Beneath The Sky

from Welcome to the Revolution by Kyp Harness

lyrics

BENEATH THE SKY

The north wind blows so cruel when you’re alone
And the streets are long and empty when you’ve got no place to go
Time slips through your fingers as the sky grows black with night
The doors close all around you as the pale moon rises high
And you stumble in your shadow as a nightingale flies by
To some restless paradise beyond the stars

I have wandered long and faraway from home
I’ve crept beneath the sky and fallen midst this broken stone
I feel the thunder I’ve inherited and I see the dark remains
Of every mighty city lying broken in the rain
Where the voices of the dead still echo
with a whispering unknown strength
In the still air lying silent ’cross the hills

The sun shines on the rivers running free
The clouds are rolling in their slumber with the motions of the sea
Below, the faces that I meet are hesitant and dark
In that place where each must sacrifice what’s closest to his heart
The price you pay for loving beauty
marks you an outlaw from the start
On the run forever in a foreign land

In the night the bells are ringing in their towers
Heard by no-one as they toll and fade and mark each passing hour
As a vicious fog rolls silently across the fevered breast
Of every sleeping citizen in his blinded restlessness
Their smoky history enfolds me, I must continue without rest
To where my love lies waiting for me far way
