Katatonia Dead End Kings 1. The Parting In the weak light I saw you becoming the lie Taking it all for granted Like freedom It's something you will never have Forget what's said And hear me sing to you How I've set out to kill my soul The nightward ways The labour it brings The verdict that I came for Migration's song Patterns of death woverwhelms Fixation rise I came along the way And came to a conclusion The indifferent sky Is made of lead and so beautiful Submission Come you will The parting End origin Fade into earth Times ablaze Under the flag we chose Denied my step and froze my heart Yet I stare With nothing left to do The verdict that I came for Migration's song Take your well deserved step Into darkness I'll become your eyes You have no other We have to walk along this wire Trust the one that never trusted you 2. The One You Are Looking For Is Not Here This breaking vow rests so near my tongue Anchor on the cloud Shade upon the sun You took my word for it The vanishing of doubt will unfold my empty space Your time froze over I must lead the way to this conclusion I left you in hell with these words I say to you See how death will bestow seclusion The one you are looking for is hidden from you In my absence now When time will pass and nothingness abide See the evening rise and take my word for it Focuses beyond your vision will unfold my empty space Time froze over I must lead the way to this conclusion I left you in hell with these words I say to you See how death will bestow seclusion The one you are looking for is hidden from you Do you remember when it didn't used to be so dark? And everything was possible Still? 3. Hypnone You will never rest Until the stars burn out My day is done I love the sound of no one coming by Tomb beneath the trees The name unsung The darkness in the cracks I am not what you have waited for Trust Nothing is enough This hunting ground I need the freedom to control my own I need the sound of rain Wearing dependence down The line must be kept so thin To live near life Not within No need to take the test Before the dark must shine Reflect my eyes And strip this creation of mine Tomorrow is so long The dead end king is here Black wings upon his back 4. The Racing Heart White sun Spring of wealth Came for a good time It's not what I have Vibrate Life on the line My racing heart Your vaccant mind If I sow a wind now I will reap a storm You saw me sliding away from the sun And tomorrow Who will came And put their hand over mine Mine with the burning shape of a gun Washed out Soul of money Couldn't keep the fire It's not what I do Vibrate Life on the line My racing heart It's all I find Inside the sickness Rest 5. Buildings Think Of the days when I had too much Of the things we found Resistance died down Fell on frozen soil Bleed a little for a different day Going deeper to come away On the concrete sky I saw buildings rise But keep our lights in shadow still In the wind's eye Where our reflection dies Glass shrines of muted will Dead Is the time that I see from here on out This burial ground One more down And buildings recoil 6. Leech So solitary You have been Your time starts to fade Distorted sky And you find me Revolve inside My blood is yours too That's what you say It couldn't be further from the truth I find The soul in medication All my loving has turned and washed away You took my mind's eye You bring it wherever you go How could you take away The burning I had My rage Static The closing line Whatever you say It's my heart you leech You crushed the edge of symmetry Insignificant You are still But my words in your mouth Lingering Spilling over I see You don't want liberation You keep belonging to what's not even here 7. Ambitions Hear my thin voice Hear my words fall down See my ambitions fade out Had so much better time At night walking on the tracks Changed my perspective Idle hands with wounds and cracks Stale and infected We cast a veil The memories are faint Still so in love with you She danced this strife Kicked the life I feel this weight upon my heart Indecision Sow the seed Aspirations never within reach At night there is no other view Sing a song for the ones who never made it In the ward under yellow lights Under linden trees I am transparent And led to believe that things will change if I go away Lowering sky under which we go She danced this strife And kicked the life I feel this weight upon my heart Hear my thin voice Hear my words fall down See my ambitions fade out Had so much better time Constant noise behind the overcoming I had no choice but to rearrange The scars open I am not allowed to understand I take it as you are not coming back Indecision Sow the seed Aspirations never within reach At night there is no other view Sing a song for the ones who never made it See my ambitions fade out Had so much better time 8. Undo You With life's four-way stop The change in your shadow drops Fate pulls you down for the count With broken promises to amount Time seal our ways to the heart of our hiding placce When all our life lies are crossed Some scars can never heal from what we lost To fail the test and the power destroy To light the way where you have gone For all your funerals to come A requiem in death of some And it seems to be that consistency is not what lingers ahead But a virtue of the dead One of these days Hours pass the night's stage When your spirit won't turn on you The world shuts down with no replay to undo you Breathing, lifeless, not afraid to die Breathing, lifeless, you're afraid not to live Breathing, lifeless, not afraid to die Breathing, lifeless, you're afraid not to live To fail the test and the power destroy To light the way where you have gone For all your funerals to come A requiem in death of some 9. Lethean How long Is the pattern going to speak for you How far can your voice reach Your song below the night From my view I can see you Shudder where are you standing In the vision Cyan blue Now October This time you won't be needing me To run along the freeway To weigh one's heart against the oncoming dark You left me with the pills We had plans but ypu couldn't make it Through the trees What took you so long The high grass What took you so long Translate the fire The venom's rush inside your heart How long can winter Colour your every word And the skyline Past the houses and the cities Hyperopia Carmine red Now This river This time I will 10. First Prayer In the prayer Can't seem to find the right words But we stretchour dead arms For salvation The fundation And the chemical need Discordance put a veil Over my creed Sw sweet my fever now Embraced by its tainted wings Cup my hands and taste the spite Immune to the truths you told In the wake Revenance in my every move The wretched stars aligned For dead wisdom The apparition Rise with my every breath Grasping for the one Who lie beneath You leave now Leave my void of prayers Take these words to go with you Take the splinters See them fall Idle stare Who will come forth from the dry wind And find my blood And clothes and rust Cleane the past Like water through stone Earth did cast a shade Over my sleep 11. Dead Letters Vexation Internal void My dreams Are getting darker and darker Dim my lights Time is frail You shut my mind But oh well Trapped and choked Erased my trail Split the chest My heart couldn t feel more pale Only once Could I see clear Vexation Internal void My dreams are getting darker and darker This life before me Its blood runs so still The call of the bird The song that makes the hours go The change Inactive Dead letters Form these words Dim my lights One by one The sordid pale Broken run Confined in escape On burnt grass Below the crest Lier in wait for the ending Only once Could I see clear My dreams are getting darker and darker This life before me Its blood runs so still Call of the bird Songs that make the horus go
