

Yet I know I must be gone
Before the light of dawn

Panacea, passion pure
I can't resist your gentle lure
My heart will lie beside you
And my wandering body grieves

Another endless day
Silhouettes of gray
Another glass of wine
Drink with eyes that shine
Today's without that chill at morning
Long nights time out of mind

Draw another goblet from the cask of forty three
Crimson misty memory, hazy glimpse of me
Give me back my wonder I've somethin' more to give
I guess it doesn't matter, there's not much more to
Not much more to live

Another foggy dawn
The mountain almost gone
Another doubtful fear
The road is not so clear
My soul grows ever weary
And the end is ever near

Draw another goblet from the cask of forty three
Crimson misty memory, hazy glimpse of me
Give me back my wonder I've somethin' more to give
I guess it doesn't matter, there's not much more to
Not much more to live

Look, the mist is rising and the sun is peaking through
See the steps grow lighter as I reach their final few
Hear the dancing waters, I must be drawing near
Feel, my heart is pounding with embattled hope and fear

Now, at last I fall before the Fountain of Lamneth
I thought I would be singing but I'm tired out of breath
Many journeys end here but the secrets told the same
Life is just a candle and a dream must give it flame

The key, the end, the answer, stripped of their disguise
Still it's all confusion and tears spring to my eyes
Though I've reached a signpost, it's really not the end
Like Old Sol behind the mountain, I'll be comin' up again

I'm in motion
I am still
I am crying
I am still
I'm together
I'm apart
I'm forever
At the start
Still I am
