7th Order – The Lake Of Memory lyrics

By the light of the fire
You watch the snowflakes falling
It's the plight of desire
Into despair you've fallen

While you look for a reason
An explanation for why we are
Caught in perpetual seasons
Drifting alone through a sea of stars

In the fullness of time, I found that
All the choices are mine
I will decide my own destiny
In the fullness of time

Into the heart of the sun
The final journey's just begun
And while we're looking back on our lives
I'l be right there to wipe those tears from
Your eyes

Now please consider these answers
Let us dispense with confusion
The king, the beggar, the dancer
The changing face of illusion

Lingering questions, they slip away like a winters night
Replaced by solemn perceptions
New understandings of wrong and right

In the fullness of time, I found that
All the choices are mine
I will decide my own destiny
In the fullness of time

We lose the fear, and find the secret
I'll turn the tables and take a stand
I won't be taken in
By a sleight of hand

I'll raise my hand against the powers
Rally the troops and seize the tower
Throw open wide the gate
On the Armageddon hour

I'm telling you now
Let's get it on, they're gonna stand down
Open wide the gate
On the Armageddon hour

And once the story's told
We've crossed the last threshold
The wheels begin to turn and
The fire of passion burns

Ah, we'll share eternity
Ah, the lake of memory

And once we've found the force
We'll reunite of course
I can feel the time is right
We'll walk into the light
Ah, we'll share eternity
Ah, the lake of memory
Ah, we'll share eternity
Ah, the lake of memory
