Fredrik Åkesson [Guitar]

She told me why
She told me lies
I always take care of this
I told her how
I've always stayed
Always waited for nothing

When I get out of here
Will I leave you behind?
I found that the years passed despite

When I get out of here
Will I leave you behind?
I found that the years passed despite

And I can see you
Running through the fields of sorrow
Yes I can see you
Running through the fields of sorrow

When you get out of here
When you leave me behind
You find that the years passed us by

When you get out of here
When you leave me behind
You find that those years passed us by

And I can see you
Running through the fields of sorrow
Yes I can see you
Running through the fields of sorrow

Long days
Slow waste
Sew lies
Sow hate

So many years to clean the slate
Endless despair within its wake
His touch soiling what used to be clean
His gaze burning on the edge of our dreams

No more
Cold pace
Slow days (?)

And again he rides in
It's September and he covets the gullible
Skeletal wish, hunter
A thousand lies
Cast from the throne of secrecy

Hear him spewing forth a meaning to miserables lies
See the twisted hand of doubt seal the affair
The insect trust, believer
Your body a vehicle to

Pearls before swine they are nothing but blind
Submit to nothing and swallow my spit of scorn
Invisible king, dying
Procession of woe, struck down by sorrow

A burden so great
Weighs heavy on old and withered beliefs
The swift solution crumbles
Beneath the mock notes of a masterpiece
Death in his eyes, waiting
Spiraling judgement, provoked in the rains

This futile test drowned in the levee of deception

In the year of his sovereign
Rid us of your judgement
Heir apparent

Liquid is in your throat
For hopeless delight
After all you fell in love with death
Life has aborted
All you've had and all you became
The night is calling, you pray forth
A barren waste is your land
Crops they were sown to die
This skin is a mirror
The eyes hover with ignorance
Hell throb from your lips
Sucked in and safe from the world of sleep
All years caring for a liar
The barren drift road is winding higher
You're a moth too close to the fire
You are stuck in a beautiful future
Changing and waiting and seeking the truth of it all
Fleeting in sorrow
Pushing your spirit away
Seeking the weakness of dislike
Whispered from the heart
To be, we're all in the mourning
To despair
[?]
Cries out: ""The restless will also... die.""
Resurrection covered with death
Drawing the life under one
A fact tied to the earth
The soul's a victim, a follower
Oh, mother!
[Incoherent growling]
For us to see
The blink of an eye
And the pride of a mother
Drawn close in a mother's son
And the love from a father
Was used by a father's son
Over warrior's token
Misspoken lives on
The language unimportant
So fair and so just
All the land is taken

I once upon a time
Carried a burden inside
Some will ask goodbye
A broken line but underlined
There's an ocean of sorrow in you

Sorrow in me

Saw movement in their eyes
Said I no longer knew the way
Given up the ghost
A passing minds and its a fear
And the wait for redemption ahead

Waiting to fade

Fading again

If death should take me now
Count my mistakes and let me through
Whisper in my ear
Taken more than we've received
And the ocean of sorrow is you

I, lost all I had (one April day)
I, turned to my friends (nothing to see)
I, wrote down a name (and read it twice)
I, wallow in shame

I, said that I love (eternal skis)
I, cling to my past (like childish dreams)
I, promised to stay (and dwell my grief)
I, went far away

I see red spilled 'neath my feet
Lead me through wastelands of deceit
Rest your head now, don't you cry
Don't ever ask the reason why

Kept inside our idle race
Grow seven idols, false embrace
Rest your head now don't you cry
Don't ever ask the reason why

Will their children cry
When their mother dies
And in the autumn of their lives
Will they feel the same?

[reversed lyrics 2:03-2:22]

The longing for me
Comin' down like hail
Why did you leave me?

