Is this the view
From fallen angel's eyes
It's time to dry the tears
Like something new
Far better than the lies
Of honor, pride and fears
I will return
More stronger than before
This is my chance
To grow beyond the past
I know I'll burn
I burn for you much more
I pay the price
I know now it will last
[Bridge]
Sacrificed of that i had inside
Shed it all, my senseless fate of pride
[Chorus]
Through the fires of the night
From the ashes out of sight
Wide away
So I will ride
On dirty wings
Through the darkness of the night
From the ashes to the light
Wide away
Now i will ride
On dirty wings
On dirty wings
I never knew
This choice was in my mind
It never felt so right
What can I do?
A man is sometimes blind
Gimme a chance
And be with me tonight
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
Dear Tobias Sammet,
Please give me the strength to carry on doing what I love most.. to stare death, defeat and agony in the face and walk on fighting.. on this long, cold and windy road that so many have traversed and are still travelling on. I pray that one day, we will meet and I can express my gratitude for the incalculable inspiration that you have given me all these years through your music (as well as your nonsensical brand of humour). Thank you, my kindred brother.
P.S: Happy Birthday, Tobi =)
