Colourful Grey – Autumn Rites lyrics

Don´t you ever forget
The time is running out
And the edge is closer than you think
You will die like we did
You will die like us
Away with your self-deception
It´s time to end your pointless journey
Boy, get initiated
Learn or speak our tongue

This is your chance
To trade the weak bonds of virginity
The false hopes and the make-believe
Your self-inflicted scarcity
Against a broader perspective
The table is set to dine for you
Take what your hands can hold on to
Let´s dance just like your fathers did
Just find the rhythms

The beginning of real life
Even you can be a man
The start of career
Let´s see what´s in store for you
We´ve got so much more
Than you ever could dream of
We´ve got so much more
Than you ever could taste

This is your chance
Seasons chance, don´t stay the same
It´s time to play a different game
You´ll not remember how it felt
Before your second birth
Anxiety grows constantly
Passion creates misery
The fear of losing the unreal
But we´ll never tell that

We´ll teach you how to walk
In the steps we used to take
This bitterness inside
Pollutes the hearts you´ll break
We´ve got so much more
Than you ever could dream of
We´ve got so much more
Than you ever could taste
