Rotting Christ - Sleep Of The Angels lyrics



Tracks



01. Cold Colours

The Cold Twilight
Was Giving Way
To That Frozen Night
When He Started To Say

Through You Eyes
I Can See
None Of Your Lies
Convince Me

The Dancing Shadows
I Wait To Appear
The Omen That Shows
You Are Here

Chorus
Away From You Untrackable
And Yet Near You Untouchable

A Sudden Fear Came Into Me
The Night Is Here It Circles Me

A Sudden Fear
Came Into Me
The Night Is Here
It Circles Me

The Silver Of The Moon
So Intoxicating
I'll See Them Soon
It's Almost Scaring

Chorus

Undoing Hatred
Reflected The Gold Colours
Golden Fire And Red
The Black Of Death Follows

Chorus

02. After Dark I Feel

It's All The Same
So Dull So Plain
I Need The Spark The Flame
To Drag Me Out My Insane, Of My Insane

Only You And Me
Face To Fate
Come And Lead Me
To Another Place

A Circle Is My Mind
A Triangle Is My Soul
I Move Only Behind
I Must Be Reborn As A Whole

Chorus
Only You And Me
Face To Face
Come And Lead Me
To Another Place
Where I Can Taste
The Black Of Purity
Nothing More
Nothing Less
Escape Or Seek A Caress
After Dark I Feel
I Smell The Pain
I Revive And Heal
And This Is My Gain

It Calls Me Near You
Some Cosmic Will
I Want To Hold You
The Lust To Feel

It's All The Same
So Dull, So Plain
I Need The Spark, The Flame
To Drag Me Out Of My Insane, Of My Insane

Chorus

03. Victoriatus

Like The Ocean That Roars
Everything I Have Done
Echoes In My Ears
But Can Never Be Undone

The Battle Has Offered
The Passion And The Heat
I Can Not Be Denied
Triumph Or Admit Defeat

I Remember Now
Vigorous I Had Been
Really Cruel But Somehow
So Glorious No Man's Ever Seen

Chorus
May We Be
The First To Know
The First To See
The Glory To Bow
What Else Could It Be?
The Victory I Foresaw

I Honor The Past
I Carry The Future
I'll Make It Last
I Live Up To Our Culture

In Memory Of Those
Who've Crossed My Path
I Keep Them Close
In Times Of Death

Chorus

The Battle Has Offered,
The Passion And The Heat
I Can Not Be Denied, Triumph Or Admit Defeat
I Remember Now Vigorous I Had Been
Really Cruel But Somehow
So Glorious No Man's Ever Seen

04. Der Perfekte Traum

Ich Hatte Den Perfekten Traum
Noch Gar Nicht Lange Her
Aufregend Und Doch Schlecht
Was Ist Wirklich? Ich Weiss Es Nicht!

The Perfect Dream I've Had
Not Long Ago
Exciting And Yet So Sad
What's Real? I Don't Know

Die Dunkelheit Kam
Heulende Sturme Um Mich Herum
Ich Spurte Die Funken
Die Mich Erweckten, Die Mich Erweckten

Passion For Fight
So Long Desired
Towards Twilight
My Heart Becomes Lightened

A Whole World
Is Revealing Itself
This Story I've Never Told
I Kept It For Myself

Ich Hatte Den Perfekten Traum
Noch Gar Nicht Lange Her
Aufregend Und Doch Schlecht
Was Ist Wirklich? Ich Weiss Es Nicht!

It Had Fallen Dark
The Winds Howled 'Round Me
I Felt The Spark
That Inspired Me

Die Dunkelheit Kam
Heulende Sturme Um Mich Herum
Ich Spurte Die Funken
Die Mich Erweckten, Die Mich Erweckten

I Watch I Hesitate
I Cry And Implore
The Power I Hate
The Power I Adore

Sweet Melody
Unexpected Cold Figure
I Just Want To Feel
Pain Becomes Lust And Pleasure

His Eyes Met Mine
Time Stood Still
My Glory Will Shine
I Feel So Tranquil

Die Dunkelheit Kam
Heulende Sturme Um Mich Herum
Ich Spurte Die Funken
Die Mich Erweckten, Die Mich Erweckten

05. You My Flesh

Flesh From My Flesh
Natural Or Unnatural Guess?
Even If They Harm You
You Can't Die

Chorus
You My Flesh, You My Blood
I See The Truth
When You Die I'll Die
I Saw Through Your Eyes
I Spoke With Your Tongue
I Name You With My Name
Flesh From My Flesh
Natural Or Unnatural Guess?
Even If They Harm You, You Can't Die

They Can't Harm You
They Are Only Clouds
Come With Me In A Higher Sky
Imagine Your Will And Let It Be

Chorus

What Is This That Comes From You?
The Way It Comes It Makes Me Tremble Like You
Without Movement It Creeps Against Us
How Does It Dare It Can't Kill Us

Chorus

I Never Studied With My Mistakes
Even When Tired I'll Do The Same
Why Did I Give You Life?
Why Did I Give You Life?

