Love can pass me by,
Memories can escape my cry,
No longer with the chain will I try,
Forward I will fly.

Whoever arrives at the timeless gate
Surpassing the previous lucid fate,
No longer will I wait,
Never will I be late.
Forward I will fly.

Time extends across the fight,
Floating into the grasp of the night.
No longer will I be blind to the light,
Never will you leave my sight.
I won’t be late, and Forward I will Fly.

Blameless at the spirit’s womb,
Whoever has the love consumed.
Preaching to the vacant tomb,
Make sure you leave me some room.
As I keep you in my sight, I will never
Be late, and Forward I will fly.

Leave me the comfort of my room,
Will my sight capture the vanity of you?
I won’t be late to the essential true,
Forward I will fly, with or without you.
