Lyrics
over the roar of the sea, under the gaze of the stars
I let the jealousy take root, carried rage in my heart
played the air between my hands without an orchestra to lead
until the darkness split asunder and unleashed a faceless dream
I was frightened of leaving and desperate to be gone
pursued by something formless, relentlessly alone
restless whispers sang to me, on restless winds they came:
“seek that which seeks you – everything has a name”
until this, I was nothing
until this, I was nothing
I was a shadow
I was a shadow
on the mirror of the sea, under the gaze of the stars
will you bear witness to this, faithful Estarriol?
and gather my remains, if to doubt my self succumbs –
youth is so impatient; it is the learning that is long
you knew better than anyone
its likeness is my own
two voices are one voice
both speaking my name
I am the shadow
I am the shadow…
