Styx

The Styx (Ancient Greek: Στύξ, also meaning "hate" and "detestation") (adjectival form: Stygian, /ˈstɪdʒiən/) is a river in Greek mythology that formed the boundary between Earth and the Underworld (often called Hades which is also the name of this domain's ruler). The rivers Styx, Phlegethon, Acheron, and Cocytus all converge at the center of the underworld on a great marsh, which is also sometimes called the Styx. The important rivers of the underworld are Lethe, Eridanos, and Alpheus. more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

I hear voices from beyond the veil
They reverberate in mystery
There are shadows in my heart
And they multiply in memory 

And the comrades that I've lost out there
In the scattered ruins still speak to me 

If the flickering light of your campfire dims
The world grows smaller 
It's closing in
I'm standing here
And I want you to live 

I know 

These are the times we find out who we really are
This will be when a true friend stands at your side
Someone like me who wants to
Believe in the days of high times and innocence
Drawing the lines and shouting back to the night
Someone like me who wants you to live 

And from those who've seen the light beyond
We know the end will bring tranquility
But the voices of the friends they heard
Brought them back to this reality 

Tough the beacon of light in your life seems dim
The sun's coming up on the world we're in
There are choices here
And I want you to live 

I know 

These are the times we find out who we really are
This will be when a true friend stands at your side
One more like me
Who wants to believe in the truth of all we experienced
To live again to jump back into the fight
Someone like me who wants you to live 

Pouring light from the sky
Portends you and I
Disappears in the night 

I still remember 

I hear voices from beyond the veil
Like a faint unfinished symphony 

Though the beacon of light in your life seems dim
The sun's coming up on the world we're in
I'm standing here
And I want you to live 

I know 

These are the times we find out who we really are
This will be when a true friend stands at your side
One more like me
Who wants to believe in the truth of all we experienced
To live again to jump back into the fight
Someone like me who wants you to live 

I want you, I want you, I want you to live
I want you, I want you, I want you to live
I want you to live 

I still remember.
