DARKLANDS LYRICS

1. Dead But Dreaming

[music & lyric: jakob andersson]

Death reigns even in solitude - Spawn of such raging hate
In the city doth asleep - Underneath the sand and stones
R´lyeh, the place of my dreams - Sunken so long ago
Awake ye demon without a mouth

In the town of wing and claws - High priest of the past awakes
The Absu roils, the sea turns red - Yes, he´s rising from the deep

Dead but dreaming

Turns his face towards the sky - The sun goes down and daylight dies
Ancient evil, demon from the sea - Hear my prayer, let me come with thee

In the town of wing and claws - High priest of the past awakes
The Absu roils, the sea turns red - Yes, he´s rising from the deep

Dead but dreaming

2. Diablerie

[music: sanga | lyric: burvall]

Lay your head down on my bed of petals
Prepare to let me take you away to serve me always
Mortal soul for you I will be
For you I will raise the ground and bring the heavens down

You are my fate, you´re my dreams and you belong to me
The yearning sounds you make they leave me restless for the embrace

My blood is up by having you near, but your skin is dead cold
Our eyes they meet, but yours are absent

You are my fate, you´re my dreams and you belong to me
The yearning sounds you make they leave me restless for the embrace

3. Embody

[music: sanga | lyric: barthold]

Your eyes they are the death of me
But never to be given - I am lost into your beauty
The winter of my lust

Your radiance is hurting inside of me
Strenght and warmth have left me

The winter of my lust - The winter of my longing

In this nightly chill - In her face
In the snow - Which I embody

Your eyes they are the death of me
But never to be given - I am lost into your beauty
The winter of my lust

The winter of my lust

4. Wither

[music: sanga | lyric: burvall]

Gaze upon the ancient cities
A broken throne of a dying king
Now see the skies, it´s charred remains
And try to hear a dead bird sing
Black dawn comes - Our blessing becomes our curse

To watch decay, as once written
The lord forever, dies insane
His lies caught up with their creator
The dead bid never sings again

Black dawn comes - Our blessing becomes our curse

Wither

5. Doorways

[music: sanga/bergius | lyric: barthold]

I have seen the angels die and fade away
And the rage of demons when they play
I have learned the tounge of gods lon since gone
I have watched the moon grow old and I have touched the sun

The doorway is open for me now - I could enter if I only knew how

Walk among the acient oaks with me
In the woods so dark is where you´ll always be
So take my hand and I will lead you through
A drop of you blood and I will be there too

All my knowledge - All my wisdom gone to waste
I feel the lips of death and she is begging me to taste

6. Dance Her Spirit Dead

[music: sanga/bergius | lyric: barthold]

A little girl, her heart of gold - For silvercoins her heart she sold
That little girl was led astray - With silvercoins she had to pay

See this ground, where she bled - Come with me and dance her sprit dead

And so the whispering winds weep her name

Her lips turned as blue as her empty eyes - On naked ground she naked lies
Come with me and burn our love - Come dance her spirit dead

See this ground, where she bled - Come with me and dance her sprit dead

7. The Savage Garden

[music: sanga/bergius | lyric: burvall]

The moon lights my way
As I walk with the light
Sweet whispers falling
With the cold breeze
Walk with me once more
Through the garden
So beautiful, dark
I´ll forever mourn

Your dark eyes invite me to a feast
I harvest your innocence
With the sweetest kiss

8. Verkörpern

[music: sanga | lyric: barthold]

Deine Augen die sind den Tod von mir
Aber nie zu kriegen - Zu deiner Schönheit bin ich verloren
Der Winter von meiner Lust

Dein Strahlenglanz schmerzt innerhalb mir
Stärke und Wärmen haben mich verlassen

Der Winter von meiner lust - Der Winter von meiner Sehnsucht

In dieser nächlite Kälte - In deinem Gesicht
In dem Schnee - Den ich verkörpe

Deine Augen die sind den Tod von mir
Aber nie zu kriegen - Zu deiner Schönheit bin ich verloren
Der Winter von meiner Lust

Der Winter von meiner lust
