Amorphis – Sky Is Mine Lyrics

Rock

From my world the sun faded
And the moon from my sky was gone with stars
I came home to a bleak room of sorrow
Forsaken house, place of grief, in solitude

I listened to my heart beating
The faint rush of my blood
I listened to my heart beating
The echoes from space

Something moving in the emptiness
Something drew me near
Someone told me of my future deeds
Whispered them in my ear

The sky stirred
The lights of space flared
Beneath my feet
The living earth started to breath

I listened to my heart beating
The faint rush of my blood
I listened to my heart beating
The echoes from space

Something moving in the emptiness
Something drew me near
Someone told me of my future deeds
Whispered them in my ear

I listened to my heart beating
The faint rush of my blood
I listened to my heart beating
The echoes from space

Something moving in the emptiness
Something drew me near
Someone told me of my future deeds
Whispered them in my ear

The sky is mine
This sword is mine
This fate is mine
This miracle, mine

The sky is mine
This sword is mine
This fate is mine
This miracle, mine

From steel I made the master's sword
Cleaving stone, cliff, a mountain
From darkness I stepped
Onto the path of stars

About This Song

"Sky Is Mine" is a haunting exploration of isolation and spiritual awakening, depicting a protagonist who has lost everything familiar-sun, moon, and stars-only to discover inner strength and prophetic purpose in the emptiness. The lyrics weave themes of desolation and rebirth, as the character moves from grief-stricken solitude to receiving mystical guidance about their destiny. Musically, Amorphis delivers their signature blend of progressive metal with melodic death metal elements, featuring atmospheric passages that mirror the song's journey from darkness to revelation. The track exemplifies the band's ability to merge Finnish folklore sensibilities with heavy music, creating an epic narrative that transforms personal loss into cosmic empowerment. This song stands as a powerful meditation on finding meaning in suffering and claiming one's place in the universe despite overwhelming despair.
