1. Inertia [Music and lyrics: Friman] When the cold wind blows Sending shivers down your spine There is none so blind As those who do not listen Sleep of reason produces monsters 2. Through The Shadows [Music and lyrics: Friman] Walk away from the world Give in all you got Do not bother to try Fight 'til the last drop Walk among the shadows Leave your mark behind Lose yourself into grey mass Make statement of your life And I feel tired, empty and hollow, heart-broken inside And I feel this life has nothing for me anymore And I feel revived, sacred and honoured, one of the kind And I feel this life is something I was chosen for Let in the anxiety Make the most of every day Dwell on guilt and misery There is tomorrow after today You cannot win always But you can lose every time You alone have the power You only hold the control One fleeting moment Few short-lived seconds Mere short flicker in time For the shadow to grow and die 3. Song Of The Blackest Bird [Music: Sevänen, Vänni & Friman, lyrics: Sevänen] Far above the darkling world Soars the blackest bird Far above the darkling world It sings the saddest song (And those who hear its cry...) Those who hear it will go astray Those who hear it will wither away And nothing besides they hear Nothing besides they think anymore And they will turn away from the sun And they will turn against themselves At the midmost night Each midmost night Upon Death's palm The bird will rest a while And gently Death will speak Softly Death will hum and whisper: "Fly again my bird, fly again over the world" Those who hear it will bow their heads Those who hear it will find no rest And black as a dream is now their way For into the shades they all shall fade 4. Only One Who Waits [Music: Friman, lyrics: Sevänen] Son of man You're on your own The coming winter You'll face alone The heart that you cherished so The hand that you tried to hold Belong to a stranger But a vision you crafted Alone you came into this world Came into being Alone you are still when you're leaving When you're waning Hounds of winter Bay at the moors Demons of loneliness Bide at your door now Not one heart that would stay true Not one soul that bleeds for you They'll turn away One dreary day Alone you're in this world In the middle of it all If you keep holding on It will hurt even more Only one who stays Only one who waits Your shadow by your side Only friend in life 5. Unsung [Music: Sevänen & Friman, lyrics: Sevänen] Beneath a silent stone In cold caress of the earth Where timeless sleep reigns Where world is but a distant toll No stars shine, no moon roams No sun broods, no winds blow No tunes chime amidst the bones No prayers for the devil’s own Night falls and dawn breaks again Autumns and winters slowly pass And all these earthly tremors But a remembrance for me Mine is this forgotten song Buried deep and heard no more Mine is this unhallowed sleep Deathless wait under the trees All the years in vain I fought All my deeds have gone to nought Unsung is the tale of mine Mislaid 'til the end of time Hidden deep under the vale of the moon Entombed beneath the white flowers of death Only the frail words Written in the stone Retell my name anymore Only the frail words Written in the stone Recall my days anymore 6. Every Hour Wounds [Music & lyrics: Friman] Walking on the gallows ground, Rope tightly around the neck Raven-bird on each shoulder waiting for the pick Chasing for the shadows, ideal that does not exist On the endless road leading to nowhere Let the sounds and light wash over Bathe the darkest corners of melancholy Blow burning flames into your soul Reveal the truth between the lines In this world every hour wounds Every second draws blood Every moment delivers pain If you choose so In this world every hour kills Every minute seeps despair There is nothing but suffering If you decide so Walking on the gallows ground, Rope tightly around the neck Flock of vultures circling above, Waiting for the feast Reaching through the blackest sky For the brightest star Seeking for the guidance From the night that never dawns Guided by empty promises Charmed by hollow words No truth or answers could be found Nothing but years numbered in me Gods are great, but the heart, the heart is greater From our wounds they're born, from our sadness they grow Gods are strong, but the mind, the mind is stronger In our scars they dwell, but in our hearts they burn 7. Decoherence [Instrumental][Music: Friman] 8. Lay The Ghost To Rest [Music & lyrics: Friman] Frequented by displeasing memories Haunted by the creatures born of night Sunk deep in the dejection and distress Weak and powerless to severe the ties Bound in the dream world Wide-awake for every hour of sleep Faltering towards the future Only to come across with the past No hope beacons here No rays of light lingers Underneath the black earth Where the forgotten wait No love resides here No solace can be found Underneath the cold soil Where the sleeping gods lie There is nothing to remember When you are lost There is nothing to strive for When you are gone Now rest for you are tired, let it go Dive into sleepless dream, embrace oblivion The moments of light between the darkness Are brief and flee fast in the house of dead Searching my way out of confusion In this cold night cold as my heart Trying to find a resolution Assurance and strength to just go on I'm in the thousand winds that blow In the circling flight of blackbird In the stars that shine at night In the last dying rays of light Be gone sorrow, leave your dead behind Stay away grief, lay the ghosts to rest 9. Regain The Fire [Music & lyrics: Friman] Since the very beginning Surrounded by silence Brooded in solitude Grown in the darkling shades Destined to find my own way To create the path to follow And the scars of tomorrow Will make you bleed only today And the rain keeps falling Pouring down from the sky Washing footmarks from the mire Leaving no trace behind And as the shadows grow taller Swallow all the light I'm left alone in darkness With no one by my side Since the very beginning Chosen to bear the burden Abide tragedy in the blood Close shadows in the heart Always beaten by the stronger Never defeated by anyone Never disarmed of power Held by the ones guided by fire 10. One For Sorrow [Music & lyrics: Friman] I am the last The one who holds on past Clinging on something we used to have I am the last The one who chose this path To walk among the world of shadows Always one for sorrow Never one for love Two souls destined to failure Right from the start It was always one for sorrow Never one for love Two souls set for departure Before the nightfall And here I stand Devoid of faith, bereft of hope Unable to break the walls around me And here I stand Shell of a man from past Condemned to world of resentment It took two to summon the thunder One to bring down the rain Two to torn all asunder One to suffer the pain Two to crush dreams and wonders One to lose everything All once beautiful and sacred Nothing but in vain 11. Weather The Storm [Limited Edition Bonus Track][feat. Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquillity)][Music & lyrics: Ville Friman] Cast down into the darkness To stumble towards unknown Only emptiness to hold on to Only shadows to seek support from So arm your heart with self-worth Yet prepare for sorrow and pain Don't let the fear eat you from inside Wear your weaknesses with pride And even if you crush my body And drain it 'til the last drop You can never touch my spirit You can never touch my soul No matter how bleak or how hopeless No matter how hard or how far You can never break my conation Tear the will apart from desire Thrown down into the flames Enfolded by ash and ember Quenched in scorching fire Hardened in undying flare Through demise and disaster Past the flames of the end Rise above ever stronger Disown the past for the present Don't be guided by fear or failure It's now or never Just give it all in Lyrics in plain text format
