Swallow the Sun
Album • 2009
I grasp the soil from this tomb and cover my face, this face of a murderer! Serpents betrayed me, They crawled in my head and betrayed me! Old woods, they misled me, cut my face and misled me! The owls are not what they seem, they made me do it. Am I a ghost amongst them? But this blood is real that stains my hands. Tortured by these voices like flies around me. They chased me here, and you invited me in. These woods breathe evil, rust on the ground and the arches of fire. These woods breathe evil, here in the circle of eerie winds. Towards the black heart of magnetic North! Black lodge and red rooms of insanity, here I reached the point of no return. With my hands around you they chased me here... To this hotel of ghosts, and they showed me this room. This doom with a view, and you invited me in. Tortured by these voices like flies around me. They chased me here, and you invited me in. These woods breathe evil, rust on the ground and the arches of fire. These woods breathe evil, here in the circle of eerie winds. Tortured by these voices like flies around me. They chased me here, and you invited me in. These woods breathe evil, rust on the ground and the arches of fire. These woods breathe evil, here in the circle of eerie winds. These woods, they led me back here to your buried body!

Hold me, this world is falling down on me. Feel it, is it the dead or Death that walks among us? Close your eyes but stay awake, they are trying to crawl inside your head. Wish I could end this all today, but like all good our hope fades away. Hold me, few more steps and I will fall. Watch me, I'll take you with me, too sad to leave alone. Burden on my shoulders, the curse of man. No stepping back, I'll take you there. No life, no cries, no more sleepless nights. Close your eyes but stay awake, they are trying to crawl inside your head. Wish I could end this all today, but like all good our hope fades away.

Too late to leave, blinded by the last light. Too far, too late, too deep to escape from the hands of this night. Winter has our hearts, it finally tore us apart. The cries of loss ripping wings, we are frozen on the lake. So close to watch her die, but too far to leave together. This tomb of ice finally tore us apart. We are sleepless swans frozen on the lake. Lay down your eyes, blinded by the last light. The sun won't light them any longer. The deeper the dark, the clearer we see. Escaping Death only made it stronger. The cries of loss ripping wings, we are frozen on the lake. So close to watch her die, but too far to leave together. This tomb of ice finally tore us apart. We are sleepless swans frozen on the lake. Waiting, silence, burning touch of air. Eyes, frozen, Orion, the map of sky is quiet. November sang us songs of goodbye, but foolish hearts hailed the wait. Winter has our hearts now, it finally tore us apart. We are sleepless swans frozen on the lake.

And Heavens cried blood as I swallowed the poison from her lips again. And Heavens cried blood, I felt no regrets for her death. No need for sympathies, what she got is what she deserved. She blackened the world, she blackened the sun. These drops of blood won't wash away your sins, I buried you deep to forget the pain. But every night I see you through sleep, another cold night, never ending Hell. Skies opened, red started to flow, it is murder, sun shed its last rays. The seraphs fall, the angels are gone, the end will surely catch us all. And Heavens cried blood as I swallowed the poison from her lips again. And Heavens cried blood, I felt no regrets for her death. And Heavens cried blood as I swallowed the poison from her lips again. And Heavens cried blood, I felt no regrets for her death.

The end will surely catch us all.

"Father, why did you drown me here in these waters? And Father, why did you leave me here in deep waters? Father, it's getting darker here as the years pass. And Father, I'm the whispers on the lake, lights on water". My child, I carry the burden of sorrow with your soul, the songs you gently sing to me. But the love was never stronger than the grief of your unholy price. I curse you forever in your watery grave, you passenger of evil, for taking her away from me. The blood of your arrival, cutting knives and shadows. A ceremony of pain. Through living flesh to the dead, Both in my bloody hands but only one cried. In blazing fury I carried you through the woods while the trees tried to stop me in horror. Your cry echoed on the lake as I laid you down on the boat. "The tears made circles on the still water, the circles made the waves. The waves raised the tide and made rain fall, raised the lights on the lake. The tears made circles on the still water, the circles made the waves. The waves raised the tide and made rain fall, raised the lights on the lake". Through the mist, further on the lake, in the eye of still water. Into the deepest pit you silently fell, slowly in the throat of dark water. "The tears made circles on the still water, the circles made the waves. The waves raised the tide and made rain fall, raised the lights on the lake. The tears made circles on the still water, the circles made the waves. The waves raised the tide and made rain fall, raised the lights on the lake".

"Tomorrow will be worse" I heard her say as she closed the curtains and walked away. Tied on the bed by the hands of the past, memories too painful to be opened. My body crushed and burned from escaping life the sleep will come with horrors of you. New moon would you open the gates, and take me away from this night? New moon between the curtains walk me away on your silvery bridge. New moon lay your mercy on me tonight. The despair of morning sun, beams of unholy light, no one can read the signs of these eyes. The prayer of escape, I will never heal. The flames on my skin to wash all bad away was unpurifying, kiss of suffering. But I judge myself to give it all away for you. New moon would you open the gates, and take me away from this night? New moon between the curtains walk me away on your silvery bridge. New moon lay your mercy on me tonight.

Memories start to fade, only a gray thought of something. Was it even me, all the scars remind me I was somewhere, somewhere. Forgotten you were so don't dare to rise, stay in your tomb whoever you were. I washed myself with pain a long time ago, so deep that nothing can reach me. These deep shadows of my heart, crushing pain, it follows in voices. The rooms, the garden leaving me to bleed the truth of it all. Who ever is sentenced to love will bow down as a servant of sorrow. Searching memories of the days of light, It will kill me even a touch of warmth. But I long for it more than the stone I've turned to. These deep shadows of my heart, crushing pain, it follows in voices. The rooms, the garden leaving me to bleed the truth of it all. Who ever is sentenced to love will bow down as a servant of sorrow. Alone in this castle, in these halls of gloom. An old shape once a brave man now the servant of sorrow. I washed myself with pain a long time ago, so deep that nothing can reach me. These deep shadows of my heart, crushing pain, it follows in voices. The rooms, the garden leaving me to bleed the truth of it all. Who ever is sentenced to love will bow down as a servant of sorrow.

I lost the last of my hope on that night when the morning never came. Staring in the eye of all those ghosts of loss, and like the plague it crushed me on the eve of a new moon. I am made of filth, of lies, no clean blood runs in me. I've turned to everything I hate, black blood and dirt in a human shell. Leaving these trails of betrayal. Cold lifeless flesh, a so called man. Choking on the pain of others, in my own lies I drown. Happiness was all I reached for, but sure no one deserves it. That dim light I still held finally faded. There was so much in me that I trusted but so little I knew. The weakness I held was stronger than anything. And it turned me into arrows for the ones I truly loved. Forgive me for falling, I know you all trusted in me. But I'm made of filth, of lies, no good blood runs in me. Forgive me all, no more hope!
