Void Of Tranquillity Lyrics - Dark Tranquility

[lyrics: Sundin, Stanne] 

In orbit they pass around you - the memories from abandoned past 

Images from within your mind bring unknown feelings into your veins 

Delve into thy twillight past, a voyage done before 

The borderland 'twixt life and death - existing evermore 

Emerging from material guise - an ever-living soul 

Thy spirit lives forever more, in spite of aim or goal 

The forces of your vital mind deteriates vagely 

as you're about to pass away The darkness that 

surrounds you fades... 

You reach out to touch, to feel the eternal 

forgivness for thy impure soul 

Desperation fills your mind - approach the centre 

Centre of infernal salvation and infernal death 

Enter to the plain of life, to knowledge loomed through time 

An ever-living certainty where life is formed to chime 

Foolishness and wisdom walk gently hand hand in hand 

Embraced in darkest universe as contraries blend as one 

Fear fills your mind on this ongoing journey 

journey to a thousand secrets untold 

Credlous at first to this place of wonder 

Wonder's so real - it could be an illusion 

Through dark veils of destiny - Realm of shades revealed 

Through dark veils of destiny - Infinite life concealed 

Your soul now levitates slowly and below your body fades 

Your conciousness remains but thy skin will soon rot away 

Visions from an obscure rality appear as your soul departs 

This once so undisturbed and now frail and feeble world 

Brought forth, the abyss now appears - foulmouthed temptations call me near 

Dark visions laughing over me - if swollowed I will cease to be 

Tempted to this world beyond - eager to break the bond 

The sacred promise of an earthly stay - now broken as you writhe in dismay 

Come to where all life descends in brimful harmony 

Cautious, interlacing, they engrave what they shall be 

All bounds cannot be broken or confusion will prevail 

- lifeless dark eternity of chaos and despair 

Indescribable light descends between spheres 

Spheres that behold that nondescript fear 

Thought of the sins that were done in the past 

the past is forgotten and the present will last 

Through dark veils of destiny - Realm of shades revealed 

Through dark veils of destiny - Infinite life concealed 

Floating through these halls of light, emotions burst within 

Pure beauty of divinity enrobes remaining sin 

Alone, enthralled, I bow this force, paternal majesty 

Freed from anguish, freed from hate - into my destiny 

Into the void of tranquillity 

Through the rise and fall of worlds, one greater mind prevails 

Conjuring new creations as it watches the old ones fail 

Eternal coil of time and place - reality and tale 

The answers to all questions hide within this astral vale 

Passed through tranquillity - aeons now flow away 

Claimants of destiny - death can no more hold sway 

Forced to return - departure of soul 

Material world - arrival as told
