October Tide - In Splendor Below | ||||
| ||||
1. I, the Polluter [Verse 1] The presumption, think my thoughts Aim low to target your darkest corner Surrender all and consume my mold Your freshness and glow to worship [Pre-Chorus] Your healthy claret, a gift [Chorus] I, the receiver And you, the giver When are we planning to leave and bleed? You, the donator Me, the polluter Subsist to eat and breathe you dry [Post-Chorus] A chalice of charred remains A solid education in the art of affliction [Verse 2] Drained, emptied out Precious, cavernous Deceased masks, pretending still Defile and inherit the body, your temple Release the grip to end it Descend into oblivion Release the grip, be gone [Bridge] Your nursing claret now consumed The normal now surreal Reclaim the host of rampancy To make your soul unseal [Refrain] When are we planning to leave? When are we planning to leave and bleed? When are we planning to leave? When are we planning to leave and bleed? No more Turn cold [Verse 3] You look like grief itself When do I come to her? Everyone is waiting Come together to mourn 2. We Died in October [Verse 1] This place belongs to us and we to it Let this curse be a part of our world [Pre-Chorus] Who's your willing sacrifice? We crush the dream of heaven [Chorus] Stay with me When you look at me Do you actually see me? We died in October [Verse 2] Love is worse than hatred Fruitless words of damage We are one, we are war Mutual destruction to be hallowed [Refrain] Emptiness Walk with me The dance of doom October in bloom Washed away Tides of shame Quench that flame You'll never be clean again [Pre-Chorus] Destroy each other with love Scatter the ashes [Chorus] Stay with me When you look at me Do you actually see me? We died in October [Verse 3] I burn it down to nothing Erasing you for good The remains of our past Summer is dying at last [Refrain] Emptiness Walk with me The dance of doom October in bloom Washed away Tides of shame Quench that flame You'll never be clean again Emptiness Walk with me The dance of doom October in bloom Washed away Tides of shame Quench that flame You'll never be clean again 3. Ögonblick av nåd [Verse 1] Jordens skönhet kringstrålar dig och jag bländas Du motsäger meningslösheten Jag kan inte andas Det bleka likets predikan [Verse 2] Ett virvarr av självbedrägerier När vi vaknar är vi rädda Låt vår tid förgöras i sotet Du, du kan skada men aldrig ändra En parfymerad förmåga att gå sönder saktare [Chorus] Mening, mönster, ögonblick av nåd Skulden är själslig, se luften sakta går ur Sticka hål för att se när luften sakta går ur Skara hål för att se när luften sakta går ur [Verse 3] Jåg star i kväv vid er badd Känn min obalans, bär min borda Natten finns till för dig och mig Ta in mig nu, nu är de borta [Bridge] Infektionen är konstant, den färdas med luften En känslomässig fosterstyckning Döp din sjukdom efter mig [Verse 4] En familj som stelnat sönder till oigenkännlighet Välkommen in, in under min kvävande filt [Chorus] Mening, mönster, ögonblick av nåd Skulden är själslig, se luften sakta går ur Sticka hål för att se när luften sakta går ur Skara hål för att se när luften sakta går ur 4. Stars Starve Me [Verse 1] I swore it had gone Yet, yet in vain? Caught in the coils of oration again Above, I was the witness of Wings, once unfurled Below, my splendor, no No longer tied to this world [Chorus] I saw the serpent in my sleep These scales often waiting in my most desolate dreams And at times, oh, it bears such horns Its eyes Much more menacing than the night [Verse 2] I swore it had gone Yet, yet in vain? Caught in the coils of oration again Above, I was the witness of Wings, once unfurled Below, my splendor, no No longer tied [Chorus] I saw the serpent in my sleep These scales often waiting in my most desolate dreams And at times, oh, it bears such horns Its eyes Much more menacing than the night Before [Bridge] Descend if not for a day Stars starve me Of my breath, of my light A vision less than serene Descend if not for a day Stars starve me Of my breath, of my light A vision less than serene Descend if not for a day Stars starve me Of my breath, of my light A vision less than serene [Verse 3] Fabric not of life Descend, if not for a day For shivering souls Into a cold As old as the flame Above, I was the witness of Wings, once unfurled Below, my splendor, no No longer tied to this world [Chorus] I