Swallow the Sun
Album • 2007
Deep into the flesh the arrows cut, from the hope of a hunter's bow wounded we fall. With bleeding hearts we crawl, taking shelter from her arrows. Cut the trembling flesh, don't let the tears tame you, rip your arrows out and make them cut deeper. Crush my mouth for it still sings praises to you, run the blood out from my throat for I'm still yours. And the hope will die when the curtains fall and silence the pain. And the hope will die when the curtains fall and silence the pain. We drink from the well, the well of poisoned hope until the water will burn all pure hearts away. And the hope will die when the curtains fall and silence the pain. And the hope will die when the curtains fall and silence the pain. Keep your eyes on the wounds, those rivers will run dry soon. Will it leave you wanting more, the taste of flesh that bleeds in your honour? Cut the trembling flesh, don't let the tears tame you, rip your arrows out and make them cut deeper. Crush my mouth for it still sings praises to you, run the blood out from my throat for I'm still yours. And the hope will die when the curtains fall and silence the pain. And the hope will die when the curtains fall and silence the pain.

I'm buried in the snow as your blackened heart finally got frozen. No daylight in the horizon, your warm and loving flames of wrath shall be my guiding light in the silent hours. Light has faded as has the touch of your palms, no more songs of joy, only dreadful silence and painful memories hold me day after day. Was it my shadow that eclipsed the sun in your heart? Was the ice cold river your final relief? Light, joy, love, hope, trust, all is lost. These hours of despair, pitch black holes in my soul. All is lost, I can't forgive myself, I will follow you. Was it my shadow that eclipsed the sun in your heart? Was the ice cold river your final relief? Light, joy, love, hope, trust, all is lost. These hours of despair, pitch black holes in my soul. All is lost, I can't forgive myself, I will follow you. Was it my shadow that eclipsed the sun in your heart? Was the ice cold river your final relief? Light, joy, love, hope, trust, all is lost.

I curse the love for you and the pale souls you've tasted, the songs of filthy passion will soon turn to cries of pain. When I claim what is mine through the justice of suffering. When the paying of her sins comes closer the night will end in tears. The moment you dirt her skin with your fingers you will be sentenced the same. Every second with her I count, and for every second you will suffer too. No light will save them now when the words of hope have all been spoken. I wash the blood from my hands, let them lie silent and cold on the flowers. For my anger is greater than the hand that once swept your cheek, and my anger is greater than the human I was. I will claim what is mine through the justice of suffering. No light will save them now when the words of hope have all been spoken. I wash the blood from my hands, let them lie silent and cold on the flowers. Is this poison in your womb worth of the burning flesh in this pyre of ghost lovers? But every second with her I count, and for every second you will suffer too. The night will end, it will end in tears soon. No light will save them now when the words of hope have all been spoken. I wash the blood from my hands, let them lie silent and cold on the flowers.

Sweet fall, come and take me away from this pain, towards the dark womb of Winter. Sweet fall, come and take me away from this pain, towards the dark womb of Winter. Beautiful fall, kill the light of summer, and bless us with your shades. Sweet fall, chase away the sun, and lay down the veil of leaves. Sweet fall, chase away the sun, and lay down the veil of leaves. Beautiful fall, come and take me away from this pain. Towards the dark womb of November! To them you are the bringer of grief but you will lead me to hope, into the arms of Winter frost. Will you release me and silence those fears? I wait for your arrival and soon it will be too cold for the tears. The great clouds, I welcome your shields. My old friend will you lay me back to rest? The great clouds, I welcome your shields. My old friend will you lay me back to rest? I've been suffering so long without you, come and take me away from this pain.

The dead walk in the silent world, how the dead talk with empty words. Redemption by thought injection, and the dead march to the voice of deception. This is now a new beginning, there will be no creation from chaos. No light at the end just a faint glimpse of the forgotten. Screaming overcome by silence, suffocated by the unspoken. The dead walk with no fear, and the dead fall with the horrors of living. This is now a new beginning, there will be no creation from chaos. No light at the end just a faint glimpse of the forgotten. Murky demented eyes stare at the empty skies. Desperately searching for something, something that once was there. Murky demented eyes stare at the empty skies. Desperately searching for something, something that once was there. It's too late for salvation while falling to oblivion. We are doomed to stagnation to witness the inverse creation. This is now a new beginning, there will be no creation from chaos. No light at the end just a faint glimpse of the forgotten. Murky demented eyes stare at the empty skies. Desperately searching for something, something that once was there. Murky demented eyes stare at the empty skies. Desperately searching for something, something that once was there.

Fall deeper and deeper, don't forget what you have done. Did I ever say some things can't be undone? Fall into my darkest thoughts, no light and no hope! My dagger in your heart is the mark of my true love! Venomous lips and poisonous words that's what you are made of, my dear. Eyes wide shut, left to rot, no regrets, no regrets! Fall into my darkest thoughts, no light and no hope! My dagger in your heart is the mark of my true love!

Love is lost but not forgotten! Love is lost but not forgotten I keep repeating to myself every day. Too many times I have seen autumn leaves turn to snow. Flowers wither to dust but I promise they will suffer well. Cursed be the day when they took her away and left me to bleed to death. Too many times since then I have seen all beauty die. The lakes turn to ice but I swear I will have my revenge. But I swear I will have my revenge! I wander between two worlds, no one can see me. They just feel my cold breath behind their backs. No redemption for the lost souls, I am doomed to walk the earth. But I swear I will put them to eternal sleep, then I can leave.
