Ebony Throne - Lyrics by Candlemass


Lyrics
Where's the muses cavethe isle of the dead
The sign of Eph is goneso is the sun
Tired and confused
I sail into the night
With the devil at my shoulder
I'll be fine
I ride the straits of darknesseveryday
No light will lead my wayfrom my pain
Drowned in tideless poolsno haven for my mind
In grief I meet the stormeye to eye
On the ebony thronelies the dragonstone
My voyage to vanityoh, take me there
To the ebony throne
I followed the sirensong* No enlightened societycan bring me back
In the maelstrom of mindslike a will-o-the
=wisp
I sail on ...I sail the depths of apathyalone
The world is fading
I'm a long way from home
Where's the muses cavethe island of the dead
The sign of Eph is goneso is the sun* No progressive technology
