Evenoire - Herons lyrics



Tracks



01. Herons

Herons watch over seasons going by
Waters run through fields of death and life
Stolid keepers of blemished souls

By the river they listen to the wind
Secret calls, ancient memories
Herons fly towards burning skies

02. Drops Of Amber

From Po River a wail
Black poplars, bleakness
Forsaken in pain
Among autumn leaves
Seven sisters stand
It's the hidden place
Where the son of the sun once died

Close your eyes and listen
To the echoes carried by the wind
From the riverbank
Herons guide you
To the whispers of the dead

Daughters of the sun cry
Drops of amber from their bark

I can hear your voice
Feel your hand in mine
Heron spreads the wings
Draws horizons
Where you forever rest
I found you again
At the gates of eternal night

Close your eyes and listen
To the echoes carried by the wind
From the riverbank
Herons guide you
To the whispers of the dead
Daughters of the sun cry
Drops of amber from their bark

03. Seasons Of Decay

I'm still
Waiting for you to come back
Struggling
Against snakes devouring my strength

Left here
With a blade stuck in my memorie
Am I using it
To kill you or myself?

Behind the window
I see your shadow
But you won't return

Won't you regret?

Promises
Fall together with sanity
Bullets of grudge hit me in the eyes
Oh, can't you see
Your lies infected my brain?

Crawling
Into mud of self-deception
You dragged me
Into everlasting season of decay

Damn you to hell!

Promises
Fall together with sanity
Bullets of grudge hit me in the eyes
Oh, can't you see
Your lies infected my brain?

04. Love Enslaves

Desperate voice
Restless cry in the night
They say she lost all
'Cause she refused love

So many kings
Tried to possess her reign
So many lies they told
To charm her heart

Love enslaves
Makes you blind
I don't want to feel like this
Love makes you weak
Destroys your mind
I'll keep it far away

Nobody will
Weaken my light
I'll live my life
Alone

Don't be afraid of your loneliness
Defend yourself and
Fight to keep safe your identity
No one will do it for you

Hard we will fight
I'm the queen, your guide
I won't give up
For freedom I'll die

The time has come
Water's turning to red
Our souls become one
With the bleeding lake

Love enslaves
Makes you blind
I don't want to feel like this
Love makes you weak
Destroys your mind
I'll keep it far away

No man will ever
Trap my heart
I'll live my life
Alone

Don't be afraid of your loneliness
Defend yourself and
Fight to keep safe your identity
No one will do it for you

05. The Newborn Spring

Into the fog
Three times we walk around
The bonfire
In circle we sing the spell
Hands in hands eyes in eyes
This is the rite, they say
Love will last far beyond death

Tonight we celebrate the newborn spring

Winter is gone
Take off your masks
Scream out the pain
Turn on your lives
Old tree is burning
Past to ash
Never look back
Let it go

Try and try again
Don't lose your faith
Above the rage river rests
Stop asking why
Flames purify
Dry tears and stay
Here awhile

I waited so long
For a sun to heal my scars
Cold days are passed
Will I find those good eyes
A redemption?

06. When The Sun Sets

Ortnit the king rode to the East
To deliver Jerusalem
Guided by the Lord of Elves

Magic sword, silver armour
No one beat him, his fame was great
Hero into savage lands

Secret desire to kidnap the daughter
Of Sultan and take her to his realm
To give his people a worthy queen

Could not resist her eyes as deep
As winter skies of Garda nights
Moon was high, he fulfilled his aim

"Don't be afraid you will be loved"
When the sun sets
Fire holds skies above
Glowing waves caress
The dragons' dance
Keep me in your thoughts
We'll be one
Behind golden waters of time
Dragons still fly

Sultan's revenge: send a gift to them
A hunter with two dragon eggs
In a cave fierce they became

Destruction, fire everywhere
Only a brave could save the land from the end
So the proud king left to find the beasts

Hunting for days he decided to rest
He fell asleep by a cursed tree
Dragons smell the knight, no way to survive

They sucked his blood and stole his soul
Flew up and dived into Garda lake
Where the Mount reflects water turns to red

When the sun sets
Fire hold skies above
Glowing waves caress
The dragons' dance
Keep me in your thoughts
We'll be one
Behind golden waters of time
Dragons still fly

