"Eurydice (Don't Look Back)" lyrics

A voice beneath the mountain sings
Through halls of ash and shattered kings
The wind forgets the names it knew
The path ahead is split in two
The walls still bleed from the ancient vows
A shadow crown on unseen brows
The mirrors speak with tongues of glass
The time walks backward as you pass

The dark is close, but dares not speak
A breath behind, a voice too weak

Don't look back
The stars are blind, the veil is thin
Don't look back
When tears will fall the night breaks in
Don't look back
Daylight ahead, the dawn so near
Just one more breath
A voice behind, no faint to hear
A cold look back
Don't look back

The light ahead is cold and fake
A painted sun on glass that breaks
The ground is gone, the air is tight
He walks on words and bleeds from sight
His promise, carved in smoke and song
Has turned to chains he's dragged too long
A whisper stirs her distant name
But every echo sounds the same

Don't look back
The pact is made, the veil is thin
Don't look back
The oath still binds what lies within
Don't look back
Daylight ahead, the dawn so near
Just one more breath
A voice behind, no faint to hear
A cold look back

The dark is close, but dares not speak
A breath behind, a voice too weak

Don't look back
Don't look back
Don't look back

Don't look back
But still, he turned, the curse was sealed
Don't look back
Her final cry, forever veiled
Don't look back
Her soul was lost, he followed in
Just one last breath
Now silence reigns where songs have been

Don't look back
But still, he turned, the curse was sealed
Don't look back
Her final cry, forever veiled
A cold look back, oh
