Temple of Guilt

Pale skin Deep dark eyes Fallen, from majestic skies Dive down Into the depths of mourn An ironic welcome to a throne of pain My last pride, yet sorrow drowns my eyes Lament, despair, is all that I can bare The 5th door was opened into a world were (sic) hate reigns The 5th string of life is brought down to die Virgin tears, cuts like knives Help me with this grief Show me that we are not so vain Shadows torture me, stab my eyes For letting you come inside For bringing darkness to your life I betrayed you, brought oblivion to your perfect state Opened you a scar and left it bleeding Now I have gone too far In my own temple of guilt The door was opened and I brought you in Why? Pale silhouette, under a blood-red sky, The age of suffering in the moment you came to life Dive down, into the depths of mourn An ironic welcome, to the throne of pain Light came in, and all turned black A lament in my soul My last mistake of yore Behold the light in you, shine in this sick world Try to forgive me, for letting this be true I betrayed you, brought oblivion To your perfect life Opened your scar, left it bleeding Now I have gone too far In my own temple of guilt The door was opened and I brought you in Why?

Unexpected Between two different reigns Blurred visions mourn my sight In this dark and gloomy night You came Was it the perfect time? My liife is a mess, the world is crumbling A change to swallow as poison in my veins Darkness, crawled outside my burning soul The long forgotten light, no longer gone The 3rd string was brought down I can't fail, will not fail For the first time in my journey There is not a single place for this thing called failure You were the first That made me stand against That made me raise my head Up to the sky Peace of mind Came back into my hell That no longer burned My ashen self I have always wondered why you came for salvation I don´t deserve you, never did, and surely never will Paying you back will always stand as an utopic thought But I will try, and I will die, if I ever see you cry Never let this godforsaken world make you fade away Don´t let yourself go numb and loose (sic) your edge And never take me as an example, just do what I say Never use my stench of life as guide It will defeat you, will make you die Just follow your path, as you always have The 3rd string was brought down I can't fail, will not fail The meaning of my drownful life Has just changed, just morphed forever Sadness, crawled outside my drowning soul The long forgotten might, no longer gone Never let this godforsaken world make you fade away Don´t let yourself go numb and loose (sic) your edge Never take me as an example, just do what I say Never use my stench of life as guide It will defeat you, will make you die Just follow your path, as you always have There is no stronger weapon than your innocence Than your will to live and change all things go black Never let your hate be stronger than you And if a man shall ever step in your path, he shall be crushed Taught me, possesed me Took me to survival Opened once again The bridges that I burnt

Dual personality That haunts each moment of this lie called slavery Abundant thoughts bring me madness Cut inside my newly turned subconscious mind Why is there so much hatred When, did it become true Why is this grief consuming me This can´t be true Sometimes in my newborn dawn I wish the sun, I wish the light could be no more But I´m wrong Sometimes in my silent tomb, the lifeless call And ask me to embrace the cold But I won´t Why, can I be so wrong When, did I loose (sic) my focus What turned my sky into a blurry black pit This isn't true Time to come back and defeat my demons The brightest of lights shines So hidden in my soul My paralized Drowned feelings Need to be no more Every falling tear hurts more, I am a failure, I hurt the ones I love I am the blade that cuts myself I try to change Why, is there so much hatred When, did it become true Why is this grief consuming me This monster can't be true Help me, save me You, must apear Sorrow needs to leave me Forever, needs to fade away The first string is supposed to be the strongest one Irony The first string is supposed to lead the lost Save me Take me again, and let me come in forever I have really tried, but my trying is a pity Let me see the light around me. The first string is broken by my deeds Irony I have it all, I had it all, but my existence is so wrong Save me The garden of delights is next to my inferno I have really tried What is wrong? Help me, save me The hidden light must appear Sorrow needs to leave me Forever, needs to fade away My paralized Drowned feelings Need to be no more Why, is there so much hatred When, did it become true Why, is this grief consuming me This can't be true

The emptiness that burns your soul Will forever be The bleeding sun that burns you down All because of me Anger, despair All there is to see Forgive this twisted long lost soul Don't suffer, never suffer, in my sea You came into my whipped soul Cleansed my bleeding wounds Disenchantment, shame What did you choose? You are in pain And I know why I chose you and stinged you Ain't that a lie I brought you the weakest sun of all That shines so dark, it mourns I need a new chance, to enter your life And not to cry as I watch you die Because of me I failed you, never thought I would And never think you had to do with it My black sun, became your tomb But I will save you. from this realm of death Millions of wishes, I made you, you took them, and dreamed away You believed, embraced me, and vanished me from my black hell I don't deserve you, and I never will I turned your sky, the perfect heaven, into a fucking hell Despair, mournful tragedy, suffering, all that you have seen Lifeless, corroded, dead, with a fear for tomorrow What will you become, from all my sorrow You have given me all, second string I know I disappoint you, I am a failure A part of me has died, and it's not me I brought you the weakest sun of all That shines so dark, it mourns I need a new chance, to enter your life And not to cry as I watch you die Millions of wishes, I made you, you took them, and dreamed away You believed, embraced me, and vanished me from my black hell I don't deserve you, and I never will I turned your sky, the perfect heaven, into a fucking hell Despair, mournful tragedy, suffering, all that you have seen Lifeless, corroded, dead, with a fear for tomorrow
