Sitting under a pine

The deep silence... unbroken around

One dark lake

So placid, so cold...


Descended night

Throws shadows over water

Brown leaves fly

Autumn is turning into winter


What happens around me?

It has no meaning...

I sleep in my woe

This is not my world...

For my world lies

Beyond other's reach


Shadows dancing - my throne

My dreams' winterland I behold

Through the gates of time unseen

In a silent night


Somewhere deep inside

In the darkest woods

In the darkest nights

Lies my ancient realm

Where are still places

For me to find


Shadows dancing - my throne

My dreams' winterland I behold

Through the gates of time unseen

In a silent night
