SONATA ARCTICA – A Monster Only You Can’t See Lyrics

Far in the skies
Where the stars attach to the strings
You have seen angels fall, when a monster clips their wings

Darkness tonight
Someone whispers in the void
The loveliest things in your ear
You’ve been warned, you must avoid

When you hear the bells, heed the call
Tread without a fear, my friend
On your shoulder we behold
A monster only you can’t see

Anymore
Can we keep the rain abay
Once, you were sliding away
All the way down, without a rail, you

Tried a new way
Driving everyone away
Your eyes cannot lie like your face
There is no glory in disgrace, but

Friends are near
We are here
We still carry all those
Things you believed in, asshole

We have bent the rules
We have lied
Loved and known you’ll rise again
Friends will do all this for you

Child is aborn
Oh so feeble in this place
You are the guide they adore
Hopelessly lost within a maze, but

Friends are near…
We have bent the rules…

We will bend the rules
We will fight
Help you, we will win tonight
Spread your wings and you will rise

Sure, your mind weighs like a boulder
There’s a monster on your shoulder
Words and phrases, meanings, faces
Virtues, vices,
Your luck’s based on balanced dices

We are you, you are us
Always, you’re one of us
Respect, asshole
You don’t know just how much we sometimes have sacrificed to be there for you

Your keys and the keyholes once will be found
Dreams and reality, aligned
You’ve grown and found things you thought were left behind
Smile and you will see this world smile back at you

We’ve bent rules for you
We have lied
Loved and known you’ll rise again
Friends will do it all for you

We will bend the rules
We will fight
Help you, we will win tonight
Spread your wings and you will rise

We will bend the rules
We will fight
Love and know you’ll rise again
Friends will do all this for you

We will bend the rules…
