Green fields now painted black,

I can't go on and I can't go back

Long lost days of the past

Have to go over there, can I go over there at last?

Love, Lust, things that I've lost

Running from shadows but at what cost?

Trace far, back to my life

What was before the rain, what was it like before the strife

In the eyes of my dream I can look deep

And cherish the memory

Meadows grow back embraced in my story...

Home, friends, things that I miss

Snow on the mountains and skies of bliss

Strange tears guiding my way

Could it be happiness?

Could it be really here to stay?

In the eyes of my agony memories are written in stone

Finally I embrace them as my own

Through fire and torches of pain

I am the one who made it through the rain

The echoes are songs in my ear

I am the one who rose above the fear

Through fire and torches in pain

I am the one who made it through the rain

Look up, the sky is now clear

I am the one who fought so hard and made it here

Slow, fast, scars that run deep

Grasped like a treasure for us to keep

Blood, sweat, just flesh and bone

All of my choices were not in vain

Now they're mine alone

In the eyes of my agony...

Through fire and torches of pain...

And though the reaper awaits and the clock towers chime

I see the fire put out by the sands of time
