Sirenia Dim Days of Dolor 1. Goddess Of The Sea Scarlet and red, flaming sunset in the distance You're going down on the prowl, Sea Goddess Never to rest, all obsessed in Thy search for Northwest. Vigilant eyes coming to life once again Here in the night, in the depths of the search Searching the deep infinitely with desire and greed. Coming alive, thrive in the night, sleeping in the fire Chest of gold, dreams unfold, burning with desire You are my treasure, haven and pleasure, my pearls and gold. Give me a gust, give me the wind and that horizon Give me nine waves, seaman's grave, endless sleep I honour Thee eternally. Rán - my Goddess of the Sea. At the seashore or ocean floor, always searching Precious treasures all bound for your net All you possess my Sea Goddess you will wear as a dress. 2. Dim Days Of Dolor Frozen in the moment Seems like time is standing still This life feels like a cyanide pill The sun rise, a new morning It's the same strife, different day The grim reaper meets me in the doorway I'm just barely alive I don't know if I will survive Yet another day, another way To fade and deteriorate I've been losing my mind I've been falling way behind I'm a lost survivor, walking through fire But strength is giving away Broken by this moment Seems like I have lost the will The will to carry on further still The sundown, darkness falling It all ends right where it begins I pray for forgiveness for my sins I'm just barely alive I don't know if I will survive Yet another day, another way To fade and deteriorate I've been losing my mind I've been falling way behind I'm a lost survivor, walking through fire But strength is giving away Can you see through the fire Can you see through the rain And you walk through flames Have we all become insane Is this my funeral pyre Burning brightly and in vain Faceless strangers without names Haunts you over and over again I'm just barely alive I don't know if I will survive Yet another day, another way To fade and deteriorate I've been losing my mind I've been falling way behind I'm a lost survivor, walking through fire But strength is giving away 3. The 12th Hour Clock is ticking, won't stop tricking me The clock is ticking, time pass away Now tomorrow is yesterday Life is slipping through my hands No one cares, no one understands Can't you see that time Becomes our foe Time stares you right into the eye With an ice cold heart and a grinning smile Can't you see that life Becomes our woe Time pass by careless and vile So treacherous, deceiving and guile Time is the enemy Unseen Planing its tricks on me Foresee Won't ever let me be You see Cunning eternally Leave me be The hours pass by faster each day Weeks and months just waste away Year by year I feel more deprived Thirty nine and barely alive Can't you see that time Becomes our foe Time stares you right into the eye With an ice cold heart and a grinning smile Can't you see that life Becomes our woe Time pass by careless and vile So treacherous, deceiving and guile Would you still be right by my side The moment our worlds collide Would you be mine until the end And again Can't you see that time Becomes our foe Time stares you right into the eye With an ice cold heart and a grinning smile Can't you see that life Becomes our woe Time pass by careless and vile So treacherous, deceiving and guile We all fall apart Like crumbling towers At wits end, the gate is near Soon I will be out of here There is no time left This is the twelfth hour My days are done, my time is here Cross my heart and have no fear 4. Treasure N' Treason Emerald green, you shine of hope and dreams Crystal blue, you see me trough Rubin red, you left my heart for dead Diamond bright, purest delight. Don't you see, I tried to set you free I wanted you to be my one true love Talk to me, reveal how you feel Does your life still feel so unreal? Won't you ever realize Our worlds on fire You're still living in denial, my love. Won't you take me by the hand We're off to never land. We will watch the sun descend, never again. Ardent gold, embracing me so cold Silver lines of sweet decline Onyx black, fierce as a heart attack Sapphire, burn with desire. Don't you see, I tried to set you free I wanted you to be my one true love Talk to me, reveal how you feel Does your life still feel so unreal? Can't you see, you're my will to be My eyes are fixed on you my love. Oh, I can hardly breathe I concede that you're my destiny Totally obsessed with thee You are the air I breathe... 5. Cloud Nine You're standing in the hall Staring at the wall Your eyes are cold and sad, blood-red Your sanity was misled, left for dead. Failed to walk the line Fallen off cloud nine Did you lose your mind When did you fall behind Tell me now Will you ever find The key to bring you back to life? You linger in despair Going nowhere You're forcing on a smile, for awhile Every once in a while, reconcile. 