This Burning Day - Forgotten Traces lyrics

I raise my head... Above the fields Weary clouds descend upon me So long to all... I ever cherished Broken remnants lie... Dust is black, soaked with blood... And their accusing eyes are fixed on me Pillars of the earth seem to crack And now I know there's no coming back... I'm past the point of no return! All the faces All the smiles For... Gotten traces Of what once once so... dear Forgotten traces Of what was once mine I mourn For all my dead and lament the unborn... This battle left their bodies scattered, broken, numb and scorned With all my banners torn I walk among the red... I never stayed The spirit of my homeland beckons me I walked away From all the things I held so dear For one brief moment The wind whispers of hope And promises to carry me away And then In spite of everything I spiral through the clouds Desperate to fly So I ascend The ground falls away! The ground falls away! Until I start to fall... (fall away, fall away) Again I see... there's no one here but me Man Martyr Fool Father Son Soldier Alone I break down and... Suffer... for all my blind ambitions! With all My banners torn I walk among the red... My time has pa**ed and though I last I feel as though I'm dead I mourn for all the scorned and lament the unborn... I never stayed The spirit of my homeland beckons me I walked away From all the things I held so dear All the faces All the smiles For... gotten traces Of what was once mine The spirit of my homeland beckons me
