No Shade in the Shadow of The Cross - Sufjan Stevens

If there isn't light when no one sees Then how can I know what you might believe A story told that can't be real Somehow must reflect the truth we feel, yeah Fade away, fade away Vanish into small Fade away, fade away Break the crystal ball Oh, it's the sign Feels like the time On a small world west of wonder Somewhere, nowhere, all There's a rainbow that will shimmer When the summer falls If an echo doesn't answer When it hears a certain sound Then the beast is free to wander But never is seen around Then it's the sign of the southern cross It's the sign of the southern cross All right Sail away To the sky From the book the word is spoken Whispers from forgotten song Gather all around the young ones They will make us strong Reach up above your dreams of pleasure Give a life to those who die Look beyond your own horizons Sail the ship of sighs And it's the sign of the southern cross It's the sign of the southern cross Fade away, fade away Break the crystal ball Fade away, fade away I can't accept it any more On a real world west of wonder Somewhere, nowhere, all There's a rainbow, see it shimmer When the summer falls From the book the word is spoken Whispers from forgotten song Gather all around the young ones They will make us strong It's the sign of the southern cross It's the sign of the southern cross Don't live for pleasure Make life your treasure Fade away Eight miles high, about to fall And no one there to catch you Look for the sign, the time The sign of the southern cross Play on

Secret chiefs cloaked in wisdom Dark illuminators of zyx Brings the putrefaction process To lead the soul across styx Ludul bel nimeqi ea Naramtu dianau apsu The seven ones of babel Offer the grail of ecstasy To open up the eye of Shiva Through the great work of ecstasy Celebrators of becoming Appears in the sethian mystery To turn lead to gold Through the great work of alchemy The secret sign of Mendes Unveil the magic of the goat Cults of the shadow Under ilan hizon's root La tapallah puluthu Utukke lemnuti apkallu The seven ones of babel Offer the grail of ecstasy To open up the eye of Shiva Through the great work of ecstasy Celebrators of becoming Appears in the sethian mystery To turn lead to gold Through the great work of alchemy Erset la tari ki-utu-kam Adapa baru sar kissati Ziqqurrat kutha pet pi girru Erset la tari ki-utu-kam Subigo inimicus Subigo inimicus Subigo inimicus Subigo inimicus Ludul bel nimeqi ea Naramtu dianau apsu

When the cold of winter comes Starless night will cover day In the veiling of the sun We will walk in bitter day. But in dreams But in dreams I can hear your name And in dreams And in dreams We will meet again. When the seas and mountains fall And we come, to end of days In the dark I hear a call Calling me there, I will go there And back again.

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع

You promised a lifetime, but left in a moment I wonder if you even think about me Throw me a lifeline because I'm barely floating Stranded and broken You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away Just to let me go Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo You look like an angel Thought I was in heaven But I'm just falling without you with me I thought I was able to learn from my lessons Was trying my best but You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo
