Across the Universe of Time

Fires of Fate


I need you to know me for me, no one else.

I need you to know me without changing myself.

I need you to see past the mask that I wear;

I need you to know that it's not always there.

----------

If I give in to tears, if I vanish from sight,

Please know that it's not because you're by my side.

I need to be certain you'll always be there,

Especially when the path isn't clear.

----------

I sit here and pray - I know it's all right;

I'll push through the shadows and summon the light.

But when I wish for darkness and retreat to hide,

Can you stand the dark if I let you inside?

----------

We will walk together - we can breach the wall.

And I promise to you that I won't let you fall.

I'll be there when you need me, I'll come when you call,

And we will be one at the end of it all.

----------

You've been there for me through the darkest of times,

And I can't believe now what fate had in mind

When it brought us together, so young and so true.

I say now, meldonya, that this is for you.

Across the Universe of Time

Wait for the Sunrise

I lie in wait behind the shadows of my thoughts.

The tears I hold inside are not for me.

The world has changed into a different place,

And it is because of this that I weep.

My thoughts cannot be manifested into truth.

The world would turn to chaos if they were.

The hope that yet remains would be destroyed

And still we harbor feelings of success.

Despite all that we?ve been through, we still hope,

And prayer is our only savior now.

Were I to speak, I?d change the tides of fate,

And pull the world around to a false existence.

----------

The air is different than it's been before.

The water lies upon the earth and leaves.

The fires die and the light may fade.

The ice is melting; who will be the one to fall?

The lights diminish; the sun begins to drop.

The wind blows stronger and winds around the trees.

The earth now waits until its time is come

To follow time until we return home.

----------

But hope has not yet forsaken these lands,

For it remains in all we hold so dear.

For fate may change ? the tides may turn themselves

And bring hope back for their unbound success.

The world is changed, but the race of Men not yet lost,

And I await the sunrise ? the start of a new Age.
