Lyrics — ETHEREAL

The Last Prayer

4:32

Verse I

Tell me now it’s all a lie,
Say it isn’t real
That I dreamed it all because
I loved you too much, still.
Say you left because you just
Fell out of love, please.
Say it so I wait right here like you believed.

Chorus

Can you feel it now as well?
Lying here so close to me,
Holding you like nothing's ever changed?
All this time, I
Only lived my life for myself,
But now I see, with you, a world we could’ve made.

But when it’s dawn,
Please don’t wake me
Don’t pretend like nothing ever was.
One last prayer, one last wish,
To feel your eyes and scent remain with me.
(That one prayer)
(One last wish now)
(That one prayer)
Please don’t ever walk away from me!!!!!!

Instrumental

Repeat Chorus

Can you feel it now as well?
Lying here so close to me,
Holding you like nothing's ever changed?
All this time, I
Only lived my life for myself,
But now I see, with you, a world we could’ve made.

But when it’s dawn,
Please don’t wake me
Don’t pretend like nothing ever was.
One last prayer, one last wish,
To feel your eyes and scent remain with me.
(That one prayer)
(One last wish now)
(That one prayer)
Please don’t ever walk away from me!!!!!

This Is Our Last Goodbye

4:37

Verse I

We both knew it, yeah, the end was coming near
Still, I stood there with no words to hear
As you cried while watching me
Guess goodbye is something just like this
Do I have to say it first like this?
That we weren’t meant to be

Standing with you where the road is fading
Now I turn and walk away
Don’t say that you once loved me too
This is our last goodbye

Chorus

When morning comes, please forget me
Let the sad old days fade away inside your heart
When it's time, you’ll be gone and far from me
In your shadow, I will live endlessly

Verse II

No more sad dreams, I won’t leave them here with you
Just be happy now, that’s all I ask
This is where our story ends
Was it wrong then; was it love that we once knew?
If it is, then let it end like this
Let me say goodbye to you

Standing with you where the road is fading
Now I turn and walk away
Don’t say that you once loved me too
This is our last goodbye

Chorus

Now I hear it; echoes of our last words
Is it tears from you that won’t let me go again?
Like the frozen moonlight in my soul
I will send you off, just as I must

Love is fading, now you're leaving; walk away
Stay behind for your own sake
I can try, I can try
When morning comes, please forget me
Let the sad old days fade away inside your heart
When it's time, you’ll be gone and far from me
In your shadow, I will live endlessly.

Shout

4:52

Verse I

Sink into silence, cold and bitter memories
How can I wash away what still remains in me
Nothing is changing, even peace feels hollow
Falling behind, I’m breaking down again
Tried to forgive it all, tried to see the reason
But nothing made it clear
Wish I could throw away all the bitter echoes
And make it through a single day in peace

Verse II

Will roots still grow inside the weight that pulls me down
Even with all I learned, I still can't make a sound
Living inside the same old rigid framing
Trying to bend myself has worn me out
Blaming the world again, but I know it's useless
There’s no more point in that
With just a quiet hope for a new tomorrow
I’ll try again, no matter what it takes

Chorus

(Shout out)
I won’t be afraid now
(Shout out)
Louder now
All of us; keep on running, eyes ahead
Racing toward the dream
(Shout out)
Let it out
(Shout out)
I will never walk away now
I won’t be afraid now
(Shout out)
Louder now
All of us; keep on running, eyes ahead
Racing toward the dream
(Shout out)
Let it out

Instrumental

Verse III

Up in the open sky
Still there's a dream I can't erase from inside me
Deep in the breath I breathe
Even the pain will turn to light and guide me

Chorus - repeat with same structure

Blaming the world again, but I know it's useless
There’s no more point in that
With just a quiet hope for a new tomorrow
I’ll try again, no matter what it takes
(Shout out)
I won’t be afraid now
(Shout out)
Louder now
All of us; keep on running, eyes ahead
Racing toward the dream
(Shout out)
Let it out
(Shout out)
I will never walk away now
I won’t be afraid now
(Shout out)
Louder now
All of us; keep on running, eyes ahead
Racing toward the dream
(Shout out)
Let it out

Still I try to stand tall
All the memories crowd the streets

Freedom

4:47

Ah, Yeah!

