Pale Communion

Eternal rains will come We should say goodbye And suffer on our own as all our thoughts were wrong So hard to keep the darkness from seeping through And when the flood comes to drown us there is nothing we can do You told me not to wait unless I could wait forever Because there is no time for us Take comfort in what was So hard to keep the darkness from seeping through And when the flood comes to drown us there is nothing we can do Here it comes, our death comes And in my sleep I can't forget Reaching for the surface, I see you

A child of autumn was born Into a world of deceit and death And a land of ice A break of bonds would take her away And install a sense of loss and eternal sorrow She walks across the country She holds her head up high in the rain A mother is screaming for help And she turns around to stare At a scene from her memory She is hiding a wish in her heart That flows through her blood always And it's culled from a dream That someone is waiting to say her name And call her to his side at the cusp of eternity

You are sleeping unhampered by guilt Comes the morning you shut down The devil's breath is a disease on your lips Reaching out for your loss You prey on your flock Seeking out the weaker hearts With eternity in your grip And on a lifelong throne of sub-religion They will eat from your head With the moon above and the sun below I can't remember the sun upon my skin Slave to a sorrow that is whispering within I'm always waiting for you before I sleep There is no comfort in the distance that we keep In a river of grief I am drowning And your grip is surrounding my heart Balancing on the edge of failure And relieved, should I fall Scattered dust upon my eyes A winding road taking you nowhere A winding road taking me home And my home is my grave Waiting for a day when there is nothing left to say Voices of despair is a familiar friendship A society in your head holds the code to destruction Dying fast Summer dying fast And this can't last, as nothing ever lasts In a forest of flesh There is a need to sever myself away from happiness Still no drifting sun Black upon the earth Still the air is dry And the locust wait There is no help in the wake of our needs There is no help to dispel the pain There is no help yet some cling to a phantom There is no help, only circles on the water Only circles on the water

What is left when the morning comes Is the memory of a future And when my plight is done There is nothing left to hold onto There were friends waiting at my door They are gone now, for the year is new I stuck by my word And when the rains came Made it true and pure, to dissolve the hurt Are we nursing destruction? Pursuing a dream we once had Was it our intention to follow this road 'til the end Even if the end is a world of sorrow? There is a bond between us Even if it's frayed it is unbreakable So I come for you always And I welcome pain For a second of belonging somewhere There were times when I lost my way With hope pouring from my soul In a shelter from the sun I don't want to bare my scars for you

This track is instrumental.

Is this song not instrumental?

Show me a sign of troubles in your heart Spare me your lies and tell me that you're mine And our bodies float on the river To the oceans of demise Made me a slave to the secrets of your silence But you told me to stay And you told me you're mine And our bodies float on the river To the oceans of demise In light of all things to come, why do you despair? Because when you have no one, no one would care So don't care And all things will come undone There is nothing to share I'll be waiting for no one And no one is there to care Can't see, can't feel You run, I long I wait, he comes Takes you away In the embers of summer All things must die There's a passage of fire ahead Fire on the other side There comes a time when the river runs dry Winter comes and we sacrifice Our lives

The mist is sleeping on the water And winter is hiding in my heart Thorns in my eyes are slowing me down I can't pass through to the other side She knows I'm the one who sought her But when we fall, we'll fall so hard She holds a secret and won't show me how How to break the riddle in her eyes This is treason of the mind and soul Death is no reason why you would go Inside the ghost of love is laughing It mocks the footsteps where I go It tells me nothing has been lost It whispers: "you've seen darkness before" In time the hurting will subside And longing is overthrown What's left is a void that grows inside And the echo of a failure This is treason of the mind and soul Death is no reason why you would go Have you ever had the feeling of a sorrow inside? Have you ever been the reason why a hope subsides? Have you ever seen the aftermath of giving up? Have we given up? Is it over? Have you given up? Is winter hiding in your heart?

The grave of our youth is up ahead and life has become a burden. We move in circles of suppressed despair, Waiting for the sun. And turning stones to find evidence but it hides in the recesses of our hearts. A written decree of our loss and we carried no faith in the cross. And the cold years are coming for the victims of a longing Out through the doors of starvation and into the rains of damnation where the bitter winds are singing for the victims of a longing. We carried along through squalor with an inborn need to dominate and possess. It gives birth to an anger inside and we can't control this. The blood of departure in our tracks dripping from our emptying vessels, your hand reached out to hold mine but you're grasping melting ice. Asleep in the rain, a child once again. And the ghost in my head has forgiven me. Lifted his curse upon me!
