Therion
Fly to the Rainbow
I don't live today
Rain in the sky made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky made the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Well, I lived in magic solitude
Of cloudy-looking mountains
And a lake made out of crystal raindrops
Roamin' thru space, two thousand years ago
I've seen the city of Atlantis
Sinking into eternal darkness...
Somewhere in the blue distance
Are those long forgotten trees of yore
A broken violin floatin' alone in december
Darkness everywhere and nothing more
Symbol, strange melancholy
Painted torrid colours to a sky of green
Candle, breathing one night only
Far away, in chillness, bleak, unseen
Drifting galley, ghostlike shadow
Set sail to catch and kill the time
Echoes wandering down an endless meadow
Search for a thing... sublime...
Fly to the rainbow, fly away, so far away...

It was spontaniously added in the studio)
