A Song for Severian
All is not as it seems, Severian
Like all that was to never be is lost to the past
Gone as if in a dream
The dragon devours the heart of the sun
This aeon is dust at the fading of day
A thousand ages in thy sight
Time is closing in on you
They're watching you now, the heralds on high
For judgment's awaiting the one who's cloaked in the night
How could you have foreseen the ghost of your deeds
A shadow through centuries past, echoing into eternity
So banish your fears, harden your heart
And shield your spirit from the storm
What's done has been done, but you must go on
So each man shall carry his sins
In service of hope, we're awaiting the dawn
Sufficient is thine arm alone
As long as death should spare you
Carry on
Like all that was to never be is lost to the past
Gone as if in a dream
The dragon devours the heart of the sun
This aeon is dust at the fading of day
A thousand ages in thy sight
Time is closing in on you
They're watching you now, the heralds on high
For judgment's awaiting the one who's cloaked in the night
How could you have foreseen the ghost of your deeds
A shadow through centuries past, echoing into eternity
So banish your fears, harden your heart
And shield your spirit from the storm
What's done has been done, but you must go on
So each man shall carry his sins
In service of hope, we're awaiting the dawn
Sufficient is thine arm alone
As long as death should spare you
Carry on
