lyrics

The candles are lit
The hearth still warm with dying embers
Burning herbs and incense upon the brazier
The dark sets in with youth and vigour
To stretch it's arms out
Chasing away the Sun

The empire of night is young, but growing longer
And in it's darkness we see it's hidden beauty
The stars they dance in ever growing circles
But we are deaf to the cosmic symphony

Embrace the ceremony of the seven stars
Daughters of the cosmos, sisters of the void
A tower of flame in winter

Witness the ceremony of the seven stars
Daughters of the cosmos, sisters of the void
A tower of flame in winter

A red Sun rises, this day is one of power
Before frost and ice sink their talons deep
To hold us in the frozen spell of sleep

The sky is blood and fire
Last breath before the flesh gives way,
To reveal the bones beneath
And broken crooked teeth

The night persists growing further into day
Autumn now in flame, soon to silence
Drowning in the rain

Marked by stone, procession of the Sun
The cosmic cycle turns
The fire forever burns
