Asphodelus : Sculpting from Time
Les paroles
1. WATERSIDE
My faith, my being...
The moon it is drowning
Drunk, my pain is amplified
When I stay by the waterside
Leave me in my ruin...
In my realm of things undoing
I forget all the times I tried
When I stay by the waterside
When I stay by the waterside
When I stay by the waterside
When the sirens sing
Their harmonies resounding
To their voice I'm tied
So I stay by the waterside
I'm crying disharmonies
To quench my agony
Life and death, alongside
When I stay by the waterside
When I stay by the waterside
Your voice I hear
Embracing my ears
All the tears I cried
(All my tears) are now
By the waterside
My whole life now streams
In the well of ancient dreams
Ocean(os) be my guide
When I stay by the waterside
When I stay by the waterside
Beyond the veil, they control my sadness
Embracing harmony, when we kiss in the moonlight
My whole life, my life's going beyond time...
2. FALLEN DREAMER
You're lost in the sound of waves
Wandering through a lifeless haze
The world is like a grain of sand,
Slippering from your hand again
Vibrating (in these) magnetic fields
You can not move, you're standing
Still a disturbance in the atmosphere
There's nothing but pain in here
A fallen dreamer
Fall, fall, falling deeper
You were the sign of reality
I'm still trapped in misery
Fallen dreamer, fall deeper
Fall, fall, fallen dreamer
You fall along with the absent grace
Swallowed in, to a ruined embrace
And your life it is a mortal strand,
Slippering from your hand again
I've blindly drunk all your lies
I was poisoned, now I know why
And then you fell on your knees,
Now your hands can't reach me
A fallen dreamer
Fall, fall, falling deeper
You were the sign of reality
I'm still trapped in misery
Fallen dreamer, fall deeper
Fall, fall, fallen dreamer
3. LIFE PAINTED VERMILION
Now I'm dancing with death
Sunburnt eyes staring at the wall
I look at the sky, and there's no sign
But I still yearn for all that was mine
I can no longer see it, for myself
The colour of life dies, it always dies
Was it my life that was painted so bright
With all those colours that were seen...
I can no longer see it with my own eyes
The colour of life dies, always dies
Life is painted in vermilion
Embracing, in its own painful way
And now my pupils they are in pain
With darkened colours, behind the veil
Was it my eye(s) that looked so bright,
With no black, nor blue in sight
Why these eyes are now bleeding
Is this for my kind to feel, to feel
All so epic in its own painful way
Life is painted in blood, in blood
Was it my life that was painted so bright
With all those colours that were seen...
I can no longer see it with my own eyes
The colour of life dies, always dies
Life is painted in vermilion...
4. MONUMENTS OF DECEPTION
If the world moves on
Then I'll run further away
As if time, time had stopped
Now, in the past I've stayed
And when there'll be an end
I will stand, I'll stand alone
With grave as my throne
Here, here the living sleep
Abandoned to envy and theft
And here, here the dead weep
A spiral where no hope is left
I will dig a burial ground...
For this shallow human form
Even in death we will conform
Shame all the lost reflections
Lie, now lie in false revelations
To kill time, no salvation there
Hide in monuments of deception
The world moves on
I still run, further away
As if time had stopped
In the past I have stayed
So, there will be an end
And I move alone, alone
Monuments behind me
Shame all the lost reflections
Lie, now lie in false revelations
To kill time, no salvation there
Hide in monuments of deception
5. WORLD OF HOLLOW
I see my words becoming dust,
And slipping through my fingers
Lies created by the mind, I admit
I admit to having failed, failed in life
And every path leads to a world of hollow...
Every word carrying us to the graves of tomorrow
Calling for a never-ending void, in depression
Carrying shattered, shattered feelings
In my lingering dismal grief
For a moment, we're slowing down
And for a second, I feel it is gone...
For a moment we're still, we are still
And one second felt like a lifetime
For a moment I can't, I can't fall
I see my words becoming dust,
And slipping through my fingers
Lies created by the mind, I admit
I admit to having failed, failed in life
And every path leads to a world of hollow...
Every word carrying us to the graves of tomorrow
Calling for a never-ending void, in depression
Carrying shattered, shattered feelings
In my lingering dismal grief
For a moment, we're slowing down
And for a second, I feel it is gone...
For a moment we're still, we are still
And one second feels like a lifetime
6. WHERE SIRENS WEPT
Will the gods forgive me...
This passion paints the sky black
I ventured into a sea (of spirits)
Cast away, I lost the track
To this romance I am slave
These waves shall be my grave
If no other voice I'll hear
And no longer I can run
Away, away from here
If there is no more light...
And no longer the sun sets
Where the sirens wept
Where the sirens wept
Was it lust or vanity,
I turned towards that call
To defy mortality again,
The price was my soul
To this romance I am slave
These waves shall be my grave
If no other voice I'll hear
And no longer I can run
Away, away from here
If there is no more light...
And no longer the sun sets
Where the sirens wept,
Where the sirens wept
7. THE MOON IN PISCES
See how my tears are flowing
Like evening dew in the window
Frustrated for not moving on...
Still no waves in the high seas
And the moon is in Pisces
8. SCULPTING THE TIME
There was a time when I heard, from the sky
Your voice it was ringing through my dreams
You sat on the other side, crying above in heaven
Looking down the Aurora of love once embraced
For the love once embraced I yearn, and I yearn
Aeon is veiled, in strangling fear
But can we pause and sculpt in time
A cold kiss of illusion, the love paints
For lives forsaken, lives forsaken
You're still broken, praying for the blinding sun
And I'm here, here standing in the moonlight
Withering voice of my despair,
Buried in this cycle of life...
Sculpting the time, while the sun cries
Sculpting in time, while the moon dies
I can't sleep, and I always forget
Forget to watch the sunrise, all my life
I fall into the abyss, see the moon in my eyes
The cries of your soul fill the void, I can't let go
I want to feel your soul inside me
But you're still praying for the sun
And I try to fall asleep, fall asleep
And I still, I still live for the moon
You're still broken, praying for the blinding sun
And I'm here standing in the moonlight
Withering voice of my despair,
Buried in this cycle of life...
Sculpting the time, while the sun cries
Sculpting in time, while the moon dies
I'm blinded, but I still see you
I see you in the fields of astral light
And I don't dare to look anymore,
And I still live for the moon
