Les paroles


1. UNFURL

At city centre 9 pm
Just like you wrote
And i try to think about
Snow coming in
Just like before
I will be on stand-by

Releasing the vapor
Into the lung
Letting the wings unfurl
And for a moment I feel young
I call on the bird
Unfurl

It’s time to chose side now
That’s what you said
When we talked on the phone
So white our eyes
You are still
Are you paralyzed


2. SOLD HEART

When my heart stops
Will my wings unfold
Did you know that I had no one but you?
When my eyes close
Will your blood turn older?
Did you know that I had no one but you?

In the snow veil
Where the ring of promise felt
In the cool, white air
One stood abiding
When the road turns
Will my ghost find freedom?
Did you know that I had no one?
So I...

Sold my love
Forget the vow
It feels like nothing comes to mind
I pull the weight
And sing
That there's a white cloud over my grave
Now I know
That it did kill me when I could not have you
Sold my heart


3. ASHEN

Won't forgive your ways
I strip my mind with all but scorn
The scales of madness mesmerize

Voice your dead prayer

Hey
You used me
But I had none to confide

Under a veil of stars
Where the darkness grows
The pressure from the chain that you hold me in
Ornament of scars
And the darkness rising
Over the ashen stains that I hold within

Did not forget the name
I stripped my mind with all but you
The scales of madness just before we die


4. SECOND

Sun has lost
Mountains fell
What took away our anchor
Snow in the old sky
Escape is a long dead end

We need to rise higher

Temples burn
Fires underneath
What controls our anger
Moon coming in
Sun has lost
Did you know
Mountains fell

Letting one second go on
To go over a lifetime
We were such good friends
Will you find me where I am now


5. CODE AGAINST THE CODE

Money growing on a tree
The cold you have come to find
Money going through the wire
The cold you have come to find

You once were the one who had it
The code against the code

Wait
So much to discover
Wait across the borderline

Soul thinned out
All the filth that soiled your baby
Spit it out when they're coming for you
Lowered's heir


6. THE ACT OF DARKENING

So dark
Once an amusement park
Troubled whispers sound
On a mute merry-go-round

So cold
Once a playground of gold
Caved in long ago
And then poisoned with the snow

Oceans of time
Broken patterns align
Hearts washed upon the isle

It carries your name
Like radiance in the rain
The wailing sirens alarm

Old memories hang on and gravitate by weights of sorrow
Through cracks and wounds our pain reflected in a thousand mirrors
It is time for deeds to take the shape of vows and codes of promise
The time to let our minds speak silently in the act of darkening

Out of reach and gone from view
Now light is one step behind you
On the other side of the soul
The void resolves one final role

Collapse into absence
