Chained to the Earth Songtext
von Fires in the Distance

Diamond chains
Bind me
To this place

Place of hissing ghosts
Place of broken thoughts

Every link
Denies
Every hope

Stars adorn the dome
Of this iron home

Break free of the redeemer′s grasp
Reject the gift, this is my hearth
Sink deep in the forgotten sea
Eternal penance I will serve


So
I lift my head and gaze at untouchable dreams
Their lights reach out to me, but they can't hear me scream
My vision fades and colors leak out of their form
In somber seclusion I sing my Autumn′s Song

Diamond chains
Bind me
To this place

Place of hissing ghosts
Place I'll always loathe

Every link
Denies
Every hope

Stars adorn the dome
Of my frigid home

Break free of the redeemer's grasp
Reject the gift, this is my hearth
Sink deep in the forgotten sea
Eternal penance I will serve
