Dark Tranquillity Lyrics

"Of Chaos And Eternal Night" lyrics



This is a tale long to live but alas so short to tell
by the wind and by time, by everything that flees
A torment of my liking: exploring extremes All thoughts secluded as fear stalks its blooded soil
in the winding path where a chain now rattles
with links merely death can break Stains of pride - derelict In feverish visions of agonizing light
pulsating rhythm unpure
So pound the drum
and strike the chords of chaos
So scream out to the skies:

Of chaos and eternal night

Never is the dark any threat to my existence
comforting ravens claws grip the stars that fell tonight
The stealth of infinite beauty
Nevertheless heaven fell tonight

Racing along with the strangled teardrop
Life's elixir in benevolent lust
Slit open the throat that is virtue
Let fire ravage its caverns with joy
Lyrics
Ardent but silent in twillight resigned
delivered from virtue in vehement plight
Yet ask not of your vanity
(the hooved agitator in your creed)
Stray across the vault your seed

Concealed cravings must through fulfilment be broken
Hide no longer behind the veil of unconvincing lies

So pound the drum
and strike the chords of chaos
So scream out to the skies:

Of chaos and eternal night

I've seen fires weaving patterns
forging ornaments - hidden from a world of distress
Grace through hatred:

Of chaos and eternal night

In shadows now vengeful waiting out your bitter foe
the mirror distorts

Sinful is the percieving eye
tearless in nondescript form
Scarlet secrets tell of nightmarish fear
Illusions that speak of endless night

A venture in terms of one hazardour journey

Into chaos and eternal night

Deliver me from virtue,
hidden no more beneath your tender veil of lies

And let 'em all out;
unseen and sinful...

....Of chaos and eternal night
