Star Palace of the Sombre Warrior

Wordless idea becomes perfectly clear enough
Does it make you feel a little sorrier?
Upon the wastelands of fear perceive the rain of tears
That flow from Star Palace of the Sombre Warrior

Theatre of war, you're moved as pieces in a game of chess
As you die of the biblical myth
For the soldier who found an early grave
Is the cry of a child who's lost his way
And people who live from day to day
Their last hope our bitter memories

Land of the bones, plague, fire, suffering
Bring out your dead
The bell tolls, the season brings a change
The sundial is still as a shadow caresses its face
All but the shadow lost in space

If you still have the will to carry on
With your echoes in black holes one step beyond
The boundaries of scientific sane life
The dreams of the spirit long since gone
How do you carry on?

Such a long way to go
We are strangers in strange lands
Such a long way to go
In this world without end

We are but memories in time
Now is all that we can find
We come to find a new day
We come to find a new way
A new day, a new way

For the soldier who found an early grave
Is the cry of a child who's lost his way
And people who live from day to day
Their last hope our bitter memory
