Alone '94 Lyrics - Skydancer/of Chaos And Eternal Night - Dark Tranquillity

Let me die (let me die) 

I cried as the curtain fell 

And I stared in hate at the world before me 

My weeping eyes could not bear to tell 

Of the shattered kingdom in ruins before me 

What became of the lands that were? 

A pearl in the nest of memories 

Forever lost 

Departed by the minds of men 

Scavengers, feeding on your mother's blood 

Parasites of life 

With my heart I condemn your ignorant ways 

Like the leaves of the high trees 

I wither and fall 

Borne by autumnal winds 

To my funeral hall

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

I'm all alone 

In the grip of the silent sadness 

I have been told to honour life 

And what therein I'll find 

But if all I see is darkness 

Let me die and wake up blind 

...as the gleaming blade before me 

Singing lullabies of loss 

(let me die) 

Whispering "death is your redeem 

To the paradise you've lost" 

Mankind 

Evoker of inferno 

Let me burn your honoured crown of creation 

And dethrone you to ashes 

For aeons to come 

Photos 

Why should I stay here where I do not belong? 

Of weakness burns my within 

An empty shell 

I've lost the way to the sanctity I need 

I'll greet the dawn that brings no life 

No frail beams of sun to cleanse the black night 

My mournful roam has ended 

I hide in the shadows while biding my time 

Sheltered from this world which disorderly rhyhme 

With the fury of damnation 

...damnation 

Once I held in my hand the starlight of eden 

And the white sky lay open in a soul that was free 

[but the years flew so fast as the shadows were cast 

And I woke up one morning with no reason to be] 

I'm all alone 

In the shade of the nameless sorrow 

(sorrow) 

I'm all alone 

Within a shadowfire of fear 

Take me home from whence I came 

Where I'll get light 

To feed my flame of life 

...or my heart will die without a whisper of hope
