The Ebony Throne - Candlemass

Where’s the muses cave

The isle of the dead

The sign of Eph is gone

So is the sun

Tired and confused

I sail into the night

With the devil at my shoulder

I’ll be fine

I ride the straits of darkness everyday

No light will lead my way from my pain

Drowned in tideless pools

No haven for my mind

In grief I meet the storm

Eye to eye

On the ebony throne

Lies the diagonstone

My voyage to vanity

Oh, take me there

To the ebony throne

I followed the sirensong

No enlightened society

Can bring me back

in the maelstrom of minds

Like a will-o-the-wisp

I sail on…

I sail the depths of apathy alone

The world is fading

I 'm a long way from home