saw the serpent in my sleep These scales often waiting in my most desolate dreams And at times, oh, it bears such horns Its eyes Much more menacing than the night 5. Our Famine Transcend, starving pale Our famine is educative Pretend, transcending grey Forget the world outside My moral decay One last attempt prior to submission You know rejection in your bones Self annihilation is religion We try again tomorrow Before I dissolve We lend our breath to one another Let the lie beautify The world can swallow me at any time Words can be worthless, just like that Examine the depths of starvation A good place to get clean Come and kill it All the tiny insects of anguish Come and kill it Come and kill it to help me We lend our breath to one another Let the lie beautify The world can swallow me at any time Words can be worthless, just like that We lend our breath to one another Let the lie beautify The world can swallow me at any time Words can be worthless, just like that 6. Guide My Pulse [Verse 1] I have lost myself in the ruin of our lives It's been a while, but your voice still feels Fragile consciousness, exclusive fear I carry your weak teeth in my drugged arms Remind me to despise tomorrow She comes to me in the bath [Chorus] Still holding on to your sleeping breath Please guide my pulse, exerting control Left all alone to rule the void Please shut me down, just for a while [Post-Chorus 1] Everything possible shattered Reconciled in empty betrayal Disunite [Verse 2] Morbid ambiance shining through Propagation of the useless worms Everything is moist and worn Everything painted cold and prepared to die [Chorus] Still holding on to your sleeping breath Please guide my pulse, exerting control Left all alone to rule the void Please shut me down, just for a while [Post-Chorus 2] Does she remember me? Let her remember me Together by time, by destiny, by God [Verse 3] No affection for today, kill tomorrow To predominate the emotions Rivers of pouring black Still, I live off your sleeping breath 7. Seconds [Verse] Merciless My pulse counts it down The triviality of our intentions Curtains are closing Draped in demise Trying to find it Our light This is the implicit picture The picture of hope abandoning me By carving the torment within [Chorus] Seconds Do you see how long they last? Now they're gone To be worth my time Nothing before, nothing after [Bridge] A lifetime spent together (Tell me) Makes our faces become the same (Was it worth it?) Help me change its meaning By carving the silence of torment within The joy of life We're aching to feel But the world won't let us Seducing the shame Crumble the wretched Will you remember my name? A lifetimes spent together Makes our faces become the same Help me change its meaning By carving the silence of torment within Wish there was another way (Tell me) But the fire keeps boiling, beckon me (Was it worth it?) Pour cold water in your blood You tell me, was it worth it? The world doesn't care about me I don't care, I won't let it [Chorus] Seconds Do you see how long they last? Now they're gone Curtains are closing Draped in demise Trying to find it Our light [Outro] Carving the torment within 8. Envy the Moon [Verse 1] What lies behind the etched stare? A longing for eyes not destined to me What of these steps like stone, echoes of my feet? [Refrain] Soul released, do I dare die of my grief? No promise to keep Sing myself to sleep Sing myself to sleep [Verse 2] Winter beguiled, yet its essence remains Rust in lieu of flowers An autumn of stone and chains Devouring gasp, to be the air The sky agape to rain despair [Chorus] I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk And when midnight struck my gilded tomb Envy of the moon I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk And when midnight struck my gilded tomb Envy of the moon [Verse 3] I held the dawn Dusk never escaping my hand Painful observer Embodying absence The wind, it seems so cruel at times The breath of noxious day A touch of diluvial night [Refrain] Soul released, do I dare die of my grief? No promise to keep Sing myself to sleep Sing myself to sleep [Chorus] I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk And when midnight struck my gilded tomb Envy of the moon I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk And when midnight struck my gilded tomb Envy of the moon Lyrics in plain text format |
