The things that were and that which is yet to come Is melting together as one Through a river it streams in a colour I haven't yet seen As clear as the day Through dreams I'm awake But in this river I drown From suffering it rains Heavy lies the burden of things yet to pass I can not foresee how dark the dusk Will be how solemn the skies will seem I already know to what end this will come For how many nights the earth will Bleed the son of my son harvest the sin In rebirth of time in the chaos of my mind I sacrifice myself to myself and in death I planted the seed I know that I'll die but it's at dawn that I'm slain And the coming storm from skies that is open wide But it's not of my end that I speak By the river it grows through suffering in the rain Nurtured by the past present and that to come I've always known that I'd die It's for you this river streams In colours i've not yet seen I see how this will end I've seen that which can not come to be When the river breaks its endless stream Through a river it streams But In this river I drown I sacrifice myself and in death I planted a seed
