lyrics

From guided by chilling breeze
to being lost by howling wind
From seeing truth in candlelight
to blinded by lightning sky
Climbing the stairs to the top
did you look around or stop
To wait for the one behind
To care for the one without candlelight
To stay with your feet on the ground
To rest not to loose your mind
but don't forget to look outside
and don't let the storm out of your sight
once on the top there's no one on your side

From listening to white whispers
to unbearable earsplitting screams
From learning truth in rustling leaves
to ignoring cries for help
Climbing the stairs to the top
Did you look around or stop
To talk with the one in front
To catch the stumbling knight
To grab the handrail on time
To discover the echoed words
But don't forget to look outside
and don't let the storm out of your sight
once on the top there's no one on your side
Finally every body will reach the top, no matter if you want it or not
Even you will carry the crown, feel the power and it might.
Then fall to depths you never saw.
