"Eternal Slumber" lyrics

"Eternal Slumber"

The nightfall has arrived
Descent of the sun
An invitation for the dark
An hour for the shadows to thrive
Descent of the sun
Lights absence pure and stark

Defend the sleep
Slumber as deep as the waters
Shelter and keep safe
The dream eternal
Defend the sleep
Slumber as deep as the waters
Shelter and keep safe
The soul eternal

The scythe is just one step behind
Until the ascending sun
Brings the flames of the salvation

Weather the storm
These hostile hours before the dawn
Before the spark that sets alight
Ignites, ignites the horizon

Defend the sleep
Slumber as deep as the waters
Shelter and keep safe
The dream eternal
Defend the sleep
Slumber as deep as the waters
Shelter and keep safe
The soul eternal
