Ulver - Shadows Of The Sun lyrics



Tracks



01. Eos

The sun is far away
It goes in circles
Someone dies
Someone lives
In pain
It is burning
Into the thin air
Of the nature
Of a culture
On the dark side
Under the moon
The wolves gather

02. All The Love

We fear the things
We do not understand

The powers

Of good
And evil

Of the world

The past
The future

The promises

The folly
Of those who died

For nothing

Leaving their wives
And their children

For love

The only thing
That makes us human

03. Like Music

I want you
To tell me

Who you are
In your dreams

Who is there
And is it beautiful

Like music

Do you know
If it is a word

Is it love

Does it hurt
Deep inside

Like music

Can you hear it
It is fading

04. Vigil

For all who used to be

And now are
In the dark

Light a candle
And say their name

One last time
Let them go

We will follow
When time comes

To pray for life
To begin again

A flower
Will open

On the grave

05. Shadows Of The Sun

The shadows

Shadows
Of the dead

In the silence
In the night

Close your eyes
And see the stars

The shadows
And tremors

Of the sun

06. Let The Children Go

We hold each other
In the dead of night

And the end
Begins

When innocence dies
In their eyes

Asking us why
Must they die

And live
And love

And life
Goes on

After the sun sets
The time to sleep

Without dreams
We have nothing

07. Solitude

My name it means nothing my fortune is less
My future is shrouded in dark wilderness
Sunshine is far away, clouds linger on
Everything I posessed - Now they are gone

Oh where can I go to and what can I do?
Nothing can please me only thoughts are of you
You just laughed when I begged you to stay
I've not stopped crying since you went away

The world is a lonely place - you're on your own
Guess I will go home - sit down and moan.
Crying and thinking is all that I do
Memories I have remind me of you

08. Funebrae

There is a circle
Around the cross

A flight of steps
Into the earth

A black hole

A string of music
Hung from a willow

Weeping

Over the wood
And the bones

Burning

In memory of
A missing person

An angel

A flight of ravens
Into the sunset

09. What Happened?

Out of nothing

I understand
Who I am

I think

I have been
Here before

I know

What you have done
To the world

Your face

It is in your hands
Like everything

Crying

What happened
To us here
