M. Laakso – Vol. 1: The Gothic Tapes

The night is always the darkest Just before the dawn The sky is always the clearest At the coldest calm Our path is laid stone by stone Did by the belt of stars Like an echo sweeping through The moor of the trees Like a mist cold and grey We drift as one with the dusk The darkly offspring of the night We are the light Children of the night Like the moon we shine Children of the night Children of the night Like the moon we shine Children of the night We await for the nightfall As if silence wrote a song Veiled by the great dark clouds Shrouded in fiery lost The night is always the darkest Just before the dawn The sky is always the clearest At the coldest calm Like a mist cold and grey We saw with the eventide The darkly offspring of the night We are the light Children of the night Like the moon we shine Children of the night Children of the night Like the moon we shine Children of the night No, no, no, no, no, no Nobody can save you from yourself No, no, no, no, no, no No one can save you from the night I can’t pray for you anymore I won’t pray for anybody I won’t, I won’t, I won’t, I won’t I won’t, I won’t, I won’t, I won’t I can’t pray for anyone I won’t pray for you anymore I can’t, I can’t, I can’t, I can’t I can’t pray for anybody Children of the night Like the moon we shine Children of the night Children of the night Like the moon we shine

We were like bullets in the gun Burning wild like a high arctic sun An itch on trigger finger Never meant to linger We were once a band of brothers Bound by the night We danced with the devil In the pale moonlight Every single day was a gamble A gamble with our souls We excelled in access, baby Yet we cried for more, more, more Father, lead us not into temptation Redeem us from our hell Come on! Roll the dice with the devil! Come on! Roll the dice with the devil! Wildfire in an ocean of gasoline The thirst was endless The walls came crumbling down The hunger relentless Some traveled at the speed of light While others faded away The doors were shut wide open For those who stayed Father, lead us not into temptation Redeem us from our hell The sun never shown On the house of everlasting night Lust! Gluttony! Greed! Sloth! Wrath! Envy and Pride! Lust! Gluttony! Greed! Sloth! Wrath! Envy and Pride! Lust! Gluttony! Greed! Sloth! Wrath! Envy and Pride! (Luxuria, Gula, Avaritia, Acedia, Ira, Inidia, Superbia) Lust! Gluttony! Greed! Sloth! Wrath! Envy and Pride! (Luxuria, Gula, Avaritia, Acedia, Ira, Inidia, Superbia) Lust! Gluttony! Greed! Sloth! Wrath! Envy and Pride! (Luxuria, Gula, Avaritia, Acedia, Ira, Inidia, Superbia) Lust! Gluttony! Greed! Sloth! Wrath! Envy and Pride! (Luxuria, Gula, Avaritia, Acedia, Ira, Inidia, Superbia) Father, lead us not into temptation Redeem us from our hell The sun never shown On the house of everlasting night Come on! Roll the dice with the devil! Come on! Roll the dice with the devil! Come on! Roll the dice with the devil! Come on! Roll the dice with the devil!

Death walks through the doorway Red-dressed, white thighs With her servant tongue she hisses Little sly lies As she glances at me With fire of hell burning in her eyes When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red The delivery is death Her libretto cuts knife deep As she spins the dance of death complete Her fire keeps on burning The Earth will keep on turning This world ain't big enough for you and me When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red The delivery is death Seduction through liberation - Red-dressed, white thighs Lust-driven desperation - Sly lies, green eyes Seduction through liberation - Red-dressed, white thighs Lust-driven desperation - Sly lies, green eyes When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red When the river runs red The delivery is death Seduction through liberation - Red-dressed, white thighs Lust-driven desperation - Sly lies, green eyes Seduction through liberation - Red-dressed, white thighs Lust-driven desperation - Sly lies, green eyes Seduction through liberation - Red-dressed, white thighs Lust-driven desperation - Sly lies, green eyes Seduction through liberation - Red-dressed, white thighs Lust-driven desperation - Sly lies, green eyes

We live in a nighttime world We dwell in the ashes of the dark, of the dark We’ve been burnt by the flame Soaked, in acid rain Forgotten, who’s to blame? Will the sun rise? Our world is on fire tonight Our world burns in flames tomorrow Lest we stand together and fight We are but servants of sorrow Would you still remember my name After the fall? On your weary face I see the world’s intolerable pain, in vain We are the cure We are the war cry that echoes through eternity Our world is on fire tonight Our world burns in flames tomorrow Lest we stand together and fight We are but servants of sorrow Would you still remember my name After the fall? Deeper and deeper into the night The solace of shadows kills the light Darker and darker grows the night The solace of shadows lights up the night Out of the shadow world The realm of the night Through mist and shadows Into the light Out of the shadow world The realm of the night Through mist and shadows Into the light The world’s intolerable pain The world’s intolerable pain The world’s intolerable pain on your face Our world is on fire tonight Our world burns in flames tomorrow Lest we stand together and fight We are but servants of sorrow Our world is on fire tonight Our world burns in flames tomorrow Lest we stand together and fight We are but servants of sorrow Servants of sorrow Servants of sorrow
