Magic

(album: Viribus Unitis - 2021)

I have looked for answers
Wherever I did roam
I traveled far, and traveled wide
Yet I have found no home
This magic keeps me company
Keeps me safe and keeps me warm
It is guiding like a beacon
Giving shelter from the storm

I light a fire
In the coldness of the wild
It's burning higher
And their eyes look on beguiled

Light the sky, see through the mind's eye
Ride the rainbow rising up high
To the light where we belong
And there's magic in every song
Ride the sky, together we fly
Through the darkness that we defy
And we won't be apart
By the magic of our heart

I have damned the wise men
I have cursed and I deplore
I've broken vows and cast these spells
I'm desperate to the core
I'm looking for salvation
There's no redemption here
There's darkness and damnation
And sorrow born from fear

I curse the fire
That burns in people's hearts
And I desire
The power of dark arts

Tame the night by dark raven's flight
Curse the heavens and true love denied
To the shadows we belong
And there's magic in every song
Ride the sky, unraveled we fly
Into darkness, we can't defy
And you tear me apart
With the magic of your heart

Light the sky, see through the mind's eye
Ride the rainbow rising up high
To the light where we belong
And there's magic in every song
Ride the sky, together we fly
Through the darkness that we defy
And we won't be apart
By the magic of our heart
