Dreadstorm-Mother Life, Father Death #metal #metalhead #deathmetal #epicmetal

So this was something different, about the cycle of life and death. I think the genre/style suits the idea Lyrics Before the first light touched the earth Before the first breath filled the air Two forces stirred within the dark Eternal, bound beyond compare Life...and death One gives the spark, one guards the flame One brings the dawn, one calls the night Neither exists without the other Together they make the endless wheel Mother Life... She breathes the world into existence He waits beyond the final breath She gives the gift of living He gives the peace of death Father Death... Forever turning, never ending Beginning born from every end What she creates, he holds with love And what he takes, she births again Eternal... MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! The eternal cycle, from the dawn of time MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! Forever entwined, forever as one MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! She gives Life — he brings rest MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! From Mother's arms—To Father's embrace! [LIFE] I breathed upon the barren earth And watched the sleeping seed arise I gave the beasts their beating hearts And painted fire across the skies I gave the rivers their course I gave the mountains their ancient bones I filled the darkness with my children And gave them worlds to call their own I watch them grow, I watch them love I feel their joy, I know their pain And though I know their days are numbered I give them life again and again [DEATH] I wait beyond the final hour I hear the cries they cannot hide I come to those whose strength is fading And stay beside them as they die I take the pain from weary bodies I quiet every fearful heart I hold the hands of those who suffer And give them peace when days depart Every soul that she has created Every heart beneath her sun I know them all, I love them all And welcome every single one What she has made, I will cherish What she has loved, I will embrace When their journey reaches its ending I will take them to their resting place MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! The eternal cycle, from the dawn of time MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! Forever entwined, forever as one MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! She gives Life — he brings rest MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! From Mother's arms—To Father's embrace! [LIFE] I give the breath— [DEATH] I give the rest— [LIFE] I light the flame— [DEATH] I guard the end— [LIFE] I send them forth— [DEATH] I welcome them— [LIFE] I give them love— [DEATH] I take their pain— [LIFE] I give them life— [DEATH] I give them peace— Neither exists without the other Together we are eternal MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! The eternal cycle, from the dawn of time MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! Forever entwined, forever as one MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! She gives Life — he brings rest MOTHER LIFE! FATHER DEATH! From Mother's arms to Father's embrace Eternal... Eternal... #metal #metalhead #epicmetal #deathmetal #progmetal
