At the Rubicon
by Attalus

Album: Post Tenebras Lux

A new wind breaths it beckons me to cross this stream; bids me come and seek my fate
My heart is leaping its running its yearning its burning; but my reason bids me wait
while youre here you are safe " it tells me " return back now while theres still a chance
You are a king this is your fortune; over there youre just a man

But lay down your guns futile mind
Your fear has made you blind
And this is time to leave all else behind

Tonight the die is cast " i have no other choice
This step could be my last " i cant ignore that voice
Ive counted up the cost; everything i have is lost
And all ive left to do is cross

This is the place we call the crossroad " a river marks the great divide.
Separating kings from kingdoms sons from fathers men from wives.
A gentle stream the only barrier " between the dream and what is real.
Ill leave this cave of empty shadows " step into the light of forms revealed.

But lay down your guns futile mind
Your fear has made you blind
And this is price that freedom requires: to leave all else behind

Step across the line
Cut the tie that binds
Listen to your heart and not your mind
Let the kingdom fall
Castles thrones and all
Life is on the other side.

Tonight the die is cast
This step could be my last
The city is burning and there is no turning back
Ive counted up the cost
All i have left is lost
A new life is waiting; salvation is here and its mine for the taking
