The Sweet Suffering Lyrics - The Crestfallen - Anathema

As a shadow is cast overhead 

I rejoice in the coming of the gloom 

Lifting my eyes to view what, to me, is beauty 

I decipher what is read in the cloud 

The verse is shouting out and ringing in my ears 

The claps of thunder, scared? No, me I revere 

in the enchantment of mother nature 

Her caress it soothes and brings me joy 

Kneeling in the rainfall 

Wind's whispers beckoning 

Inhaling the sweet scent 

Elation is overwhelming 

The way is dim, but somehow I find it 

One by one the victims of life are dwindling 

Me, take me grief no more if death will save me 

Take me, save me, show me salvation 

Lead me a sacred path, reinstate creation 

Show me joy, grief, pride 

and show me your envy 

The way is dim but somehow I find it.
