Sonata Arctica - Fly with the Black Swan lyrics
[Sonata Arctica - Fly with the Black Swan lyrics]
Once I got caught in an avalanche
I must have died when a Black Swan flew to
The rescue and cried
An offer I could not refuse
Now I'm working on the other side
Well, I flew with the bird then
We flew all night i got to see my prison
From a thousand feet high
Buy me a drink, and I tell you
'bout the Black Swan
Must keep those black wings folded
Until the time is right
To find the one whom I can steal
A soul from, to buy more time
Must keep my secrets untold, until
The wrongs are right
The only one I could deceive i buy my time
Need you to fly on the Black Swan
The date is set, we all must face it
Door to door, seeking salvation
I must, for die I wish not
My hopes stay afloat when you give in to the
Silver lining, sharp and so cold
Anger fades into a vague smile
You see, I'm ready to do it for everyone
I stabbed you in the back
Who will save you now
Don't worry, I've done this before
It'll hurt like hell and leave you sore
No use escaping
Hold on to your ticket of gold
And close your eyes
One day I know you will sell your soul
And trade all you are for silver and gold
You'll get an odd advice from a stranger
Take it, from me, with love
Once I was in love with someone like you
Engaged to be whole
Got torn out of your memories
Covered in snow
I need to find a way to pass
On the gift I once received
I'm ready to face it
I'll take my chances, if I am
Returning to the deep
Dark snow grave, so be it
I should not rest now, but forever!
I'll feed the ferryman's creed
With an empty promise for my lost soul
Must keep those black wings folded
Until the darkest night
I steal a soul from you to buy me some time
Pouring boiling water on a
Solid frozen flower
Black nailed finger of the creator
I take a bow, thank for this opportunity
But, I've given the last ride for
All those close to kin
Must keep those black wings folded
Until the time is right
To find the one whom I can steal
A soul from, to buy more time
Must keep my secrets untold, until
The wrongs are right
The only one I could deceive
I served my time
Need you to fly with the Black Swan
