DESIRE LYRICS

1. A Ride In A Dream Crow

I can hear it...
I can hear the Crow... the Crow...

Buried and forgotten, in these shadows of past,
I wait the songless bird, whose nest is my rest.
This gasp of trust is something like a refuge...
Will be this lustful voyage really the last?

Now, I can see... she's rising from delight...
The lady in black... she brings me the Crow...
The naked mistress... blesses me with immortality,
As I fly on wings of lust to the unconquered lands...

Among the night the Crow dances wild
On the gentle embrace of his wings,
While his generous chant is spread by the winds,
Conquering the silence of the screams from tranquillity...

Now, I can see... the shadow of the moonlight...
The forest of pleasures... the tree of wisdom...
These skies of virtue... clouds of eternal suffering...
This endless river is swallowing me with darkness...

Dance with me... Infinity...

My eyes are bleeding with these visions of lost dreams,
Each Tear of mine, for each silent moment of Desire...
I'm awaking for the eternal night at the dream land,
In this crystal temple, in this everlasting age...
Here are the flames that froze my heart...
That blackness that shows me light...

2. Solitude

[A tribute to Candlemass]

I'm sitting here alone in darkness
Waiting to be free
Lonely and forlorn I am crying
I long for my time to come
Death means just life
Please let me die in solitude

Hate is my only friend
Pain is my father
Torment is delight to me
Death is my sanctuary
I seek it with pleasure
Please let me die in solitude

Receive my sacrifice
My lifeblood is exhausted
No one gave love and understanding
Hear these words
Vilifiers and pretenders
And please let me die in solitude

Earth to earth
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

Earth to earth
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

I'm sitting here alone in darkness
Waiting to be free
Lonely and forlorn I am crying
I long for my time to come
Death means just life
Please let me die in solitude

Earth to earth
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

Earth to earth
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

Earth to earth
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust

3. When Sorrow Embraces My Heart Movement I

Love have torn us apart...

In the touched silence of my aching soul
A big sea of emotion is heard inside of me...
It is the fury of all flames, the rage of all winds
The anger of all sullen seas

My heart cries... Cries...

And in that immense vastness, my heart cries
Cries the hopelessness, cries the pain, cries the grief
Raised by the love that burns in my frozen heart
Casting fire to my glorious taciturn quietness
The sorrow stream my grievous eyes with water
That floods my heart, that crestfallen sea of tears

4. When Sorrow Embraces My Heart Movement II

My Heart is torn apart, consumed in silence by pain
Shedding in tears and elegies for it's love
Ah, my anguishes, over whelming baleful of my passions
How I wished to blind them near to my chest, feel them and die!
Die... die...

Ah, so much nostalgia! So, so much loneliness!
Poor soul, how you are so fiercely cold
Your whispering sunken with tears, your hurted sighs
Are a seediness, a regret, a desolation
Desolation...

I will die... die...

Oh, how terrible is this anguish, this despair of can't confessing
In a screaming tone, in a last scream
My love with the heart bleeding

5. When Sorrow Embraces My Heart Movement III

Ah, sentimento funebre! Oh, lutuosa melancolia!
Deusa da negra escurid?o do sentimento que me esfria
Celeste e divina ? a lembran?a, a mem?ria do teu beijo
A arder-me no peito, esse c?u amplo de desejo...

Ah, gloomy feeling! Oh, mournful melancholy!
Goddess of black darkness of the sentiment that freezes me
Heavenly and divine is the remembrance, the memory of your kiss
(Oh sorrow, embrace me... In your arms I wish to die)
Burning in my chest, that wide sky of desire...

Here, just me and you and my shadowy sadness
With my soul already fed up of sighing and moaning
What I want, I want is to take, to take to death
My being overflowing of suffering, perish to suffer

And in deeply sad agony, my eyes ripped off by tears
With which my soul relieves the pain
Are fainting like the sky at daylight
Oh, what outermost of pain! Oh, what tragic misanthropy!

When sorrow embraces my heart, it dies alone...
True love never dies...
Love is suicide...

6. Death Blessed By A God

My body's burning inside, I can't take this pain (anymore)...
Look at me, God!...
Can't you see me? My flesh starts to rot
And my bones are deformed too...
I am only infected, this is sordid...
And my eyes can't see the truth!
It's a morbid way to die, I don't deserve,
What can I do?!...

My suffer possesses me
Without mercy...
My soul blessed be
Can it escape from this misery?

This unholy sacrifice is very hard
Help me God, please!...
I can't believe in truth, I really belong
To the angel of disease
I long for my time to come
To be blessed by death
God, can I make a question? Why was I born?
Maybe just to die...

"There's nothing left in this life for you...
Apart from death... don't be afraid of it...
Death is just a moment, during your soul
Leaves your own body to the eternal life... life..."

You are my master
I am your son...
You'll take my soul
(And) we'll be as one...
I don't want to escape
From the power that you create
So take me away
To the Devil's reign!

I can feel death, closer than before
I am going to die!
Tears for what?! Life goes on
Even after death!
From the dark I see, I see my Lord
He is calling me!
To go next to him, it's time to close my eyes
So, please, bury me!