Verse

Searching for my way, I made it here somehow
Clouds that veiled the moonlight, torn as they passed
I face the strong wind

Verse

Sleep would never find me, so I danced alone
All the past I carried danced around me
Bare and bold we danced in silent memory
I am free~

Chorus

Spread the wings that hid beneath your chest, don’t fear what they’ll see now
I just want to soar across the endless sky
Even storms won’t shake me, I won’t run away
All I ever wanted, I will claim it all
I will live in freedom now

Solo

Verse

Sleep would never find me, so I danced alone
All the past I carried danced around me

I just want to soar across the endless sky
Even storms won’t shake me, I won’t run away

Reason

4:22

Intro Instrumental

Verse I

Tears I’ve tried to hold now fall down,
So this moment won’t feel so hard.
Like it never meant a single thing,
Now it’s time; just walk away from me.

Pre Chorus

But if it’s for you,
Though it goes against what I wanted,
Standing here before a cold goodbye
That I never wished would happen

Chorus

Please just promise me you’ll live in peace,
Far enough that I can’t reach you.
You should stay in days of happiness and light,
That’s the only way.
If you ever miss me,
Think of times I hurt more than you
Hold on to those memories.
Keep only that in your heart.
If you have to let me go…

Solo

Bridge

Don’t turn back again,
Don’t you hesitate
You’re the one who wanted to leave.

Chorus

Please just promise me you’ll live in peace,
Far enough that I can’t reach you.
Even this small, fading love I gave
Can be lost and left behind.
But if one day
All my longing reaches out to you
And your eyes begin to fill with me again…
Then you’ll come back, you’ll return to me.

I Can't Help but Say Goodbye

5:13

Verse I

I won’t stay to watch you turn and leave me—
Not if silence makes it easier.
Let me be the one to fold the ending,
Even if I never asked for this.

Verse II

No, I’m not prepared to hold this calmly,
These aren’t tears I meant to show you now.
Still, if going makes things clearer,
Then go on—I won’t call you back—oh...

Chorus

So I’ll let you drift, no need to answer.
Everything has edges we outgrow—oh...
Still, if you go, choose someplace I won’t follow,
Far enough for memory to slow.

Verse III

What you were, not what you said, is staying—
Brefth you left that lingered in the air.
Time won’t cleanse, it only rearranges,
And forgetting isn’t always fair—oh...

Chorus

So I’ll let you drift, no need to answer.
Everything has edges we outgrow—oh...
Still, if you go, choose someplace I won’t follow,
Far enough I won’t mistake the door.

Bridge

There were words I held but never offered,
And a version of you I still keep—
Aaaah, AAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!

Final Chorus

So I’ll let you drift, no need to answer.
Everything has edges we outgrow—oh...
Still, if you go, choose someplace I won’t follow,
Far enough I won’t mistake the door.

Outro

I once told myself this wouldn’t linger—
That we never had enough to last.
Now I know that small things echo longer
Than the ones we swore would hold us fast.

Make It Go Away

5:02

Verse I

Lies I see on your lips again,
Words I know I can't believe.
It would hurt me less if you just said nothing
So I won't hate you now.
Go away~
Go away~

Verse II

Don’t pretend, no more excuse,
Fake tears, I’m so tired of them.
You’ll just smile for him like nothing’s wrong
Say it’s easy, then just leave.
All this time, I played along, believed in you,
But my love for you is fading now like bubbles in the rain.

Chorus

Just like that
Make it go away, so far away,
Get yourself out of my life.
I can’t go back to the love we had
Now it’s over, done.

Verse III

Love is gone, and you are gone,
Now I finally can breathe again.
Watch me now, I’ll forget
All of it and live a brand new day.

Verse IV

Nothing new, girls like you are everywhere.
Don’t you worry, I blew you off just like dust in the air.

Chorus

Just like that
Make it go away, so far away,
Get yourself out of my life.
I can’t go back to the love we had
Now it’s over, done.

Bridge

Love is gone, and you are gone,
Now I finally can breathe again.
Watch me now, I’ll forget
Everything we were…

Bridge II

I will get through this,
Even if I miss you sometimes
I won’t fall apart, not for a love like this.

Breakdown

Even if you beg and cry and hold me,
Even if you’re reaching for my hand
I don’t have the heart to love you now,
So please just turn around.

Final Chorus

Make it go away, so far away
Don’t come back, don’t search for me again.
I’ll erase the crime of loving you
And start to live again.

