Lyrics

1. SANGUINE SKY

My blood is tainted, azure blue
A setting sun bleeding
Into an ocean of tears, for you

It's an exodus from the dark
The night is breathing, the night is exhaling
Falling, falling up a staircase
Towards the moon, the stars, and a Venus-kissed Mars

Blood runs south
As the days grow darker
And this fight is eating at me
I see the dead awaken
My fate forsaken, i'm free

I am talking on a hidden line
She says she's feeding, she says she's dead
She says there is a downward spiral
From the moon, the stars, the ever-warring Mars


2. AB INITIO

On this day the sky came alive
My lover and i witnessed a miracle
Suddenly you were here
And i felt like nothing could ever be broken
But days fickle away

[Chorus]
If i could stop time from attacking
If i could slow everything down
A smile with no fear of tomorrow
Your time is yet to come

You laugh and you cry
You wear your against to the flow
You send me a smile
And to the night a dawn
Then it seems like you are falling asleep
But your eyes remaing open
Like two evening star

[Chorus]

If i...
If i...
If i...

You could go anywhere

Your tears are numbered
Release me, i've slumbered

I've gone away
I've gone away

Your tears are numbered
Release me, i've slumbered

I've gone away


3. MERCYSIDE

(Østen)
You can hate me for
All the things i do
You should let my heart go
Whatever you decide to do

You can make me bleed
You can make me cry
You can make me fall
You can make me live or die
And i'll wonder how
And you'll wonder why
And you'll wonder why

(Vorph)
For years the world has been
Falling apart
Like the dynamite would
The surface is swollen,
Cold
But underneath, the blood always boils

(Vibeke)
It's getting harder
Getting worse now
Every day
We're growing colder
Digging deeper
In my mind

It's getting harder
Getting worse now
Every day
We're growing colder
Digging deeper
In my mind

(Østen)
You laughed
But your smile never reached your eyes
You cry
But your eyes never shed a tear
And i wonder how

You laughed and you
Untied your hair
There are things to do
Things we never could tell

(Vorph)
The surface is swollen,
Cold
But beneath, the blood always boils

Vibeke:
It's getting harder
Getting worse now
Every day
We're growing colder
Digging deeper
In my mind

Nail me
Choose me
Blame me
Every time you light
Your fingers
I'm not what i decide

It's getting harder
Getting worse now
Every day
We're growing colder
Digging deeper
In my mind

It's getting harder
Getting worse now
Every day
We're growing colder
Digging deeper
In my mind
