Extrefato - A Song For Burning Jordan Lyrics

You rose among stars and boundless skies Child of fire bearer of truths untold
Where men feared to see beyond the veil you gazed Burning Jordan past the heaven's fold
No limits bound your bold untamed mind Like a wind you chased the unknown's face
And amidst the stars you found hidden truths Where the world stayed blind you set your own pace
But to dream is to court the chains of fear Freedom of thought turned into blind to seer
Your words like swords cut through the hollow green And the light you carried made the darkness bleed
They hindered you humiliated your quest For knowledge in their hands became sin confessed
In chains they dragged you traitor they called Yet you sought to raise the heart where others crawled
You gazed burning Jordan past the heaven's fold No limit the wind you disdained
For the infinite you saw was far too vast For minds drowning in dogma, stuck in the past
They sentenced you as one snuffs a star Destroying light caving flames in a jar
But the universe will not bow to their fear Your thoughts live on even as you disappear
They burned you Jordan on a cruel pyre Silence in your mouth but not your fire
You died in the flames but flames gave you breath As the world lost you, you conquered death
Against all justice they tore your life But they could not kill your inner light
For those who defy the dark do not fall The humane lives on, burning Jordan standing tall
Now the stars tell of your cosmic dream Of a universe that expands without seam
And those who condemned you remain in the shade While you burn in Jordan in truth of state
So we remember you philosopher of blame No longer humiliated no longer in shame
Eternal now among the stars you knew Burning Jordan you are born anew
