Ocean Soul

Album: Century Child

[hailtheoceanborn]

“I only wished to become something beautiful

Through my music, through my silent devotion”

[hailtheoceanborn]

“Passed away in silence The flute from the realm unseen Empties its heart Making love to me with its enchanting melody Light of Orion, Shadow of Andromeda Call of the dancing universe”

[hailtheoceanborn]

“Above the universe beneath the great eye I shall desire you forevermore”

[hailtheoceanborn]

“End of Innocence,  Unending Masquerade,  that’s where I’ll wait for you”

[helenalwrites]

Without you the poetry in me is dead

Nightwish - “Gethsemane”

[hailtheoceanborn]

“Fly to a dream...”

[tiamathrus]

“Toll no bell for me, Father But let this cup of suffering pass from me Send me no shepherd to heal my world But the Angel - the dream foretold Prayed more than thrice for You to see The wolf of loneliness in me …not my own will but Yours be done…”

— Nightwish
