lyrics
Wintery nocturne melodies,
A voice fleeting as a whisper on the wind,
The words dancing in the frigid air,
The night is still,
The meaning is lost within,
Now her light has fled from me,
I look to the heavens to reveal and astral sky,
A sheet of velvet steel,
A sable vail from which stars can yield no light.
Walk with me through this gate,
A threshold lies in waiting,
I hold the key, but still the lock evades me,
Burden shared by our kin,
A duty spared by none,
A game, greater to earn than to win,
One for all and all as one.
Left alone with no resource,
I scan the night to find the other vagrant siblings of both Choice and Chance,
We share a charge we all must come to bare,
We've come to face the greatest trial,
There is a gate and a dawn that waits behind,
As fellow men we must meet our fate,
And find a future befitted to us all.
Walk with me through this gate,
A threshold lies in waiting,
I hold the key, but still the lock evades me,
Burden shared by our kin,
A duty spared by none,
A game, greater to earn than to win,
One for all and all as one.
The sun shines bright,
For the battle is lost and won,
All hope restored and open door,
But the journey has just begun,
For if progress is a man's distinctive mark,
Then brotherhood must be the guide to lead us in the dark.
