Brief Is the Flame - Bethzaida

Travelling this strange and dark dimension

Awakened by the powers of the night

On insanity’s path I saw redemption

Now I only see with the moon’s eye

Brief is the flame

Burning bright for a moment

And then never to be seen again

All my life I lived in the night

I found comfort out there

All my life I lived in the night

I thought I had nothing to fear

As I gaze into the night

I see two figures sublime

As I gaze into the night

I die a second time

For a moment I stepped into the moonlight

At last… I behold my nemesis

The two cursed figures dissapearing once again

The shadowless vulture… the carcass of no hope

As I gaze into the night

Too late to realise

As I gaze into your eyes

All they told were lies

River cold, if I could be like you, flowing in the dark of the night

Black and lonely you are like my soul immortal

Without meaning, but in the great sea your journey ends

But even then you never die
