AKIN LYRICS

1. The 92nd Flight

Flying south, over a desert land
Long as
Find a water land on my side
There's a picture frame
My life burning in the flames
I'm crashing down, fire all around
Burn, I see no dawn
And my plane falling upon the ground
I can see mirror sand

In the darkness I can hear a voice
It's calling
It's calling I hear
It calling out my name

You gave me the will to carry on
In this struggle to survive
You were keeping me alive
And now I need your voice to guide me home
Point the way just like an arrow
Where it shows is shall be my road

Travelling east throung the mountains and the plain
Where it snows, where it hails and where it rains
Walking on through some foreign everglades
Frozen winds cut through me like razor-blades
If I die today they must know where my body lays
I carve my name upon a stone

In the darkness I can hear a voice
It's calling
It's calling I hear
It calling out my name

You gave me the will to carry on
In this struggle to survive
You were keeping me alive
And now I need your voice to guide me home
Point the way just like an arrow
Where it shows is shall be my road

2. Cassandra

Another day, another night that fades away
Another dream made up to keep me awake
Another charm created to make me believe
That my whole life is not so vain

Can't make my conscience clear
When did it start to make me grieve?
I only know what I foresee
In the meanders of my brain

I got the whole world in my mind
Everyone else is blind
But all that I can do
Is watch the fall of human race
Please tell me why I deserve this misery
I don't know who can I tell
Every part of my existence feels like hell?
Please cast the spell!

Future or past no one believe
The things I guess th poor outcast
Surely insane
More or less nevertheless
Whatever I can do
These cruel nightmares always come true

Prisoner of my own
Fear at any time
They can appear sooner or later
It will make me burn out in front of you

I got the whole world in my mind
Everyone else is blind
But all that I can do
Is watch the fall of human race
Please tell me why I deserve this misery
Late at night I cannot breathe
And I pray for death to come soon and be my release

3. The City In The Sea

A stir is in the air, the waves
There is a movement there
As if the towers had thrust aside
In sinking the dull tide
The waves have now a redder glow
The hours are breathing faint
And low down down that town shal settle

Death has reared himself a throne
In a strange city lying alone
Far down within the dim west
Where the good and bad
And the worst and the best
Have gone to their eternal rest.

There shrines palaces and towers resemble nothing
That is ours
Around by lifting winds forgot resignedly
Beneath the sky the melancholy waters lie

Beneath the sky the melancholy waters lie
While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks gigantically down

No rays from the holy heaven come down
On the long night-time of that town.
But light from but the lurid sea
Streams up the turrets and gleams
Up the pinnacles far and free

Là des temples ouverts et des tombes béantes
Bâillent au niveau de vagues étincelantes
Mais ni la richesse de chaque idole
Ni les morts ne tentent les eaux hors
De leur lit car aucune lame ne s'enroute hélas
I li long de cette solitude de verre aucun gonflement
Ne raconte qu'il peut être
Des vents sur quelque mer plus heureuse du loin
Aucune houle ne suggére que des vents
Ont été sur des mers d'une moins
Hideuse sérénité
Mais voici! Un branle est dans l'air la vague
Il y a un mouvement comme si les tours
Avaient repoussé en sombrant doucement
L'onde morne comme si les faîtes avaient
Alors faiblement fait le vide dans les cieux
Figés les vagues ont à présent une lueur plus
Rouge les heures respirent sourdes et faibles
Et quand parmi les gémissements autres que de la terre
Trés bas thés bas cette ville hors d'ici s'établira
L'enfer se levant de mille trônes lui rendra hommage

Death has reared himself a throne in a strange city
Lying alone far down within the dim west
Where the good and the bad
And the worst and the best
Have gone in their eternal rest.

Beneath the sky the melancholy waters lie
While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks gigantically down

From the sun and the stars whence I had drown
Froth a passionate light such for my spirit was fit

4. Opium

[Moonspell cover]

Opium, desire or will?
Inspiration bound from an elegant seed
Subversion, through smoke I foresee
Erotic motions of lesser gods in ectasy

Opium, bring me forth another dream
Spawn worlds of flesh and red,
little jewels of atrocity
Opium, I sleep in debauchery
And burn with you
when you burn in Me

Opium, we fantasize
as we fuse with your root
You are a strange flower,
we are your strangest fruit

Opium, it burns in me and you
Opium, it burns for me and for you

5. Dreamland (Acoustic)

By a route obscure and lonely
Haunted by ill angels only
Where an Eidolon name Night
On a black throne reigns upright
I have reached those lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime
Out of space, out of time

By the mountains, by the lakes, that thus outspread
The lone waters, lone
Lone waters, lone and dead
Lone and dead
The sad waters, sad and chilly
Murmuring ever
With the snows of the lolling lily
By the mountains near the river

With forms that no man can discover
For the tears that drip all over

By the grey woods, by the lakes, the new encamp
By the dismal tarns
By the dismal tarns and pools
Most unholy
There go the friends long given
To the Earth and Heaven
By a route so obscure and lonely
Haunted by ill angels only

With forms that no man can discover
For the tears that drip all over

Seas that restlessly aspire
Surging unto sides of fire, unto skies of fire

With forms that no man can discover
For the tears that drip all over

6. To One In Paradise (Alternative)

Thou wast all that to me
For whom my soul did pine
A green island in sea
A fountain and a shrine

A dream to bright to last
But to be overcast
A voice from future cries
My spirit hovering lies

The light of life is over
No more shall bloom the thunder blasted tree
Or the stricken eagle soar!
Such language holds the solemn sea
To sands upon the shore
For alas with me
The light of life is over

And all my nightly dreams
Are where thy dark eyes glance
And where my footstep gleams
In what ethereal dance

The light of life is over
No more shall bloom the thunder blasted tree
Or the stricken eagle soar!
Such language holds the solemn sea
To sands upon the shore
For alas with me
The light of life is over

The light of life is over
No more shall bloom the thunder blasted tree
Or the stricken eagle soar!
Such language holds the solemn sea
To sands upon the shore
For alas with me
The light of life is over
