Ulver
Shadows of the Sun
1. Eos
The sun is far away
It goes in circles
Someone dies
Someone lives
In pain
It is burning
Into the thin air
Of the nature
Of a culture
On the dark side
Under the moon
The wolves gather
2. All The Love
We fear the things
We do not understand
The powers
Of good
And evil
Of the world
The past
The future
The promises
The folly
Of those who died
For nothing
Leaving their wives
And their children
For love
The only thing
That makes us human
3. Like Music
I want you
To tell me
Who you are
In your dreams
Who is there
And is it beautiful
Like music
Do you know
If it is a word
Is it love
Does it hurt
Deep inside
Like music
Can you hear it
It is fading
4. Vigil
For all who used to be
And now are
In the dark
Light a candle
And say their name
One last time
Let them go
We will follow
When time comes
To pray for life
To begin again
A flower
Will open
On the grave
5. Shadows Of The Sun
The shadows
Shadows
Of the dead
In the silence
In the night
Close your eyes
And see the stars
The shadows
And tremors
Of the sun
6. Let The Children Go
We hold each other
In the dead of night
And the end
Begins
When innocence dies
In their eyes
Asking us why
Must they die
And live
And love
And life
Goes on
After the sun sets
The time to sleep
Without dreams
We have nothing
7. Solitude
[Black Sabbath cover]
My name it means nothing
my fortune is less
My future is shrouded in dark wilderness
Sunshine is far away, clouds linger on
Everything I possessed - Now they are gone
Oh where can I go to and what can I do?
Nothing can please me only thoughts are of you
You just laughed when I begged you to stay
I've not stopped crying since you went away
The world is a lonely place - you're on your own
Guess I will go home - sit down and moan.
Crying and thinking is all that I do
Memories I have remind me of you
8. Funebre
There is a circle
Around the cross
A flight of steps
Into the earth
A black hole
A string of music
Hung from a willow
Weeping
Over the wood
And the bones
Burning
In memory of
A missing person
An angel
A flight of ravens
Into the sunset
9. What Happened?
Out of nothing
I understand
Who I am
I think
I have been
Here before
I know
What you have done
To the world
Your face
It is in your hands
Like everything
Crying
What happened
To us here
