Golden Dawn Ascension

歌詞

(Intro: A melancholic, echoing church bell tolling. A soft, clean electric guitar arpeggio starts, accompanied by a weeping violin. Then, Ozzy’s classic, haunting voice cuts through the mist with an echo effect)Verse 1) The heavy chains I used to wear have fallen to the floor The shadows that I fought so long don't chase me anymore The midnight train has finally stopped, the engine’s running still I climbed the highest mountain, Mama, and passed the final hill. No more bottles on the nightstand, no more needles in the dark I finally found the light out here, beyond the static spark.Chorus) Mama, I made it home! The demons lost the final fight, I’m standing by the throne The world was dark and crazy, but the long, cold night is gone Yeah, the Blizzard of Ozz has passed away into a golden dawn. Don’t you weep for the Prince of Darkness, I’m finally in the clear Mama, I made it home, there are no more tears.Verse 2) I see the friends who left before, we're jamming in the sky The stage is made of thunder clouds, the music never dies Randy's playing a solo now on a flying-V of gold And for the first time in a lifetime, I don't feel crazy or old. I lived a thousand lifetimes, I wore the madman's crown But tell the kids I love 'em, and I never meant to let 'em down.(Chorus) Mama, I made it home! The demons lost the final fight, I’m standing by the throne The world was dark and crazy, but the long, cold night is gone Yeah, the Blizzard of Ozz has passed away into a golden dawn. Don’t you weep for the Prince of Darkness, I’m finally in the clear Mama, I made it home, there are no more tears.(Guitar Solo: The acoustic piano drops out as a massive, face-melting Zakk Wylde-style guitar solo erupts. It starts with emotional, weeping bends, then accelerates into blistering, lightning-fast picking, full of aggressive squealing pinch harmonics, backed by a driving heavy metal rhythm and swelling symphonic strings)(Bridge) (Spoken in a distorted, classic Ozzy cackle, but peaceful) All those years of going off the rails on a crazy train... Man, I never thought a train ride could end up in a place this beautiful. (Singing high and powerful) The fog has cleared! The pain is dead! I’m finally out of my own head!Chorus) Mama, I made it home! The demons lost the final fight, I’m standing by the throne The world was dark and crazy, but the long, cold night is gone Yeah, the Blizzard of Ozz has passed away into a golden dawn. Don’t you weep for the Prince of Darkness, I’m finally in the clear Mama, I made it home, there are no more tears.(Outro) Yeah, I made it home... No more hiding in the shadows. I love you all. (Ozzy lets out one final, iconic, soaring "God bless you all!" as the heavy guitar riff transitions back into a soft, beautiful piano outro. A single church bell rings out, fading into absolute silence.)
