Corelia - Nostalgia lyrics



Tracks



01. Treetops

Oh off now
The call sounds near
Danger comes now, they won't find us here

In scorn they will burn!
...Once again it repeats
For thousands of years
Rain has shrouded our fears

Pawns disregard the ebb and flow
Overcrowded the stage has become
The human condition begs for more and mercy

Oh will you find a place within the vale?
Will you drift in discordant breeze?
The native soul will be lost in time
Our stage of bedlam forlorned

Blackness, darkness afar
In plumes they posture
With forboding nature
They claw at the sun

We wait for the end

Reform
The heart now stands clear
Danger comes now, they won't harm us here

The event of roaring decimation
Will swallow the earth and
Bring it to it's knees
The oil in the mud
Is boiling the blood of our sanctuary
These demons of iron will surely pay!

Stirring forth
Reclaim the land
From seeds sown
Gaia climbs again!

Frustration grows up
'Til we meet the sky
Away from here

Fel winds bring
Self-immolation
They will fail to find their abode

We wait for the end
We wait for the end of days
To come and save us all
We are the ones who need it most
To fix our minds on the unknown

02. Glass Faces

All my dreams
Are wavering right in front of me
Avoiding light
Deception aside, my dreams will come alive

They've come to terrorize and take away what once was mine
Watching in awe with empty eyes
Until I wake, my mind breaks, suffering withdrawal from the sublime

Making laughter, can't remember
How we spent our time together

Tell me my friend
What can you see?
What comes into your mind as you breathe?
Cause I see colors flourishing
Like you'd never believe
Like a pendulum swings
They swing with me

Breathe, just try to breathe
Think, try to think the reasons for anything
Believe, believe something beyond what you see
Chaos, be free, let it be what it wants you to be

Could you ever
Express your life in a phrase
Tell me my friend
What would it say?
That you lived your life and waited out your days?
Well you can take that to your grave

So, tell me my friend
What can you see?
What comes into your mind as you breathe?
Cause I see colors flourishing
Like you'd never believe
Like a pendulum swings
They swing with me

Breathe, just try to breathe
Think, try to think the reasons for anything

Making laughter, can't remember
All this time we've spent our days
Keeping to ourselves

Could you ever express your life in a phrase?
Can you find the words, what would they say?
That you loved and lost and waited out your days?
Well you can take that to your grave

03. The Sound Of Glaciers Moving

Leave, leave me here
For the grievous faults
That have fractured my past
I would do the same for you

(We wouldn't want you)
I was to be a legend
(To be a victim in it's stead)
But now I am a victim in it's stead
I hear the titans mocking me
Waiting in desperation

Stars are gazing on
Dishonest confessions
Sailing the seas of nostalgia's
Revery to send
My donations to the cosmos afar

I could not have known
I would end up down here
So alone, can't stay here any longer
I know.
Can't you see it in the dark?
I've grown so cold..

And as the stars are gazing on
Dishonest confessions
Sailing the seas of nostalgia's
Revery to send
My donations to the cosmos afar

These nothing years haunt me
Like vacant seats at my last requiem
I'm a mortal now
On a wild ship heaving
I close my eyes one last time
So far misunderstood

04. Aviation

Wings are now a part of me
(I'm) Disappearing straight
Into the night alone I'll make my journey

In this life an endless solo flight
Bow thy head and close thy peasant mind

Now comes the deafening roar
Followed by an eternal calm
Silence! silence, the sound of emptiness
The absence of your moaning virgin whore

Sky falls down like a fountain
Washing over me with calming void
If this peace is called loneliness
We were truly meant to stand alone
Meant to stand alone

Blue overhead, since the dawn of man
Heavens follow, wherever we roam
Blue turns black, heavens retreat
Losing a faith in between

What is set in stone, when stone no longer paves your road
When paths are no longer guided by earthly tomes
You too can soar

05. Red Sky Harbor

A pale grey is over head
I'm dragging feet in the sand
It grows inside to return instead
And still, I'll take my chances
Here, alone.

As the sun surely rises I will toil
Beneath the waves
The scent of sea air lingers
In my lungs at the end of the day

This is my dominion
Through clear water I can see
All the past I've been here
Wading through forests of plant-like monstrosities

To think I would ever find
Such riches..
Beneath the oceans wide
Sinking down to the depths of my demise
As the seas turn dark and frightening

Immersed I've been in self-righteous findings
I fade in lieu of reflecting within

High on martian life

My body begs for rest in
This cavern's peaceful eye
Impending death before me
I'll catch my breath before I leave
Somehow I'll press on in spite

It's a vast ocean that I am becoming
I fade in lieu of reflecting within

All I am, is this me?
This shard of earth
Cast from within the darkened sea?
Risen, at last
To drink, the warmth of the sun
Is free

I'm not tired, I'm not afraid
I know.. I'll stay here for a while
I'm not tired, I'm not afraid
I know.. I'll stay here for a while

07. Blood Petals

Sound the siren, the storm has come
Searching for answers posing no significance
To the self
The ritual has run it's malignant fucking course

Forsaken to the core
By the constant cut-throat game of lust
Stow into the underworld
Your pain endowed

Feast on silence
Until the island sinks
Til' the ghosts at bay
Swim the sweet song of revenge
Right down to your soul
Passion flows with revenge

Her glowing eyes
Speak to him
Temptation he can't resist
(He waits for her in suspense)

Tonight the meadows stir with strife..

The dream is over, it's not your fault
You toil in these thoughts so willingly
The dream is over, it's not your fault
I'm wide awake without you

Promise me you won't be so disarming
Oh, how intent
I can see it in your eyes
I would rather be safe than sorry
It's a crying shame that you have turned out insane..

The dream is over, it's not your fault
You toil in these thoughts so willingly
The dream is over, it's not your fault
I'm wide awake without you

Baby tell me a story...
One I haven't heard
Before I end this tale of a spiteful man
Cause' I'll hide inside my mind
If it'll take you to the end
Cause' I'm caught intoxicated
With the sweet liquour of revenge

How could you love as I once had
When all was true in the moment
For love is just a word to you
A tool to lose an opponent, yeahhhhh
He's got her weak singing blood is in the air
Oh, it's in her bloody stair
Yeah, he's got her singing blood is in the air, tonight
Blood is in the air..
Blood is in the air..