Castle of Eternity

4:08

Intro

Verse I

In the castle where time sleeps and shadows fall,
Even if a thousand years may pass, I’ll long
Endlessly for you
If you call my name, I’ll wake and rise again
Even if you live beyond the stars so far,
Still I’ll come to you

Pre-Chorus

If your tears begin to fall, they bloom like flowers for me
If I cry and close my eyes, then in your world they’ll

Chorus

Turn to rain, they’ll turn to rain
Wash away your weary face, the tears that you’ve been hiding
Turn to wind, I’ll turn to wind
Wrap around your tired soul, and hold your shadow softly

Verse

If I’m born again and search to find your face,
You will go to find me first, beyond that distant far-off place

Bridge

** As a star, as falling snow
** I will wait here, I will wait here

Chorus

Turn to rain, they’ll turn to rain
Wash away your weary face, the tears that you’ve been hiding
Turn to wind, I’ll turn to wind
Wrap around your tired soul, and hold your shadow softly

Even fate can’t stop me till the day you come to me
Love remains, though love may fade (Aaaaah!)
Even if I lose you twice (Aaaaah!), this love will never end (Aaaaaaaaaaaah!)

There's a point of no return

Don't let me downnnnnn!!!! Aaaaah!!!!

The Life

4:47

Instrumental

You feel the pain but never gonna find yourself a cure
You feel so sad but you have nobody to share
You see the vice but never gonna a find someone to blame

This is the life you carry on

Try to run to get to the other world
Don't you know what it's like

Try to hide from where you're living today
Just like living in hell

(Time)Why don't you save some
(Life)Too short to be living
(Pace)You have to control yourself the clock is never gonna
stop
(Fight)It's only for your right
(Win)You can't afford to lose

You Never think of looking back

You got the rage inside of you but you only pretend
If you keep this you're gonna die
There's no turning back
Yeeeaaaaah!!!!!!

Guitar Solo

You need a friend but never gonna find someone to trust
You see so many people with evil inside
You want the truth but they wanna cover up with lies

This is the life you carry on

Try to run to get to the other world
Don't you know what it's like

Try to hide from where you're living today
Just like living in hell

(Time)Why don't you save some
(Life)Too short to be living
(Pace)You have to control yourself the clock is never gonna
stop
(Fight)It's only for your right
(Win)You can't afford to lose

You Never think of looking back

Nightingale

5:29

Intro

[Verse 1] Do not sing, nightingale, By this cell, cold and pale, At my prayer, do not stay, Nightingale, fly away.

[Verse 2] Many years, I have known, In this world, all alone, Suffered much, through the years, Finding joy, only tears.

[Verse 3] Now I fear, what is near, Both the fate, and the peer, Sharing grief, and my swell, With this small, narrow cell.

[Verse 4] Fly away, nightingale, To the lands, far and frail, Go in haste, to the shore, Of my home, evermore.

Instrumental

[Verse 5] Whistle soft, to the air, Of the soul’s, deep despair, Thinking back, on the past, Bitter tears, falling fast.

[Verse 6] I would leave, all behind, Days of old, from my mind, Now I love, only these, Simple beads, for my knees.

[Verse 7] I would leave, light of day, Deceptive, in its way, I have sworn, here to stay, Till my end, fades away.

Solo

[Verse 8] Come again, nightingale, When I end, this my trail, On the mound, of my grave, Rest your wings, be you brave.

[Outro] Do not sing, nightingale, By this cell, cold and pale, At my prayer, Do not stay... Nightingale - fly awaaaay!

Verse I

breathy female vocals

I don't know where this road will carry me
Where am I meant to go now
The midday sun comes pouring over me
Like it could swallow all my sorrow

Pre-Chorus

Should I go searching for you again
Nowhere in this world to find you
To you, I am already a name that slowly died
A stranger you no longer recognize

How long will I wander through this ache alone
What words could ever make me forget you
Every road that I can see still leads me to you
How can I ever say goodbye, when you were the whole of my life

Bill

4:38

Verse

A little man down by the parking lot he said
"I think the world is out to get me"
Stole my money can't see my way
And left me here with nothing, nothing
Well he left me here with nothing, nothing

Some old jackets wore color all time walking around looking for roaches all the time

He says beware of the CIA
Framing you with something
Something
Framing you with something
Something

Father is gone
Mother is gone
They left before I told them it
It hurts in my heart
That they'll never know my pain
That they'll never feel my shame
That they'll never see me again

Now that Bill's become my friend
He's alright

And there you will find
Nothing to hide
No reason to run

Father is gone
Mother is gone

Clouds that veiled the moonlight, torn as they passed
