Track Insight / Lyrics
Dust motes swirl, in smoky candlelight
As ancient pages shroud, the library's plight
Parchment whispers secrets, of a forgotten age
While shadows dance, across the dimly-lit stage
I'm lost in the tomes, as time slowly descends
Seeking tales of love, amidst the dusty friends
In this echoing hall, the midnight hours tick by
Each heartbeat a portrait, of memories left to dry
The weight of a lifetime, rests on every shelf
And I, a restless wanderer, find solace in wealth
Oh, bookmark of midnight, settle in the stack
Of volumes untouched, yet stories to attack
Tonight, I'll ride the wind, through twilight's hush
And dream of an adventure, in a world of forgotten rush
The scent of old books, saturates the air
As I trace the calligraphy, in letters so rare
Goldleaf illuminations, paint a magical scene
As I merge with the tales, and the characters unseen
Each story a portal, to realms I've yet to roam
Through mysteries and legends, in a world to call home
Oh, bookmark of midnight, settle in the stack
Of volumes untouched, yet stories to attack
Tonight, I'll ride the wind, through twilight's hush
And dream of an adventure, in a world of forgotten rush
The tomes awaken, with a sigh and a groan
As I ride the rising mist, to a distant throne
Where heroes and villains, carve their timeless lore
And the shadows shift and dance, as I spin and soar
Oh, bookmark of midnight, settle in the stack
Of volumes untouched, yet stories to attack
Tonight, I'll ride the wind, through twilight's hush
And dream of an adventure, in a world of forgotten rush
With the dawn's first light, I'll leave this place behind
But the memories linger, like the musty scent I find
For in the pages turned, and the tales yet untold
I've found a midnight kingdom, where my heart can unfold.
