lyrics

AURORA! THE FIRST LIGHT
I’ve crawled along my belly, made way through the forest rough, Face buried in the earth, lost and alone
Gazed upon the heavens, longing to see, bright glowing eyes, in a moment the world ceased to be
Crawled on my belly, made way through the forest rough, Face buried in the earth, lost and alone
Tired body, the restless reborn, an amorphous beginning, from which life can take form
Like strokes of caribou fur, and spirits dancing in the night sky, Like spirits dancing in the night sky, like spirits dancing in the night
Rosy fingered dawn, the falling flames, Bring daylight in the night, in flowing streams
Oceans surrounded, by vast flames, flares of the sun, circle to the night side
Rosy fingered dawn, the falling flames, Bring daylight in the night, in flowing streams
Tired body, the restless reborn, an amorphous beginning, from which life can take form
Like strokes of caribou fur, and spirits dancing in the night sky, Like spirits dancing in the night sky, like spirits dancing in the night
At the start only chaos, then out of the void, Erebus
The unknowable place where death dwells, all else was empty, silent, endless, darkness
From nothing we’re born, and to nothing we’ll return, Night alone brought death, and all that came to man from darkness
From nothing we’re born, and to nothing we’ll return, Night alone brought death, and all that came to man from darkness
A great red dragon shining, in the night light, like heavens open eyes, and stars like rain fell from the sky
Great red dragon shining, in the night light, like heavens open eyes, and stars like rain fell
From nothing we’re born, and to nothing we’ll return, Night alone brought death, and all that came to man from darkness
From nothing we’re born, and to nothing we’ll return, Night alone brought death, and all that came to man from darkness
A great red dragon shining, in the night light, like heavens open eyes, and stars like rain fell from the sky
Great red dragon shining, in the night light, like heavens open eyes, and stars like rain fell from the sky
In the beginning we thrive on chaos, in the end only death can save us
In the beginning we thrive on chaos, in the end only light will save us
