Album Lyrics
1. Mercyside
You can hate me for
All the things I do
You should let my heart go
Whatever you decide to do
You can make me bleed
You can make me cry
You can make me fall
You can make me live or die
And I wonder how
And you wonder why
For years our world has been falling apart
But we’re tied up by words
The surface is smooth and cold
But underneath the blood always boils
It’s getting harder
Getting worse now
Everytime
We’re growing colder
Digging deeper
In our minds
You laughed, but your smile never reached your eyes
You cried, but your eyes never shed a tear
And I wonder how
You laughed, and you untied your hair
There are things to do
Things we never could tell
Name me
Use me
Blame me
Every time you hurt
Your favours are not what I deserve
2. Sanguine Sky
Sanguine Sky
My blood is tainted; azure blue
A setting sun bleeding
Into an ocean of tears, for you
Into an ocean of tears, for you
It’s an exodus from the dark
The night is breathing; the night is exhaling
Falling, falling – up a staircase
Towards the moon, the stars,
And a Venus-kissed Mars
The ever-warring Mars
Blood runs south
As the days grow darker
And this fight is eating at me
I see the dead awaken
My fate forsaken; I’m free
I am talking on a hidden line
She says she’s feeling; she says she is dead
She says – there is a downward spiral
From the moon, the stars,
The ever-warring Mars
The ever-warring Mars
Blood runs south
As the days grow darker
And this fight is eating at me
I see the dead awaken
My fate forsaken; I’m free
Blood runs south
As the days grow darker
And this fight is eating at me
I see the dead awaken
My fate forsaken; I’m free
Blood runs south
As the days grow darker
And this fight is eating at me
I see the dead awaken
My fate forsaken; I’m free
3. Open Ground
Digging
In the mud
Deep in
In the mud
Sweat swings down my face
My sweet taste; like blood
Hide me with locks from your head
I can not win
Bleeding, dying,
Digging
For your part
The torch went out
The room went dark
Falling
In the fire
Crawling
Through the night
Tears fall down my face
My sweet taste; like blood
Cover me with locks from your head
Bleeding, dying,
Digging
For your part
The torch went out
The room went dark
Your savagery’s always new
Deep in my back
Full of fear
I cannot see
Pain that tricked your screams
I cannot see
Bleeding, dying,
Digging
For your part
The torch went out
The room went dark
From the corner of My eye
I feel them closing in
I know they caught
The scent of me
And then they went for you
[A curse on you to stay with me]
And then they went for me
4. The Ravens
Only ashes and bones remain
My hair is wet, my eyes are sore
The past has been fed to the flames
I cannot breathe any more
I try to stand on my feet, but I fall
I try to walk, but I crawl
Live as we knew it is over, and you are gone
Forever gone
I will not bend
To our cross
I will not kneel
At your feet
Greed and anger
Made us younger
Couldn’t save us when the tower fell
All my strength and
All my hunger
All is lost and none will live to tell
In the ruins of days gone by
A young affection, a velvet sky
A slave to greed
I do not feel regret anymore
I sense a presence of birds
Encircling me
And I am gone
Forever gone
I will not bend
To our cross
I will not kneel
At your feet
Greed and anger
Made us younger
Couldn’t save us when the tower fell
All my strength and
All my hunger
All is lost and none will live to tell
Til jord skal vi bli
Dark
In the night
Dead
In the moon
I will not kneel
I will not kneel
I Would rather die facing my doom
I will not kneel
I will not kneel
5. Destination Departure
Caressing the anger
Nothing will ever be the same again
But you are most most beautiful
But you are most most beautiful
This is my destination
Left behind in desolation
But you are most beautiful
But you are most beautiful
Leave me
You talk like you know, but you don’t
And it shows
She should have out-lived me
I listened before, but I’m not any more
So just leave me
I tried so hard
To find something that I
Could believe in
But there’s nothing there
So there’s nothing to feel
Who’s gonna be here
If you want me to leave?
Who’s gonna be here?
Caressing the anger
This is my destination
But you are most most beautiful
But you are most most beautiful
Leave me
You talk like you know, but you don’t
And it shows
She should have out-lived me
I listened before, but can’t any more
So just leave me
I tried so hard
To find something that I
Could believe in
But there’s nothing there
And there’s no-one who cares
Who’s gonna be here
If you want me to leave?
Who’s gonna be here
If you want me to leave?
Who’s gonna let it
When you cannot make it stop?
Can you hang on for today?
6. Down
My violent mood swings peak
And my hands are as heavy as rocks
I have no time and no space
I am falling behind
Just take me home
My patience has all run out
And I feel like yelling; – it is too much
I have abandoned all charm and all grace
I have fallen behind
There is no god
The night is cursed
Loud and blurred
Still it rains
It rains like hell
Rain on empty shells
My violent mood swings peak
And my hands are as heavy as rocks
I have no time and no space
I have fallen behind
There is no god
Screaming voices
Ring in my ears
I don’t want to know their names
7. Fate
I’ve been trying to participate in masquerades
The throne’s been empty for too long
The paradise for those who play along
And the fortunate ones
I’ve been listening to the voice at night and he is right
I am the chosen one
And my shepherd, he has paid my Prynne (related to an english purtitant leader)
I will go and smile
I’ve been begging for the public eye, now watch me fly
Can you see what I’ve become
So expose me, I shall be released
From the flesh-pain so sweet
I was walking through the valley of the living dead
Didn’t help the tears I shed
Always chasing those elusive dreams
A drop of blood in the street
8. Lotus
When the morning weeps
And the sky is near
And the road you choose
And my hand is slain
In the morning light
All is clean and done
And the spider webs
Shine like silver threads
But you must not fear the dark
I will watch over your sleep
Until the morning comes
All wounds have to fade
I will, I will
I will watch over your sleep
Lead me
Please guide me
Unchain me
Untie me
I see your shadow
Shake on the wall
But I cannot hear you voice when it calls
Can you tell dreams from reality
Can you tell sense from insanity
Sometimes it all melts down
And mix into half-lies
Half-lies
But you must not feel the dark
I will watch over your sleep
Until the morning comes
All wounds have to fade
I will, I will
I will watch over your sleep
But you must not fear the dark
I will watch over you sleep
Until the morning comes
All wounds have to fade
I will, I will
I will watch over your sleep
9. Sacrilege
Millions crusading against mocking heresy
Madmen race to enforce the book that answers all our needs
Tongues tuned with razorblades teach us divine misdeeds
Our clerics will kill to make us stay down on our knees
Another war is over
And the pain is almost gone
Each wound has been healing
We’re so eager to move on
Tongues tuned with razorblades
Still teach divine misdeeds
Our clerics will kill to make us stay down on our knees
10. Deadlands
I failed to impress you, and you
Feel free to abuse me
All has been in vain
We’re through
So please stop pretending
Years I spent were wasted on you
Words have been spoken
My chains have been broken
This street has an end, I have failed
Never will again
My life was invaded by you
This image of straws that break against the wind
We’re through
But the world keeps spinning
Endlessly I have no answers for you
Weight off my shoulders
Unleashed
No more hiding –
Leaving deadlands
Release me
On your own
Bitter and old
Dead and gone
Carved in stone
