Katatonia Album

Sounds of imbalance
Sleeps through the never
The artificial lightsource
Is creeping with flies

And this time i break
I will never make
Another day
Defiant to what's delivered

I will find a way
To sever myself
Exit all today
You can't see this
Did you ever say
I break sever
I will find a way
Visit me when i'm there

The weakness of hope
Is the strength of decline
Remember what's past ways
And what i've become
The joy of not being
Something i need
I'm only weather
But only to me

What am i supposed to be
In my life
In your life
In our life
In this life

In shut the door and close my sight
At the end of the day

It's not the way that it used to be
There's no way i'll see
The beginning of things to come
Trapped in the ways of the weak

Somehow better without this
Headlights fuck the city
Somewhere i'm broken
No sensations nevermore

What do you say when you speak
I sense no time
Discouraged television sleep
Not awake until it's dark

Somehow i never leave
This deadhouse
Somehow i don't mind being gone
And if you think you've seen me
I have to prove you
That you're wrong

It's hard to say where i've been
Or am, sleeping in the dark
I don't know where i live
Dirty (splintered) palace walls

I'm returning from something
To something
I'm returning from something
To something
Guess i'm alright

I can't do what you do
I'm just able to tear it down yeah
Stay in a cold minute of sleep
See the world
Right through the ether

Twisting names inside of me
Electric atmosphere to be
Must carry on one last time
Cannot end what has begun

In your eyes
You're alive
But in my eyes
You're a lie

You can't do what i do
I'm just able to ruin you yeah
Stay in the cold ways of winter
See myself right through the ether

In my eyes
You're the lie

A dead start in my head
And the day's been laid
The things i really want
Always torn from my heart
You never saw the way
How i wanted you to stay
And now you're gone
I'm on my own

When i was thinking this
Was something permanent
You were already thinking
Of going away

And here the air i breathe isn't dead
Enter life of what's still here
Close the door away from near
Shrouded in autumn's grave ascension

Though the bridge was over now
Lost the track astray somewhere
Who's painting my life in sorrow blue

A relief for a dislocated mind
Shelter for thoughts
Asylum for my soul
Finding the only place i need to know

Salvation for a lonely stinking kind
All my duties be done
A few years of take
Never leaving again you're forever

High white ways
Shattered by rain
Pale dead walls
Nerves pushed in pain
Red light faced
Mirrors of the dead
People in the archways
Eyes full of lead

Always closing down myself
Lower sights and never see
Worlds of noise and worlds of light
Expecting not to be
Not close enough for you
To hear a breath or steal a sigh
But just close enough for me
To take a step and pass you by

As through your shattered eyes
It all came together
And your heart cries
Weeping through the weather
Another way to change your mind
I'm weaker than they say
To leave this all behind
The only way to stay

Don't you know
I'm the end of what we'll be
And right below us
The last thing you'll see

In the water
I saw you drown
Down the water
Saw you drown

As through my shattered sight
You're no longer here
And my heart cries
Sleeping through the light
Another way to change my mind
Never is the day
To leave this all behind
The only way to stay

[No lyrics]

Running my way towards oblivion
Inside my head electric insomnia
In your mind i'm fed with distrust
Heading for anything better than this

I want to be forgotten
I want you to forgive
How i'm losing all this
It's just the way i live

Running my way towards oblivion
Inside my head smokescreen's gone
Leaving all this to be undone
Heading for anything better than this

Running my way towards oblivion
Outside my head only the dark
In your mind i'm the end of it all
Heading for anything better than this

four numbers staring back at me
displaying the mediocrity of my presence
iґm wasting my day wtching them change
the sun with it's blue sky outside
shining down on all you happy people
iґm wasting my day waiting for rain
need more methods to end each day
to be happy by living this way

only for the wind I lay myself down
feeling this scarlet scent of death
under ebony shades I dream of a child
dancing in heaven, dancing in heaven

I must have seen this face before
a monument of shallow sorrows
under ebony shades a child now dies
but grievance won't regain

something grasp for my soul
I think it's god
but my sorrow is dragging me down
through my sins

where is god in his heaven
why am I a twisted mind
now I see the light above
but in darkness I must fall

for my soul you pray at last
will I find my place?
the stench of sorrow that pierce my flesh
can never be pure

when the blackness overwhelms me
where shall I turn
to run away to never look back
to run away from evil
