Grand Materia Lyrics

So it came to me - and i saw beyond
the dark reflection of myself in me

I closed my eyes and i flew away
and i inhaled eternal life
Behind - the deepest of my soul
beyond the world you live in
i found a miracle i caught the shadowstone

With the knowledge in my hand
more alive than ever
with the seven astral planes within - i will live forever

So far away but somewhere inside me
an angel slumbers wrapped in shadows

Grand materia
catch the shadow of your soul
I became alone
my gift was both a blessing and a curse

Because i couldn't tell, didn't dare to speak,
no one to trust
i kept my knowledge for myself

Alone but with a presence inside me
an angel is awake in the shadows

Grand materia
tame the shadow of your soul
There is no end in my life - no final destination
both blessed and doomed to walk the earth,
as an immortal transmutation

Something dark is always close- trying to control me
i think it wants the shadow back,
through the barriers inside me

Alone but with a presence inside me
a demon is awake in the shadows

Grand materia