Come here inside
And tell me how
How in my final days
You found around

Your concern
The signal for us to end our lives
To wipe beneath the watches
And you wait forever

The night comes high
Your weakness
Storing trace on your eyes
So I left you alone
We all left you alone

[reversed lyrics 7:21-7:24]

Lock the children away from harm
They'll lock all your reason why
Seeking (?) with a dagger
Skin is blocked by the years of trial

You felt abandoned in the fog of flesh
Sitting in place from the dead
Awaiting the face of the moon to ascend
You follow the siren in your head

In your head

Two years
In your heart
One moment of doubt

Two lives
Torn apart
One second from now

Held him
In your arms
Your fever subside
Always safe from harm
Kept demons inside

Still you always start runnin'
Touch the light
From the moon
Some way mother cried
Left us space here

Caught up in emotion, never once do you
Climb down off your pedestal and put yourself in my shoes
Your insult is the result of your insecurity
I won't be responsible for your lack of trust in me

Now I realize she has taken all I am
I realize it now, so I'll take back who I am
I'm gonna lay her down

Sucking on my energy, won't you think before you speak?
You're damn right I been sincere now
Kiss the ground beneath my feet
Giving all I got
All my heart and soul
You make a mother fucker crazy, what you've done you'll never know

Now I realize she has taken all I am
I realize it now, so I'll take back who I am
I'm gonna lay her down
I'll give you all that I am

I gave you strength
And I gave you thought
I let you inside
Inside, inside...

Now I realize she has taken all I am
I realize it now, so I'll take back who I am
I'm gonna lay her down
I'm allowed to drink what I've found
My finger in your face, gonna lay your ass down
Lay, I'm gonna lay her down

Caught up in emotion, never once do you
Climb down off your pedestal and put yourself in my shoes
Your insult is the result of your insecurity
I won't be responsible for your lack of trust in me

Now I realize she has taken all I am
I realize it now, so I'll take back who I am
I'm gonna lay her down

Sucking on my energy, won't you think before you speak?
You're damn right I been sincere now
Kiss the ground beneath my feet
Giving all I got
All my heart and soul
You make a mother fucker crazy, what you've done you'll never know

Now I realize she has taken all I am
I realize it now, so I'll take back who I am
I'm gonna lay her down
I'll give you all that I am

I gave you strength
And I gave you thought
I let you inside
Inside, inside...

Now I realize she has taken all I am
I realize it now, so I'll take back who I am
I'm gonna lay her down
I'm allowed to drink what I've found
My finger in your face, gonna lay your ass down
Lay, I'm gonna lay her down

I am the sin inside
Mountains reach and now the burnings gone
And when I rise again
The light you see won't be yours to bend

All your threats don't mean anything to me
Suicide or useless plea
All you want is for me to sympathize
Let it go, now fuck your selfish lies
Let it go, you don't have my sympathy
No sympathy

I was an angel, you
Shred my wings and left me begging you
And when I rise again
Begging me will be your punishment

All your threats don't mean anything to me
Suicide or useless plea
All you want is for me to sympathize
Let it go, now fuck your selfish lies
Let it go, you don't have my sympathy

Dig into your wrists you're gonna miss
Any veins, tortured soul
You got no guts or gun so give it up
Get on up and hit the door
Take the center stage where you're sure to make the latest
Stomach's feeling weak
Fall on your face, admit your disgrace
There's no sympathy
No sympathy...

All your threats don't mean anything to me
Suicide or useless plea
All you want is for me to sympathize
Let it go, now fuck your selfish lies
Let it go, you don't have my sympathy
No, you don't have my sympathy

Here I am with everything I wanted from the start
Singing as I'm working to my left and maybe know we are

Always alright, yeah
Always alright

Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down

Despite resistance, I've gone the distance
Though I did not travel alone
Found the one I didn't think I'd find
Soon enough we'll be coming home

Always alright, yeah
Always alright

Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down

Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Going on to find my way, turn around
No matter what I am, I'll drag me down

Hello, welcome you to the ride
To this hellish ride
I trust you brought your
Will to make this true
Hello, welcome you to the game
To my useless game
I trust you left your
Patience on the ride

Why don't you beg for something to make you strong?
I beg for something to change

So I... I don't mind
I don't care
When I lie to myself
It's better here
I lie so I don't care
Soon the ride starts over
And the game begins again

Wake up, direct your tension to the right
And you will find
The many faces you pretend to deny

Why don't you beg for something to make you strong?
I beg for something to change

So I... I don't mind, no
I don't care
When I lie to myself
It's better here
I lie so I don't care
Soon the ride starts over
And the game begins again

When I lie to myself
It's better here
I lie so I don't care
When I lie
