lyrics

DAEDALUS


My mind seems to be separated
Split in a thousand pieces
Half is left
Half is gone
And how could I believe
That he could have reached
Close to the sun
To the sun

I must not allow this to happen
Gliding away no wave goodbye
With the time the boy began to soar
Towards to the blazing sun
You tear down what I become

He's too close to the sun
Finds himself along the run
An act of will again
Time to be restored

He's too close to the sun
Finds himself along the run
My dear the only one
Who was born to be ignored

The time has come to send him on his way

In the long view I cannot stay

In a silent night he waits
A thousand thoughts
Become his life
The meaning still remains
While he struggles to survive

He’s shivering and he’s screaming
The blazing sun is out to call
The fool will stay a fool
And the king will fall

Sure, he will mess up simply said
The tragedy is going to take its place
I can't stand those lethargic ways
“Oh, am I just moaning to myself?”
While we’re on it
Face to face
I’ll take the crown
And the king will fall
The fool will stay a fool
And the king will fall
He will fall

At night
I cried a thousand times
Abandoning humankind
You will take my boy from me
Take this prophecy

He's too close to the sun
Finds himself along the run
An act of will again
Time to be restored

He's too close to the sun
Finds himself along the run
My dear the only one
Who was born to be ignored

That realm of independence
Lies ahead
No more tears to shed

You risk all
Consequences
Rising high
You have to continue your story of life

That realm of independence
Believe me it lies ahead
And there is no tear to shed

At night
I cried a thousand times

Abandoning humankind
You will take my boy from me

In all those nights

I cried a thousand times

Abandoning the humankind
Its prophecy

He is too close to the sun
Finds himself along the run
My dear the only one

Syntension image

Syntension Jena, Germany

Syntension is a metal band with a twist. If your story is extra-ordinary, your music should be. If something awkward happens, why put it in a neat regular song structure? Syntension set out to avoid rock clichés, knock people out of their music listening routine and make them think again. There is a time for easy-listening, and there is a time for what-the-fuck-was-that?! This is Progressive Metal ... more
