Story behind the song
A prog metal epic song. About the beauty and innocence we are born with. Inspired by the poetry of William Blake.
Lyrics
When the dew is fresh outside When the stars are all aligned When your time is finally here When the fear disappears To see the world as a grain of salt Heaven as a flower You hold the power in your hand Innocence and splendor Innocence and splendor You look beyond the stars You dream for more and more Dont let time pass you by Dont give in, dont question why To see the world as a grain of salt Heaven as a flower You hold the power in your hand Innocence and splendor Innocence and splendor Now luck is on my side Now I float up to the sky Now I found my reason why Now I see, no longer blind To see the world as a grain of salt Heaven as a flower You hold the power in your hand Innocence and splendor Innocence and splendor Chaos inside us A fire so bright Hold onto the flame Let your heart ignite
