Lyrics
Life isn't what it seems
A howling voice is haunting my dreams
Long lost but here today
The what we are is passing away
Myth and legend do apply
When the spirit's holy
Death unto the ties that bind
Do us part in glory
Help me, Faerie
Sonic screaming
Hold me, Banshee
Gaze into the austere
Deep in the eye of celestial sphere
To know that the vision's real
You must be strong as crucible steel
Myth and legend do apply
When the spirit's holy
Death unto the ties that bind
Do us part in glory
Help me, Faerie
Sonic screaming
Hold me, Banshee
Help me, Faerie
Sonic screaming
Love me, Banshee
Time to let go of fear
A new tomorrow end of a year
Praise for the one to die
The caoindeah's wail you cannot deny
Myth and legend do apply
When the spirit's holy
Death unto the ties that bind
Do us part in glory
Help me, Faerie
Sonic screaming
Hold me, Banshee
Help me, Faerie
Sonic screaming
Love me, Banshee
