dark tranquillity
away, delight, away
As false as our minds our eyes refuse to see They claw for the falseness in me From where all life springs anew We are cleansed through the crystal fire  Fill me with sound, fill me with hatred Let my blood bring life to the soil The soil beneath my feet  Messenger of pain, sailing silence Commander of my sorrow, riding rage This is my garden, leave me be  Infinity is eternal Never born so it may never die The colours speak my name Through the crowns I am baptised in the First gnawing rays from a blackened sun In the name of my blood I curse thee Shelter me under the trees Spread your twilight wings for me  My broken body is dripping with sin  Your skin so delicate in taste Your undemanding bliss will carry me far  I bid farewell to this godforsaken land Nevermore shall I return I join with the riders on the horizon For they are my blood For they are my saviours They bring me hatred, bring me fire They take me down to the land I know not They crush me, take me down Then they build me once more again  Slayer of my anger Sailing silence The angel of my lust She is tasting shame
