Swallow the Sun
Album • 2005
Falling from my life, deep to the sea. Drowning from living to the depths of me. Like the water that burns in my lungs, and the light that slowly fades above me, I'm bleeding rivers and they carried me to the sea. Crushing in this pressure, turning to stone. Roots rip my flesh and fill my skull, as worms dance around my drowning body. Feasting for the one that has gone. But I'm arriving, closing the door, ocean floor. Seven steps from my cradle, closer to the end with every breath. What is this hell that was made for living? I am arriving! The giant has grown too big inside me. Mountains of black stone, a volcano of dirt. When it went wrong, why am I here now? But not for long! Climbing up from this nest of nothingness, my faithful steps behind me. Marking my trail with circles, a path for you all. We've been ripped out from the womb. Through blood and pain into this life and we cry. Ripped out, given, but made to be taken away. I've been hiding this giant for too long, and it's grown like a parasite inside me. Under this shadow I've been walking. Now it's taken over me and she, the pure girl. Leave me before it's too late or I will cut your wings. I will cut your wings. I will cut your wings. For I can't control this that burns. It flows inside, through my every vein. It fills my fingers and burns my throat. Chains my heart again, insane pain. Insane pain! I throw myself into this stream, and let it take me down, underground. Here I end, from here I begin. The line is broken like my fragile body. Flesh rots before the giant's eyes, as he awakes from his silent rest. Rips open my chest, steps out from this crest. Don't take over me please, leave this lonely man. Please leave!

Out from the North into the South, Winter turned his frozen mouth. Tearing down the voices of living, leaving bodies buried in ice. The wrath of distant clouds, and the weeping of the ground, it will come. Cold wind carries the voice of doom, singing songs for the damned. Descending winters for all lands. All hope is gone in his hands. Out from the North into the South, Winter turned his frozen mouth. Slaying the oceans and darkening the sun, with little breeze, it will come. Enormous tide of burning cold storms. He will cleanse the land with a single breath. Descending winters for all lands. All hope is gone in his hands. Out from the North into the South, Winter turned his frozen mouth. No shelter can save us now, as the winds come roaring. There is no place to hide, the final season is close at hand. Taste the air so silent, it will come. Descending winters for all lands. All hope is gone in his hands. Out from the North into the South, Winter turned his frozen mouth.

Wash your hands and light the candles. Turn the lights out and I'll turn the music on. I'll serve you food you've never tasted before. And after the midnight hour I'll treat you like a real man should. This is a portrait of a clear mind, the profile of my kind. I'll bring flames on your face, and when I'm done you'll become one of mine. Her eyes shine like the glow of the sun as she poses without a shame. But if only she could know where she has come. This is a portrait of a clear mind, the profile of my kind. I'll bring flames on your face, and when I'm done you'll become one of mine. I'll take you down to the psycopath's lair. I'll drag you there to the psychopath's lair. I'll take you down, down to the psycopath's lair. I'll take you down to the psycopath's lair. This is a portrait of a clear mind, the profile of my kind. I'll bring flames on your face, and when I'm done you'll become one of mine.

I remember her, dark flowing hair. Eyes like deep blue waters and her skin so fair. I remember her, how she used to sing. Melodies so full of sorrow, dreams in the making. She was so fragile! Lying on my arms, not breathing. I can still hear the echo of her voice. And now as I hear them coming, I take her to our last dance. Lying on my arms, not breathing. I can still hear the echo of her voice. I remember her, delicate beauty. Her eyes so wise and knowing, when she looked at me. She was so fragile! Lying on my arms, not breathing. I can still hear the echo of her voice. And now as I hear them coming, I take her to our last dance. The red haze fading, my vision regaining. And on my arms I see her lifeless body. Realizing what I've done, anguish grips my heart. I close her eyes for the last time and she'll sing no more. She was so fragile! Lying on my arms, not breathing. I can still hear the echo of her voice. And now as I hear them coming, I take her to our last dance. Lying on my arms, not breathing. I can still hear the echo of her voice. And now as I hear them coming, I take her to our last dance.

The fountain runs quiet, through the emerald steps and lavender air. The statues praise the beauty of hers. Flowers bloom around her marble breasts. Silver drops of the open night sky light this ruined garden. The vines hanging on pillars and walls gather the light over the water. In the flame she was moving slow, whispering passionate words. As she breathed frost out of her warm, wet mouth, she felt like the ghost of Laura. Cold serenity lies within these secret halls, embracing me in her essence. The air so calm and still. And her voice leading me deeper, deeper inside. In the flame she was moving slow, whispering passionate words. As she breathed frost out of her warm, wet mouth, she felt like the ghost of Laura. Through the water and floating leaves, I'm following her soft call, into the throne of her fertile loins.

