Elysium - Millenia Gone lyrics

A dragon plummets from without the moon And in the very same instant another star winks out The soul of the great beast has expired It savagely beats its falling wings And speaks coarsely in its hollow, rasping tongue Of a time, long since pa**ed, when it was young Gravity latches onto the dragon and drags her cruelly earthward She can no longer defeat the elements and stay aloft Screaming, tearing at her breast she plummets headlong Into a dark chasm somewhere in the south, deep inside a forest And the nightingale whistles in its shrill, beauteous tongue Of millennia gone when the great reptilian was young
