Cast aside my will
Decomposing soul, abandoned and cold Every step is a foot in the grave Admitting the pain is too profound for the brave I release you from my arms again No, this is not my burden Lifeless, always Your words will remain But your image, a crooked frame With a mind like seasons, there's no chance for reason The withering brings promise of dichotomy Reflections of what I've done, our requiem The horizon is a reminder, of wounds to come The smoke will lead you home If I could only burn The words I've yet to learn I saw the light in the sky We weren't always so blind to the lies, devouring life When the last star falls, who's to blame For the eternal night, of wishes reclaimed? The dawn of a new day, same faces, new pain To carry on would be insane I release you from my arms again No, this is not my burden Close your eyes and breath Time to leave, this will be the end Where do I begin? This was a mistake, I have nothing to say Your pain is well deserved I've lived and loved, and all I've learned (We can) We can only promise to burn Marvel at the bridges flame, wonder why they never came End of all They consider the body a temple Tear down the walls The horizon is a reminder, of wounds to come 02. Our Constellation Music by Fredrik Norrman Lyrics by Laurence Jonathan
It was misery that aligned our stars
A glimpse of sorrow soon unbound our scars Unraveling skies, so carry on The answer it hides, is not what you seek Kissing the mouth of cruel words A language of truth, no one will speak The rain fell, so shall I The ash once held your flame Together we watched the light die, for the last time The veil fell, so shall I The past speaks your name I sever the silver line, for the last time Make no mistake, your desperation, it still lingers All that you take, love's expiration It's drawing nearer Make no mistake, your desperation, found its way to your finger All that you take, love's expiration Follow me To the edge of the earth I hope you find all that you search I'll just wait for our stars to align We've always strayed towards tunnels that hold no light Wretched day, lies are horrid Beauty of truth, I am slain 03. Emptiness Fulfilled Music by Emil Alstermark Lyrics by Laurence Jonathan
I watched you pass, most darkened cloud
The calm before you was I Like a curse, I will lift you Off your feet, swept by every verse escaping lips of deceit There is no other way to clear these skies of grey Oh I don't know, which way I should go I've filled a sea of tears, careless wonder, a farewell to fears There is no other way, to clear these skies of grey In the night These shadows know me well No answer to these calls of distress When only time can tell I'm no stranger to emptiness And all that ever mattered, shattered Out of hand, out of time Out of reach, out of mind All that shined in the night, once gathered In the depths of sleepless dark, enlighten my path Apathy 04. Caught In Silence Music by Fredrik Norrman Lyrics by Mattias Back
Take away the suffering
From the daemons trapped inside Can't see these creatures How to see the finders How to hide from the signal lights Look for warnings, look for signs Watch out for the hollow minds Emotions are burned away Step into this lake of fire Try to reach a higher ground Before being swallowed alive Take shelter in the storm Soon it will reach the eye On a journey further To find who survives 05. The Day I Dissolved Music by Fredrik Norrman Lyrics by Laurence Jonathan
Eternally incomplete
Perpetual fracture, a fraction We dwell until we are too deep We wander still, too far to reach Our reality shatters before our eyes, drown us in broken glass Truth is the only lie Life's affliction, time will not rewind You turned away, you let me breath Until you hang me from your heartstrings We dwell until we are too deep You were the promise, but not mine to keep Time does not exist, we are slaves to distance There is no purpose for any of this Our reality shatters before our eyes There is no purpose for any of us to exist Hand me from your heartstrings Nothing, all I've become With zero, I am one There is no resolve Take me back to the day I dissolved Time will not rewind, truth the only lie As sleep carries you away from me, all fears sincerity, condemned to dreams Our reality shatters before our eyes, drown us in broken glass Time does not exist, we are slaves to distance There is no purpose for any of this 06. Watching The Drowners Music by Fredrik Norrman Lyrics by Jonas Renkse
Waves come crushing
Ten feet tall and roaring Destroyer Oppressor The will is ancient Beyond knowledge and sworn to disaster Ten feet tall and rising No resistance left The grip of old has come Hereby we are the watchers They are drowners for their faith is futile The tide is raging Against all of man's work Punisher Liberator Being all at once Trespassers in the sacred waters Sickening slow death Silver dawn upon us Ashen sky A drowners heart in each of our hands 07. In Hopeless Pursuit Music by Fredrik Norrman Lyrics by Laurence Jonathan
All eternal laments, my stigma
I have failed you What can summon forgiveness now? When songs of endless grief go unheard Deafen the ears, muting the mouth No words will ever bring you back now I, yet possessed I strive, I'm haunted by dreams This void has embodied me Losing the faith That should never have been placed In hopeless pursuit Of the crippled artist's winter heart Most wretched mind painted me a picture Now what I am to do, with the visions you've left behind? I don't feel alive From the dark that I've held inside Will you wait? Can you see? Shadows bleeding out from me Even when all else is shole You'll still be alone Well I'm leaving, with your heart still beating It grows cold 08. Adoring Ashes Music by Fredrik Norrman Lyrics by Laurence Jonathan
I brought fire to the gates of heaven
Enraptured by the coldest of hearts Tales of it's worship The words that echoed in vain "I am the empty" I whispered Goodbye My voice carried by the wind Finds its way to you, will you listen? My words burn with the sun Will they be heard, or will it be shunned? All life and dreams, lost over-night The moon rose a flood too high this time Losing hope in the tragic tide The words that echoed in vain "I am the empty" I whispered Goodbye To remain non-existent Revel in irrelevance Your bitter reflection, your mind is straying The soul misdirected, your departure, betraying Your world is falling down, I've come to reclaim my crown Your eyes, open today I will be there, I cannot stay Voice of reason, heed the call Ash like snow, prayers fall |
