Insomnium Drawn To Black
My favorite track from Above The Weeping World Lyrics: Wreathed in silence, laid down in shades Swathed in regrets, deluded astray Forgotten in halflight, drawn in despair Soothed in slumber so dreadful and fair Rending and searing and twisting my dreams Alone in the gloom with the nightmares unseen The night has a thousand eyes, And the day but one; Yet the light of the bright world dies With the dying sun The mind has a thousand eyes, And the heart but one: Yet the light of a whole life dies When love is done Worthless the pledges, all vows but lies Fateful her kisses, where a serpent hides First beckoned to step from the twilight to glare Then left in the dark for the demons to share Only the stars see, only the moon And quietly the waterlilies sigh Like the last breath of a weary soul And the weed sway in the dreary waters Like a girl s dark hair they wave