The velvet fog came after the sun wept her last rays. Shedding her tears for the night, the night she'll never see. The all seeing eye, the dead light of Luna, watched as the gloom gently closed the flowers. But the ones I laid upon her, stayed open to mourn my loss. The night air never hurt so deep. As it whispered praises of despair, to keep in this lonely heart. These fingers cut the wet flesh. Bleeding red rivers through my face. On my weak knees I wept, but Death stayed there. Until I lost her to gloom, beauty and despair. Please open your eyes. Please don't fade away. I won't let you leave me. I'll follow you through it all. Wherever it will lead me, I will follow. Deeper into the pain, further away for her. I step down to where tears remain. Over the frozen rivers. Gloom, beauty and despair! Gloom, beauty and despair! Through the land of the dead, forever lost and bound in woe. Gloom, beauty and despair! Gloom, beauty and despair! Of my ropes of sorrow, I wouldn't let go. They hanged me to this place I fell. Alone and blind I travel in my Hell. Forever and forever and forever alone.

It came with the nightfall, the dark that swallowed the stars. One by one it painted them black, and brought Horror to our hearts. It came down in the shape of rain, a wall of black waters. Spreading the end to the earth below, and I ran and left them all. Away from those dying voices, I escape the eye of the doom. The triumph of fear and ending lives. And I left them all and ran until I reached the shore. The waves greeted me with majestic mourn. To the sea I shed my last hope and the ocean carried me away. The sound of ending world was fading, until I only heard my heart in despair. Closed my eyes and fell into a sleep, relieving dream of the distant sun. "Awake" whispered the sea and my tearful eyes were open. The crystal night sky shone like water. The roof of eternity, ballet of million stars. But as I turned my eyes down to the horizon, the stars were fading one by one.

If I stay too quiet I can hear her walking by Death cold air is moving Like the touch of her hand Respect dying, towards our eyes Earth dies, flowers dead Silent whispers slowly flow The silence from beyond You'll come with me my precious light You stalk me through the shadows Just swallow the dark You'll come with me my precious light You stalk me through the shadows Just swallow the dark I've fought to take you back 'Cause my day is still burning My scream is flowing through hands But your flesh igniting I'm taking you down to the hole Bring on the scum for the flames You'll come with me my precious light You stalk me through the shadows Just swallow the dark You'll come with me my precious light You stalk me through the shadows Just swallow the dark If I stay too quiet I can hear her walking by

The strength of her pulse is breaking her chest. She’s getting wet from this feverish writhe. The midnight is cruel for a lonely girl. When the unknown slowly undresses her breasts. The voice and her eyes wide shut, the fever burns a mark on her bed. The path that she runs among these silent trees, leaves her body for me to claim. The veil of fog covers her velvet skin, as she kneels naked under the moon. The whispers from her lips and her screams, invite me to her ecstatic flame, over and over again. Her bed is covered in dirt and leaves, and she’s burning down on her knees. Midnight is cruel for a lonely girl, as she’s getting wet from this feverish writhe. The veil of fog covers her velvet skin, as she kneels naked under the moon. The whispers from her lips and her screams, invite me to her ecstatic flame, over and over again. The veil of fog covers her velvet skin, as she kneels naked under the moon. The veil of fog covers her velvet skin, as she kneels naked under the moon. The whispers from her lips and her screams, invite me to her ecstatic flame, over and over again. Again!

You'll awake life Through perceptive light In the face of your offense Bearing scarlet bark The second moon is Dropping her silver tears The gaze, the sway, you'll pay Through the summer, lost in pain Through her silvery body Grazing scars Her skin enchants me Towards the doom of spring So I find her In milk white light In this silver frosted night I place you in coffin moonlight I'm haunted by your touch My soul passing you You'll save my fear from this shame I know I ought to take your flame My touch will freeze your love Enthroned on your skin I offered to cross the water My blood curls, taken from light My heart bleeds for Her restless sleep I should fake a yawn Before I go away And when she lies silent Her beauty lights the room But now no other man Will taste her loins of doom I'm haunted by your touch My soul passing you You'll save my fear from this shame I know I ought to take your flame My touch will freeze your love Enthroned on your skin I offered to cross the water My blood curls
