The Mirror Waters Lyrics
[birth, age, death. The sudden realization of aging and attempts to hide from time. Time is crucial yet essential. For ever or never, life lies between them.]
Slowly... Flying silent
Touching the wind as it sadly sings... for me.
Aging on the outside
With my youth in my empty hands
Lost all that I was living for, live no longer
Couldn't resist looking in her eyes
I saw myself, tears were falling
The seas of her eyes reflected my old age
Youth grows old, like winter follows spring
Faster... Falling kingdom
Dancers on winter winds,
they dance... for me
Nature's ways
Life can't always be controlled
Controlled by fear
Scared of months and years, fear no longer
Time leaves it's mark
The years come but never go
Masked is my face
The mask of age will fall, hide no longer
Couldn't resist looking in her eyes
I saw myself, tears were falling
The seas of her eyes reflected my old age
Youth grows old, like winter follows spring
Touching the wind as it sadly sings... for me.
With my youth in my empty hands
Lost all that I was living for, live no longer
I saw myself, tears were falling
The seas of her eyes reflected my old age
Youth grows old, like winter follows spring
Dancers on winter winds,
they dance... for me
Life can't always be controlled
Controlled by fear
Scared of months and years, fear no longer
The years come but never go
Masked is my face
The mask of age will fall, hide no longer
I saw myself, tears were falling
The seas of her eyes reflected my old age
Youth grows old, like winter follows spring

in the live album sleepy buildings the band realizes a readaptation, i admit that is hard to pick which one of two versions is better
Yeah, I agree, they're both amazing and beautiful in different ways.
Meaning: aging. Because I like both the prog/alt. rock style of the gathering later and the death/gothic metal sound of their earlier works, I like both. The only album of theirs I hate is "almost a dance". He sings awfully!
Dark ivory has the idea. Good song.