07. Tears Of Medusa

My dear poseidon, that night
Your embrace was deep as the oceans
No one will love me anymore
Cold tears stream down my damned face

Don't look at me
I'd drive you to death
Halted heartbeat
Prisoners of pain
Tears of medusa
Empty emotions
Lack of sentiment
Tears of medusa

Endless damnation, my curse
Deadly temptation, my eyes
Petrified you rest in time
With a gaze I can kill you

Tears of medusa
On your heart of stone

Don't look at me
I'd drive you to death
Halted heartbeat
Prisoners of pain
Tears of medusa
Empty emotions
Lack of sentiment
Tears of medusa

08. Devil's Signs

He came to abduct me
In the evenings
I waited for his hollow embrace
I felt alive

"Dance with me 'till the morning light" he said
"Never cry for me I would destroy you heart"

Under the moon I'm just the desire
Of the wildest nights
Before the sunrise
Slowly moving into your arms
Heaven becomes hell
Dance of death

In the wood our breathing
Silence
False eyes so pure
Snow turned to fire

I followed him 'till the secret tree
Valley was burning under our feet
I felt alive

"Don't be afraid of me" he said, taking my hand
"Just close your eyes and fall tonight with me"

Under the moon I'm just the desire
Of the wildest nights
Before the sunrise
Slowly moving into your arms
Heaven becomes hell
Dance of death

Flames around
He was the Evil
Jumping down off the cliff
Dragged me into hell
On an ancient stone
Lies the shadows
Of that wicked love
The devil's signs

09. The Lady Of The Game

Hold our hands, chain our hearts
Feet caress earth
Touch the breath of trees
Feel the rhythm in your knees
Fire is burning high
Sisters' voices fill the night
Forest lives you can hear
Mesmerizing melodies

When the wind gets colder
From mounts she descends
Holding a shining torch
Three times sings the owl
Dressed with full moon light
Thundering "whose is the night?"
Answer right, without shame
Follow the lady of the game

"Whose is the night?"
"Mine, yours and for the ones who don't live the day"

Loose control
Run away from rationality and
Let the lady guide us
Before the fire of oblivion
Fire of hypocrisy
Kills all the innocence
Memories of
Sacred eyes vanished

She leads you through paths
Of perdition and occult
Drives your journey
To the realm of death
Obey just your senses
Magic circle will protect
Your way to the wild
Abyss of reality

Before the sun rises
People swear that they have seen
Young women rushing
Up and down the valleys
Echoes of laughs and screams
Close to fountains and creeks
Just greet, don't escape
From the lady of the game

Loose control
Run away from rationality and
Let the lady guide us
Before the fire of oblivion
Fire of hypocrisy
Kills all the innocence
Memories of
Sacred eyes vanished

10. Wild Females

My child you must sleep tonight
Or the winter witch will come
She's angry and she'll find your bed
From the wood she hears you crying
With her long legs
Fast she'll run to you

Stay away from the cliff my son
The lady with green hair lives there
She's savage and cruel, has twisted feet
In a secret cave she hides
She helps our village
In return she wants our children

Look out if you pass by a swamp
The woman of the fog appears
She's old and she came from the mist
With a rope she will tie your neck
She has no piety
Will strangle and drown you

Soft glow in the dark
There's a woman waiting for you
Like a vision appeared
Maybe just imagination
Now you can't escape
Just accept your fate
And believe your eyes
She is here for you tonight

Beautiful creatures
Daughters of nature
Dangerous and generous
Gentle and evil
Lovely faces hide
Merciless hearts
Dream or nightmare?
Shy and fascinating
Rebel and fierce
Wild females

Don't stare at the Saint of light
with ash she'll make you blind
she's blonde and she came from the North
at night with candlelight
if you hear the bell she's coming to you

Don't fall in love with her
She's the fairy of the creeks
Herbs of our mounts she knows
A white dress hides her scaly skin
Her enchanting face
May deceive your heart

If you closely look when fire burns
You'll see the Salamander
She's made of flames
Her warm touch kindles your desire
Don't be dazzled by lust because she will vanish

Beautiful creatures
Daughters of nature
Dangerous and generous
Gentle and evil
Lovely faces hide
Merciless hearts
Dream or nightmare?
Shy and fascinating
Rebel and fierce
Wild females

Now you can't escape
Just accept your fate
And believe your eyes
She is here for you tonight
