 Armageddon "Silver Tightrope" (lyrics found)

* From album "Armageddon"

I close my eyes to worldly skies

I leave behind the day

And deep within me, I shall begin

To chase my thoughts away

As loved ones hold me to their sides

Their strength flows into me

To cast me out of sorrow's blindness

Into eternity

I thought I heard them softly calling

The voices of the spheres

As light years flash forever falling

Away from waking fears

I reach out, try to touch the passing

Of beings bathed in light

But they just smile, their eyes not asking

To see beyond their sight

[Silver tightrope] 3x

I thought I saw the candle-bearers

On their way to the beyond

Beckon to me from the future

To come and join the throng

I stepped upon the silver tightrope

Balancing beliefs

And wings unfurling with a new hope

I left behind my griefs

Silver tightrope…
