Passing of the Crimson Shadows Lyrics
Music by Laine
Lyrics by Kotamäki, Laine
Lead me to the bridges of isolated emotion
And we shall meet no more
Into the arms of time I hasten before
The final moonbeam falls
No blessing for the poor
Nor for the hungry ones
No blessing for the ones who grieve
No mercy for the suppressed ones
Lonely be the latest hour
The spirit sleeps in the ocean
Dying star beneath the day
Slowly lapsed into its grave
Can you sense the shadows of crimson passing by?
Lonely be the latest hour
And the spirit sleeps in the ocean
Soon from flesh to part
Sense the passing shadows of our lives
Dying star beneath the day
Slowly lapsed into its grave
No blessing for the poor
Nor for the hungry ones
No blessing for the ones who grieve
No mercy for the suppressed ones
Lonely be the latest hour
The spirit sleeps in the ocean
Dying star beneath the day
Slowly lapsed into its grave
Can you sense the shadows of crimson passing by?
Sworn to this blackness
Soon from flesh to part
Sworn to this blackness
Failed under the eyes of god
Forsake the light
Under the eyes of god
Bow to none
Farewell to light
Lonely be the latest hour
Bow to none
Lonely be the latest hour
The spirit sleeps in the ocean
Dying star beneath the day
Slowly lapsed into its grave
Spirit in the ocean
Star beneath the day
Passing of the crimson shadows
Lyrics by Kotamäki, Laine
And we shall meet no more
Into the arms of time I hasten before
The final moonbeam falls
Nor for the hungry ones
No blessing for the ones who grieve
No mercy for the suppressed ones
Lonely be the latest hour
The spirit sleeps in the ocean
Dying star beneath the day
Slowly lapsed into its grave
And the spirit sleeps in the ocean
Soon from flesh to part
Sense the passing shadows of our lives
Dying star beneath the day
Slowly lapsed into its grave
Nor for the hungry ones
No blessing for the ones who grieve
No mercy for the suppressed ones
Lonely be the latest hour
The spirit sleeps in the ocean
Dying star beneath the day
Slowly lapsed into its grave
Soon from flesh to part
Sworn to this blackness
Failed under the eyes of god
Under the eyes of god
Bow to none
Farewell to light
Lonely be the latest hour
Bow to none
The spirit sleeps in the ocean
Dying star beneath the day
Slowly lapsed into its grave
Star beneath the day

Sort of speaks of the finality of death to me, especially the chorus, and use of words such as "no more", "latest hour", final" etc etc.
The only thing I don't really get is the "crimson" shadow. The only thing I can think of is the setting sun (literally and metaphorically) ... which I guess ties in with the moonbeam line in the first verse, and that metaphorically the sun is setting on their life. Otherwise I'd be inclined to think it has something to do with death ... often described as crimson red.
