AMORPHIS LYRICS

4. Illusion

[performed by Amorphis]

I stand in the outskirts
Of a blazing central fire
I blend into shadows
And hide withing the night
At this final moment
It appears in front of me
Like swelling of the bones
And horns emerge from the skull

The world's distance song
And the cries from the dark
Can't hear them anymore
It's all an illusion
The song forms the world
And the dark hides the cries
Can't hear them anymore
It's all an illusion

I touch my forehead
I feel the scars on my wounds
Why don't you speak to me now
Have you come from within

Have you come from within
To show me the way

5. Hopeless Days (Live)

[performed by Amorphis]

I never wanted
I never wanted to be born
Into this cruel world
Into this cruel world I was torn

Left behind with grief
Lacerated by life
Shackled into caves of grieves

From an union
From an union of force and fear
Arose my kin
Arose my kin enslaved

In hopelessness
In hopelessness and suspicion
The seed of eternal tomorrow

I was born a captive
A captive of the night
In between
Hopeless days

I was born on sleet
On sleet covered roads
I've been driven by howling winds

A beggar, a drifter
A refugee from my own life
And a companion
Companion of the ghostly lights

But still they came
They found the way to get to me
They beckoned me to follow

I was born a captive
A captive of the night
In between
Hopeless days

I was born on sleet
On sleet covered roads
I've been driven by howling winds

6. Every Time I Die

[performed by Amorphis]
[originally by Children Of Bodom]

The faint blaze of the candle of my life,
slowly dying like a fire in a pouring rain.
No sparks of hope inside,
no shooting stars on my sky.
On broken wings, no flying high...

Another night, another demise,
Cadaverous wind blowing cold as ice...
I'll let the wind blow out the light
cause its gets more painful every time I die.

Out of strength to fight.
I cannot take another night.
I cannot take it no more.
Lust of light slips through my fingers
like blood on my arms.
Black candle wax has buried me...

Another night, another demise,
Cadaverous wind blowing cold as ice...
I'll let the wind blow out the light
cause its gets more painful every time I die.
