Description "Some nights, alone, he thinks of her, and some nights, alone, she thinks of him. Some night these thoughts, separated by miles and time zones, occur at the same objective moment, and they are connected without ever knowing it."
_________________________________________
In the cold misty morning, gleaming rays awake the dawn...
Here I stand - a stranger in this land, does your conscience betray you?
falling from grace - feel the sun on my face... does desire still hold true?

Mystified by her beauty - does the hunter pity his prey?
Under starless skies all love must die and fade away...

Take my hand - divine or damned, make a stand, seize the day.
Yours or mine, damned of divine, draw the line, come what may...

Looking down from ethereal skies...
Silent crystalline tears I cry.
For all must say their last goodbye - to paradise...

My yearning is silenced by angelic skin of white
Love conquers all for heaven's fall... this faithful night.
Yours or mine - damned of divine, draw the line - serpentine...

Love is a tragedy... all that I have, all that I'll ever need... is right here inside
Let the winds of freedom be my guide...


Looking down from ethereal skies...
Silent crystalline tears I cry.
For all must say their last goodbye - to paradise...


Looking down from ethereal skies...
Silent crystalline tears I cry.
For all must say their last goodbye - to paradise...
Say goodbye, goodbye, hold on!

...so I've cheated and I've lied...been the victim of foolish pride.
and I've begged and I've crawled, and I've battled and bled for it all. Now I'll savor the downfall...

...of Paradise.


Looking down from ethereal skies...
Silent crystalline tears I cry.
For all must say their last goodbye - to paradise...
to Paradise...

I think today is the coldest day of the year so far. I don't even know how I actually managed to paint this in only 2 hours, considerind how cold and hard my hands are.
Anyway, this time of the year reminds me of a lot of things, there's still a lot of them that remain untouched most of the time. I guess that's why things like this happen once in a while. Some time, something will pop out of our constant effort to hold things still where they are.
This song, too, reminds me of this time of the year, and I decided to use it as the mainly inspiration to paint this submission.
Even tough the meanings behind it will be kept for myself, all of you are free to understand and feel it in your own way.
Enjoy.

Sim
Queria saber como era o instrumental. Não me arrependi

A voz é belíssima, os instrumentos tocam um ritmo envolvente, e a letra é profunda...
