Leprous - Melodies Of Atonement lyrics



Tracks



01. Silently Walking Alone

Counting all the days and nights
I have tried to please the crowds
Irreparable and bruised
Still I never felt refused
Covering up all stains in sight
Colored all in white

Silently walking alone
The power of being unknown
Silently soothing my soul
The hiding has taken its toll
Silently walking alone

Running up the slope to fight
With the flashbacks from the night
To where I was born in guilt
Where every brick was built

I'm done pleasing the crowds
After all my last call was to break this barrier
After all my last call was to take all the blame again

Silently walking alone
The power of being unknown
Silently soothing my soul
The hiding has taken its toll

Silently walking alone
The power of being unknown
Silently soothing my soul
The hiding has taken its toll
Silently walking alone

Silently walking alone

02. Atonement

Turmoil, empty faces in a whirlpool
Removing pity with a sharp tool
Seems you’re always the one to blame

Sour, crumbled, ready to devour
Broken pieces of desire
Wanted freedom, but all you got was blame

You’ve always been in chains

The final lie
The last denial
Realized, that it’s all because of you

Cannot deny
You’re standing trial
And again, it’s all because of you

Upholding your appearance for the loving
People that you owe nothing
The mutuality was never there

Storing all the criticism for you
Making sure you have no clue
Of how to regain your faith

Aspire, to be swallowed by the fire
That your ego has acquired
The deception has cut through
And it’s all because of you

The final lie
The last denial
Realized, that it’s all because of you

Cannot deny
You’re standing trial
And it’s true that it’s all because of you

Cannot deny
I can’t deny that it’s all because of you

It’s all because of you

03. My Specter

Found a place that I know
Where my seeds can be sown
Tonight, tonight, tonight
It's all been reconciled

Found a place I call home
Where my specter can roam
Tonight, tonight, tonight
It's yet to be defined

Yet, I feel the darkness fold all around my fragile soul
When the heat against the cold will define my final goal

I don't have to atone
For the sins you have grown
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Solution is in sight

All my life overblown
Could not face it alone
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Connected with the light

Found a place that I know
Found a place I call home
Tonight, tonight, tonight
It's all been reconciled

Yet, I feel the darkness fold all around my fragile soul
When the heat against the cold will define my final goal

The darkness fold
The darkness fold

04. I Hear The Sirens

In silence, do you fear the quiet?
Been set aside
Can you hear the sirens?
Oh Lord, am I alive?
Oh Lord, I'm cast aside
Oh Lord, must I abide?
And I treat you with silence
On board my ship of defiance

Do you fear the quiet?
I see the signs
That I'm left here with silence
Oh Lord, am I alive?
Oh Lord, I cannot hide
Oh Lord, let's go inside
To conceal the alliance
Oh Lord, I'm drowning in the silence

I believe in science
Oh, I can't deny
I believe, I believe
That I'm treated with silence
I conceal the silence
Oh Lord, I can't decide
Oh Lord, I can't deny
Oh Lord, I believe in silence
Oh Lord, I'm cast aside in silence

I fear the quiet, the severe silence
Longing for this feeling
This feeling so vibrant
Oh Lord, I can't deny
Oh Lord, must I defy?
Oh Lord, can I rely?
On being treated with silence
Oh Lord, I hear the sirens

05. Like A Sunken Ship

I believe when I'm stuck
I deceive when I'm out of luck
Try to focus, to forget
Reliving dreams, over and over

Put to sleep, like a sunken ship
Buried deep, unequipped
I don't complain, carry on
I won't explain, over and over

I chose to leave, but I'm back
Can't achieve what I lack
Chose to stop, sad to say
Giving up, over and over

Time will bend you for eternity
What I once knew, is

Calling, tried to fly but I'm
Falling, once again
Taken, how can I be
Mistaken, once again

Calling, tried to fly but I'm
Falling, once again
Taken, how can I be
Mistaken, once again

Calling, tried to fly but I'm
Falling, once again
Taken, how can I be
Mistaken, once again

Calling, tried to fly but I'm
Falling, once again
Taken, how can I be
Mistaken, once again

And I will say this again

So I've been moving down the line
Don't know how
I need to find what's mine

06. Limbo

Fireball, fireball, flying above all
Undeniably viable, always in full control

Sharpening all my senses, broken through all defenses
Fixating all my power, to climb the broken tower

Fireball, fireball, flying above all
Undeniably viable, always in full control
Viable, viable, reliable, liable

How can it break me or affect me when I am armored from head to toe?
How can it break me or affect me when I'm rid of all my foes?

Abandoned hall, broken walls
Forgotten with no rejoice
Fireball, fireball, flying above all

When apathy would serve me better
I can't turn away
When altruism cost too much of me
I can't turn away

Fireball, fireball, flying above all

How can it break me or affect me when I am armored from head to toe?
How can it break me or affect me when I'm rid of all my foes?

