ZERAKIEL LYRICS

1. Fear, Come Near Me

"When I opened my eyes
I didn't see this world anymore
I thought that I was lost
But I had come home
I'm afraid
I don't need anything else
Alone in the fragmented world
In the middle of my own nightmare
The only thing that I pray now
Fear, come near me"

Twilight's embrace and the fading moon
Nightmares cobweb in my mind
Voices in my head, howl or croon
Freezing air and my silver breathing
Shadows behind the window
They whisper my name

Miracles and the fallen angels
Harlot and the rosary
Grace and vanity
Fear...

There's no Sun in my Eden
The snake isn't cursed
Expelled will return back home
Hell quiets down

I'm afraid
I don't need anything else
Hate at first sight
I fall to the dark side
Lost and alone
Bleeding and soulless
It is my comfort
Fear, come near me

Lunatic and a swan song
Morphine and lust
Unholy and the broken
Fear...

Beautiful nightmares every night
Dependence from deep darkness
Longing gaze to the black bullet
Scarlet tears fall to the ground

"When the curtain comes down and opens up again
Everything has become serene"

2. Screaming Butterfly

Hit to the ground like a dying bird
Blasphemed due the fragility
Blood on the hands as a memory from the past
From innocence, from euphoria
Shame and broken skulls
As a gift from yesterday
What the hell happened?
My paradise is burning

Nobody can take away
My great darkness
I fall into the abyss of slumber
The Suffering world around me
My heart can not hear
My soul like a screaming butterfly

I will rise from the fire
I was reincarnated
I am my own god
I'm not wearing the Crown of Thorns
Rose peaks stings
Inflamed wounds leaks
Why do you cry?
Your paradise is burning

"Something is coming... I wait
I embrace the midnight light
You're waiting for the instructions
But the prophets are gone
And you are lost"

3. The Crestfallen Amaranth

The beaten one tried to give one´s all
Fell into tears after giving it all
The moon and the stars are so heavy to carry
It would be easier just to surrender
In tomorrow there is nothing to grow
In yesterday everything burns

To rise and fly just to fall again
The sun will shine no more
The crestfallen amaranth torn into thousands of shreds
The world seems to be more gentle
When seen through tears
I am the cemetery

Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust
The skies cannot be reached from six feet under
Everything around is silent and cold
The time has come to withdraw
into the individual darkness

"The shine of my halo has died down
Something else shines inside of me
It's the fire of venom and pain
Is keeping me awake"

4. Beauty And The Beast

This corridor is empty and dark
The moment of light is falling apart
Your silent words are telling enough
Your evasive gaze is seeking the sun
But today the sun goes to sleep
The Landscape of dream is so restless

I would like the fires ignite
Together us to melt
And burning to ashes in to the ground
I'd like the story to end
From a nightfall find the ending
Just find a common destination

Someday I might not remember your name
Someday even your face is foreign to me
Being lost and trying to steer my memories
The common life was only a fantasy
I couldn't even say goodbye

"Open your wings and fly
I crouch under the sky
And I stay wading in the ocean of sorrows"

Evening-dressed in black
In vain desired treasure
The promise for tomorrow, stillborn
We were like day and night
Soul landscape of broken hearts
Born in too different worlds

5. Child Of The Night

The moment of silent night
Exhausted eyes wants to fall asleep
When the wings are no longer carrying
And the world's shackles strangling you
The moment of dying night
Secretly you are afraid
Don't be afraid

Tonight faded a star from the darkening sky
Life was like a dream and now you get to live in a dream
In the deepest sorrow and the most heartfelt tears
Remains the longing
Child of the night

When the morning dawns
You have fallen asleep
Smile faded from the face
Life faded from the eyes
Now, hear the silence
Walk into the darkness
Rest in peace

"Hän jätti taakseen katkeran maan
Vaipui kauniiseen kuolemaan
Hän saanut on rauhan ikuisen
Jättänyt kaipauksen suloisen
Nyt yö hänen untansa varjella saa
Yön lapsi varjojen maassa nukahtaa

Kauniita unia..."

6. The Story Behind The Tears

[Instrumental]

7. Slumber Evermore

Evening of life has become
I am a withered leaf
which falls into the ground with September rain.
I feel the pain on my wings
I find no longer reason to live
Nocturnal sky smiles to me approvingly

I close my eyes
But I can see more clearly than ever
I let my soul to rest in death
I want to leave
I want to slumber evermore
I sail in silence

Eventually a bed in permafrost
The first snow covers up to the final bed
I am no longer afraid of dark
My life's sunset is beautiful
World's voices still whispering
But I do not want to go back

I close my eyes
Forget me now, forever
I don't miss back to the starless night
I want to leave
I want to slumber evermore
I sail in silence

"No longer need to wake to a nightmare
No longer need to fear the awakening"

In vain you bless my journey
In vain you pray forgiveness for my sins
There's no god in my dreamworld
I no longer breathe the dust of this world
Calm is the mind in slumber
En route in eternal twilight

"Silence... It's music to me now..."
