Twilight
Karlahan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Awaiting for the shadow my heart is beating weak
On this coming eternal night my spirit is now in doubt
Forever in this place my mind will find a place
Where I shall escape from this darkened reality

We wait now
Below the sky
Twilight comes

Sun is hiding beyond my fear

Who can tell now my uncertain destiny?
Only warm fires will talk for me
A starry sky is now calling for me
In this twilight another dimension appears

We wait now
Below the sky
Twilight comes
We march with our feigned pride

Deadly land like the most frozen mountain peak
Who knows now, who knows Twilight?
Should I believe in my life in these times?
Beside the fire I see now forgotten dreams

We wait now
Below the sky

Twilight comes
The essence of mankind is found
