KARKADAN LYRICS

1. Passing Away

A ray of light falls into this cell
Landscapes hidden by these walls
The world outside is moving
Stones are flowing to the ground
A scheme from outside
Isolated by this loneliness
A cold breeze is passing - weeping memories

Secretly tears were cried
But quickly wept away - shadow-like thoughts
To camouflage all anxieties
Silence surrounds the world

Secretly tears were cried
But quickly wept away - shadow-like thoughts
To camouflage all anxieties
Penetrating memories - passing away

Twisted, hunted but still alone
Prud, lonesome but torn apart
Widows drowning in the sand
That keeps flowing through their fingers

A ray of light - was kept outside
Landscapes do not exist

Everything seems to blur
A part of this loneliness
The world stopped moving
Stones cover all the sky

A scheme has been discarded
A warm breeze softly on the skin
Long forgotten memories - coming back to mind
Dreaming in hopelessness
Standing with proud honour

Silence surrounds the world
Penetrating memories - passing away

2. On Your Knees

3. The Angel's Death

4. Faint

The agony of deceiving light haunts me
my torn soul is yearning for the dawn

All the sorrows are drowned in sadness
Tears of mourning will never run dry

My death is closer now than ever
My heart is black of infernal fire
Glimpsing shadows fall unto the dark
I follow the path of ultimate freedom

Taste the red stream of sorrow
Drink the tears off my eyes

My grace has fallen to ashes
My pride has turned to dust
Please take my fear away
... Take my pain away

My death is closer now than ever
My heart is black of bloodred fire
Crimson shadows fall unto the dark
I follow my path to ultimate freedom

The agony of deceiving light haunts me
My torn soul is yearning
All sorrows are drowned in sadness
Tears of mourning will never run dry

It feels like I'm dying
I'm dying

5. Frenetic Visions

6. The Journey

7. Sea Of Bitterness

In the moonlight his tears do glint
Bitterness is overwhelming his emotions
As they hit the coldness of the ground
Where they form that crystal lake
In which he drowns his thoughts and cries

A silent shiver passes on his skin
At the thought of bygone times
He is afraid that he cannot forget
The feelings that there used to be

A withering beauty dies with a cry for help
Her mourning thoughts once filled this emptiness
One soul is left alone with this awful pain

He kneels in the waves of desire
Which tries to wash him away
His eyes - they still are burning
As crying on his knees he sways
He falls towards this soil of tears
Sinking into this forgotten misery
With open arms he receives his fears
He knows this is what he will regret
AGAIN

Hidden he obeys his heart, crying for mercy
Or to be released from this suffering
Crying old eyes filled with love and hate
His words - in tears they die
Asking if he deserves this fate

His breath is slowing down - his pulse is flattening
Take him away from this harming reality
Hold him in your cold arms and make him no longer exist
Tear him down and wipe his eyes

This burden shall be left behind
A new world is waiting for him
Staring through a window
Onto the fields of the abandoned
This is where his life once has ended

Memories still seem to be chasing him
Too much dreams are left
Forlorn dreams of a living one
Much too sad to forget

He is singing his elegy again
With the will to never just give in
Trying to escape what he can't avoid

So he shall rest in peace
Without his beloved ones
Whom he now has to release
In the minute he has gone
The last pound of his heart
Can be heard as a cry ....
