Crown of Glory Songtext

von Virgin Steele

Bury me beside the endless sea, raise my ashes to the wind
Remember things I conquered in my time, quench my funeral
Pyre with wine
Open your eyes and see me, running faster, running far
Open your heart and feel me, catch the light beyond the starts
Flesh and blood affirm the freedom's gain
Are we born to live again?
I'll never die while the light races over my head,
I can see where we are
I will defy no respite from the challenge of war,
Crown of glory unscarred
Gaze at the sun unblinking, go where only eagles dare
Strike now while life is in you
Before the darkness eats your soul
Touch me now and feel your strenght return
Speak the word within the word
I'll never die while the light races over my head,
I can see where we are
Why must you cry for the life you are leaving behind,
Crown of glory unscarred
What was forbidden now is open
The golden apples of the sun
All that's alive consider holy, holy, holy
Body and soul are reconciled
And heaven and hell remember their love,
And every road leads me to you
To truth
I'm watching you now, I'm watching the signs,
I watch as the old false reason dies
I see with new sight the infinite night
Drunk on the wine of Paradise
I challenge the nine in Heaven divine, the Crown and the
Glory all are mine
No longer denied with Eve as my bride the doors to the
Kingdom open wide
And every end is a beginning, victory waits within the fire.
I'll never die while the light races over my head,
I can see where we are
I will defy no respite from the phantoms of war, Crown of
Glory unscarred
Bury me beside the endless sea, raise my ashes to the wind...