Letting go, letting go
It's moving slow, moving slow
Pulsating afterglow
Fireball, fireball

Been seen as a rebel
The work of the devil
Renegade, renegade
Renegade, renegade

Been seen as a rebel
A whole other level
Alien, alien
Alien

Been seen as a rebel
Your own private devil
Renegade, renegade
Renegade, renegade

Been seen as a rebel
A whole other level
Alien, alien
Alien

When apathy would serve me better
I can't turn away
When altruism cost too much of me
I can't turn away

When I go around in circles
I can't turn away
When apathy would serve me better
I can't turn away

07. Faceless

Leave now before the eruption unfolds
Time to move on
Creatures made an illusion of me
Leave now, let me be
Faithless, like an abomination
Possessed arrogance
Praises forming a demon in me
Tainted, left behind

All the circles moving away
I've been faceless for so long
Spaces left from the past
Won't let me go

And I will never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone
Can I be unforgiven?

I'm not the faceless now
I wanna get it out, get it out, get it out
I'm not the faceless now
And I can never let it go
I'm not the faceless now
I wanna get it out, get it out, get it out
I'm not the faceless now
And you don't wanna know
Oh, none to praise me now
And I'm falling out, falling out, falling out
I'm not the faceless now
In the middle of the night

Fiction in a meaningless existence
I'm incompatible
Nowhere to look for help anymore
Leave me alone
Feel the void around me
It burns when I look inside me
Alone, just like I was

Faces turning away
Traces letting go
I'm feeling crazy, here by myself
I am faceless, left alone

And I will never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never the unknown, never the unknown
I'll never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never go alone
Never the unknown

Oh, I'll never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone, never go alone
I'll never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
I'll never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone
(Can I be unforgiven?)
Never go alone

I'll never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never the unknown, never go alone
Never go alone
(Can I be unforgiven?)
Never go alone

Never go alone, never go alone
(Can I be, can I be, can I be, can I be unforgiven?)
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never go alone, never go alone
(Though I never, never give in)
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never go alone, never go alone
(Never go alone, never go alone)

Never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never go alone, never go alone
Never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never go alone, never go alone
Never the unknown, never the unknown
Never go alone, never go alone

08. Starlight

I'll lose my way towards the eternal flame
If I can't withdraw myself
And I'll betray myself today
While I'm falling in between, hey
A price to pay for my short-term gain
I've been saving all, saving all my prayers
I'll lose my way towards my mindful game
I'll always find, I'll always find a way to agitate

I see the moon beyond the night
I see the moon beyond (Beyond)
I'm floating in the starlight
I am floating here alone
I see the moon beyond the night
I see the moon is gone, gone, gone
I might stay forever
I'm floating here alone

I don't know what I'm going through
I'm not here to find the truth today
My vision is fading now
I'll have to make peace somehow
I cannot take the blame anymore
Am I on a path to doom?
Am I on a road to gloom?
It feels like a self-fulfilling prophecy
In what way can I be spared?
How can I be prepared?
For all the sudden storms
I need to take a leap of faith

When my world turns to grey
And my old ways decay
My truth will be revealed
Starlight (Starlight)
Starlight (Starlight)

I see the moon beyond the night
I see the moon beyond (Beyond)
I'm floating in the starlight
I am floating here alone
I see the moon beyond the night
I see the moon is gone, gone, gone
I might stay forever
I am floating here alone

I see the moon beyond the night
I see the moon beyond (Beyond)
I'm floating in the starlight
I am floating here alone
I see the moon beyond the night
I see the moon is gone, gone, gone
I might stay forever
I am floating here alone

09. Self-Satisfied Lullaby

Self-satisfied lullaby

Self-satisfied lullaby
Assertive mind
When the sky aurifies
Way up high

Self-satisfied lullaby
Possessive, blind
When the sky aurifies
The last goodbye

Magnified, simplified
Lost in time
When the sky aurifies
When you sing your

Self-satisfied lullaby
Assertive mind
When the sky aurifies
Way up high

Glooming lights crawling up my skin
Weary, shaken, processing yesterday's memories
(Processing yesterday)
Will not follow through with my vows
Fading away
Again I'll betray all my
All my fulfillments
Going back, going back
Getting close to slumber, slumber, slumber

Self-satisfied lullaby
(Undermine, undermining my faith)
Assertive mind (Lost in myself)
(Can I come back to my savior?)
When the sky aurifies (The one with influence)
(Postponing all my decisions)
Way up high

Self-satisfied lullaby
Possessive, blind
When the sky aurifies
The last goodbye

Till I sing my

Self-satisfied lullaby
Assertive mind
When the sky aurifies
Way up high
(When I come back, come-c-come back, come back home)

10. Unfree My Soul

Tonight's the night that I need saving
Tonight's the night that I belong
Tonight's the night that I'll be craving
Peculiarities in which I define

Unfree my soul at last
Throw away my outcast
I have to force myself
To reside in the world of the dead

Tonight's the night that I'll be starving
Tonight's the night I can't go wrong
Tonight's the night that I'll be carving
The trail I'm walking for the rest of my life

Unfree my soul at last
Throw away my outcast
I have to force myself
To reside in the world of the dead

Please let me inside
I'll capitulate at last
Follow the mob, mob tonight
'Cause I've been holding on, holding on in vain
The reality was always plain

Tonight's the night
Tonight's the night

Unfree my soul at last
Throw away my outcast
I have to force myself
To reside in the world of the dead

Unfree my soul at last
Throw away my outcast
I have to force myself
To reside in the world of the dead
