Song | A Thousand Towers White |
Artist | Dragonland |
Album | Under the Grey Banner |
I raise up my head and gaze upon silvery seashoreswith the sand on my feet and with the sun on my back | |
For days the coast leads my journey shining in the misty dew | |
I seeThere, a thousand spires | |
Glowing like fire in the sun | |
I see them rising o'er these open plains | |
And I know | |
I shall remember foreverhow | |
I saw a thousand towers white | |
When young | |
I was told | |
Of a city of might and of honour | |
An empire's crown, as powerful as it was feared | |
And now as | |
I stand before her | |
I set my eyes upon a waking dream | |
There, a thousand spires | |
Gleaming like ice in the sun | |
I see them rising o'er these open plains | |
And I know | |
I shall remember foreverhow | |
I saw a thousand towers white | |
Mirrorlike gates stretch before meblazing serene in the dawn | |
Split open for vast lines of many men | |
I gaze beyond in bewilderment | |
Shattered hearts and dreamscrushed by grievous tyranny | |
Crumbling homes and screamsamong corrupted industry[Solo: Mörck] | |
A sinister reignbrother is turned against brotherirrational fear enslaved the dwarves and the elves | |
What lies beyond such opression?shining towers cast a shade on me | |
There, a thousand spires | |
Glowing like fire in the sunbut | |
I see no honour in these broken menyet | |
I know I will remember foreverhow | |
I saw a thousand towers white |
I raise up my head and gaze upon silvery seashoreswith the sand on my feet and with the sun on my back | |
For days the coast leads my journey shining in the misty dew | |
I seeThere, a thousand spires | |
Glowing like fire in the sun | |
I see them rising o' er these open plains | |
And I know | |
I shall remember foreverhow | |
I saw a thousand towers white | |
When young | |
I was told | |
Of a city of might and of honour | |
An empire' s crown, as powerful as it was feared | |