6. Veil Of Winter Tell me how does it feel When your dreams are wrecked and lost And confined within the sea of time Treason, way beyond all reason and white lie There's a time when the truth comes down to die Are your needs so dire I'm a gun for hire The tears on her face Are crystallized by the winter's embrace Lost in this godforsaken place Seems like she's fallen from grace Winter, it's veil around her Wither in every way And the cold it seems is here to stay Silence speaks out in defiance And hurtful ways The road to life has turned into a maze Are your needs so dire I'm a gun for hire Can you feel the fire Burning brighter and brighter There is not much left to tell The road is short from here to Hell Toss a dime into the wishing well The truth turns out to be a lie Life is just death in disguise Once burned, then twice shy... 7. Ashes To Ashes I stare into the eyes of sleep, the never waking Two feet wide and six feet deep, my new realm of waiting Beneath the flowers and fields That's where my new journey begins The roots are embracing me now Feel the warmth of the earth somehow The priest close the door, shuts the light The undertaker smiles Ashes to ashes and dust to dust I gaze into infinity, a world of dreamers I left behind the cruelty of non believers Beneath the flowers and the fields My kingdom opens up to me Come dream with me, eternally I'll be your saviour Beneath the fields, flowers and trees We'll sleep forever. 8. Elusive Sun Another dream went downstream So it seems, my savior Please bring me to life Caught in your eyes, a web of lies Purify these tears, love You're death in disguise We're coming to life when we fall down Here's yet another breakdown We are nothingness undone What have we all become The mirror lies, it divides Mesmerize my senses You're under my spell Into the night, out of sight Hold on tight to me, love I'm death in disguise We're coming to life when we fall down Here's yet another breakdown We are nothingness undone What have we all become Broken dreams won't come to life Every day remains a strife Silent screams speaks out so loud Elusive sun and dark rain clouds... We're coming to life when we fall down Here's yet another breakdown We are nothingness undone What have we all become 9. Playing With Fire What is this misery called life What are these days filled with strife What are these words sharper than a switchblade knife So hard to find a way to cope So hard to find a shred of hope Too hard to justify a life for a misanthrope You are my desire Take me higher and higher Playing with fire Strung out, high and wired What is this feeling on my mind I crave for something undefined An addiction's curse devours my piece of mind What is this life that I forsake I drift along in its wake And when I left you there, what did I undertake. Mon désir se fait troublant Jouons avec le feu Conduis-moi au firmament Quels qu'en soient les enjeux Are you playing with fire Can't you see the flames grow higher Are you still high and wired Are you burning with desire Are you up against addiction Are you conquered by affliction Is your life thy infliction Say your final benediction 10. Fifth Column Who are you? Who deceives your Fatherland Deceives your consanguine, your kingdom And when your heartland burns Where will you then turned Will you wash your bloody hands, at the end... When all the walls come crumbling down Your fields are bleeding, your king lost his crown You've been sleeping with the enemy Now it's way far too late to flee Fatherland don't give in Motherland is screaming Oh, you traitor, our doom... This is the final warmth Breaking down our doors You viper in the grass, impasse The hourglass runs out In darkness and in doubt Driven like the snow, you'll know... Traitor, you deceitful snake Your consanguine you did forsake Cursed be thee, in Odin's name Treacherous disgrace, endless shame Sirens ringing, bullets singing This is the hour it all begins Defeat the foe within Here comes another dawn of warmth Life before, in days of yore Cross your heart and aim to kill Forward on and fire at will This is yet another dawn of war The fifth column's scorn Oaths were sworn, treason born, heartland torn... 11. Aeon's Embrace This is the end, my time is over My eyes darken, my hands feel colder Here, right at the edge of the fall A frail dim light, growing brighter and brighter Here, right at the end of the world I can see the lights are growing brighter in the distance When I close my eyes, I feel the warmth of a thousand suns... You were my light, my one true love It broke my heart to leave you behind... 12. Aeon's Embrace (French Version) [Bonus Track]C'est donc la fin et j'ai fait mon temps Alors enfin, aux ténébres je consens Ici juste au bord de la chute Pâle lueur, brillant, grandissant sans trêve Ici où le monde s'achève Je vois des lumières se faire de plus en plus intenses Fermant les paupières, la chaleur de mille soleils embrase mes sens Tu étais ma lumière exquise, mon seul amour vrai Et mon cœur s'enlise de t'avoir laissé Je vois des lumières se faire de plus en plus intenses Fermant les paupières, la chaleur de mille soleils embrase mes sens
