lyrics

The night was coming on
We flew beyond the wall
Above the things that crawl
Until the fires of dawn

Angels or demons as you will

Spirit of the flowers passing by
Tearing down your towers
None resist her power
Nothing but a shadow in the sky

They raise a wall of stone
And tramp upon the earth
In challenge to their birth
They live and die alone

Trapped in a lonely book of runes

Spirit of the flowers passing by
Tearing down your towers
None resist her power
Nothing but a shadow in the sky

Waiting for the flames
You always knew would come
And now they strike you dumb
To speak your secret name

Easy to lean into it now

Spirit of the flowers passing by
Something on the breeze
Suddenly it's easy
You don't even think to wonder why

Spirit of the flowers passing by
Tearing down your towers
None resist her power
Nothing but a shadow in the sky
