In solitude I wander
Through the vast enchanted forestThe surrounding skies are one
Torn apart by the phenomenon of lightning
Rain is pouring down my (now) shivering shoulders
In the rain my tears are forever lostThe darkened oaks are my only shelter
Red leaves are blown by the wind
An ebony raven now catches my eye
Sitting in calmness
Before spreading his black wings
Reaching for the skiesIn this forest
Where wolves cry their agony unto the moon
My spirit is hidden
In the form of wisdom
Carved on a black stone
The only way to followOpen your soul
Redeem, I am immortalBlinded by a light
My soul is held up in glory
I engulf the skies
The apostle in triumphThrough the eternal flame I travel
As the rain keeps falling
