Petalstorm

 I love this song. The fuckers made it a Japanese Bonus Track. But as I learned, it takes more to release something in Japan, apparently. So bands have to make incentives for the people in those countries to release their CD. Bastards.

Band: Elvenking
Song: Petalstorm [Japan / Korea bonus track]
Album: The Winter Wake


Have you seen?
There is a hidden corner on these lands
Where cold waits patiently
Where, they say, the color of the things is real

Can’t you see?
Take a sit down here
And take a bowl of calamint tea
It will keep you warm until the night is gone

And time after time,
Fall arises, with all his leaves whirling in the sky
The year is passing by
Winter rises, bringing along a cloak full of cries, of cries.

Leaving all your memories far behind
The night brings along four thorns of farewell
Sitting down with my nightgown – unsweetened goodbye,
Everlasting goodbye

Do you believe?
Every change of season memories
Rain like a petals’ storm
And the horizon line dividing right from wrong.

Come with me,
If the silence is a torment
And the wait wounds up your chest
If the grandeur of these lands doesn’t heal your soul

And mile after mile
Spring arrives, and with it, sweet colors for a while
Dawn is turning bright
Summer rises, and bitter tears fall from your eyes, your eyes

Leaving all your memories far behind
The night brings along four thorns of farewell
Sitting here with my nightgown – unsweetened goodbye,
Everlasting goodbye
Everlasting goodbye

When there is a voice recalling, when a whisper is resounding
When a feather’s grazing you again, you start traveling with your mind
When the flowers lose their blossoms, (the) color of your face is withered
Still your mind back to where you lived, to your little garden

Leaving all your memories far behind
The night brings along four thorns of farewell
Sitting here with my nightgown – unsweetened goodbye,
Everlasting goodbye
