The Pain Is Still Mine Lyrics - The Adversary - Ihsahn

The word is easy 

Dripping sweet and cocky from the tongue 

Vaguely describing the taste of blood. 

A distant cry arise 

From the fathomless well 

That is my soul. 

I can not hear the words 

So I throw my heart in 

Like a coin 

And wish that it would sink forever. 

A purpose, a sacrifice 

Or merely temptation? 

Is my solitude anything but a perversion 

Of my vanity?

From MetroLyrics to You: Our Classic Christmas Playlist 

I never cared for this weak inclination 

This paranoid tendency 

To flock. 

And in between all the noise 

All the guilt 

A silence would carry my spirit away 

From diminishing obsessions. 

Away from fools and poisonous flies. 

The birth of a dreamer. 

Behold, an angel of vengeance 

A lion 

A sword of fire 

Alas, the burden of my heart 

Is violence undone 

Pain unfulfilled 

Silence. 

Photos 

When I finally cut deep 

Into the flesh of guilt 

The un-naked body of shame 

And the veins of repentance 

Open wide 

Sending rivers of blood 

Into my mouth 

The pain is still mine.