06. The Word Made End

Clouds Of Guilt Gathering
Into A Sky Of Bitterness
Rain Of Tears Comes From Walls
I Once Cursed
Children Of The One Entranced,
Celebrating So Blind
For The Desolate Feels None
Of His Lost Glory Bat Awe

Behold! The Serpent's Fear,
Forgotten Emotion
Since The First Fall Of Tear
Wisdom's Failure Knowledge
As The Tree Of Life Decomposes Here

The Seventh And The Liar,
Underneath The Innocence Disguise
Fools! You Who Laid Your Faith
In Prophecies Of Deliverance

Chorus
The World Made End - Never To Be Spoken
The World Made End - Cease Of Immortality
The World Made End - A Name Revealed
The World Made End - Empyria Drowns

No Furious Beast Shall Reign
Before The Days Of Wrath
Wait For No Lightbringer
As Stars Fade Away

07. Sleep The Sleep Of Angels

In The Darkness
Of The Years That Went By
I See Through Loneliness
Only Fear Pain And Lies

Fear Can Take My Soul
Just Like The Odor Of Death
Changes Me As A Whole
Makes Me Hold My Breath

Sleep The Sleep
Of The Angels
Let My Eyes Sweep
This Beauty That Excels

Chorus
Delicate Silk All Memories
Cuts Through My Brain
Can't See The Mysteries
That Made Me So Plain
They Can't Be Seen
They Can't Be Heard
Just Like A Sin
Always There To Hurt

Another Day Has Passed
Another Night Is Here
Eternal End And Start
I Sense Guilt Coming Near

Chorus

Uneven Fight
Me Against My Wills
Under Moonlight
Remains Only My Sense
You Can Break The Spell
Tranquil My Mind
I Had Been So Blind

Chorus

08. Delusions

Take Me In A Heavy Sleep
In Adventures I've Never Seen
In A Dimension Before Death
Mentally Lost Always Have Been

If None Of Us / Return From Death

There Is So A Weaving
To Explain Life
In A Place
There Is No Life
What I Adore
Is Lost Behind

All The Figures Feel Like Me
How Can I Feel As Pain Does Not Exist
Here Knowledge Meets Nothingness
A Lost Dream, A Psychotic Feast

If None Of Us / Return From Death

There's So Weaving
To Explain Life
In A Place
There Is No Life
What I Adore
Is Lost Behind

I Have No Advice
How I Could
It Seems So Cordial
But In A Way It's Not

Chorus
Delusions: Lead My Like
Delusions: Name All My Life
With A Picture Of An Empty Heaven
A Clear Distinction

Between Death & Joy

09. Imaginary Zone

Petrified shadows
Malevolent motives
Open the fifth gate of lent
Enter to a snowy fantasmagoria
Emerge from nowhere
No father no mother
An unnature utterus
The white seas with dead fishes
Without sense
Feeling logic
Completely cold
Crystalized the riversides the hills
Glacial Strength
From the glacial era
Torment in icefall
The ice shaped god
As lernaean hydra recover its plagues
Throw onself into a fight
Long for its predestination
Opposite to the hot rays
Into the propylaea of victory
Adapted to human form
Bodes ill for the country
The fall of man

10. Thine is the Kindgdom

This is the dead land
This is cactus land
Here the stone images
Are raised, here they receive
The supplication of a dead man's hand
Under the twinkle of a fading star

Is it like this
In death's other kingdom
Waking alone
At the hour when we are
Trembling with tenderness
Lips that would kiss
Form prayers to broken stone

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper

The eyes are not here
There are no eyes here
In this valley of dying stars
In this hollow valley
This broken jaw of our lost kingdoms

Between the idea
And the reality
Between the motion
And the act
Falls the Shadow
For Thine is the Kingdom

Between the conception
And the creation
Between the emotion
And the response
Falls the Shadow
Life is very long

Between the desire
And the spasm
Between the potency
And the existence
Between the essence
And the descent
For Thine is the Kingdom
