ARCH ENEMY LYRICS
"Demo" (1996 Demo)
1. Bury Me an Angel
2. Dark Insanity
3. Eureka
4. Idolatress
1. Bury Me an Angel
Symbolical and mystical
Between life and death we're torn
A constant struggle
Like an apocrypha
Nobody can be certain
A thousand days, spent in hell
The ultimate sacrifice
Your voyage starts
With a question mark
But the distant future
Will not tell
Chorus:
Bury me an angel
Set my black soul free!!
Blackened chariots
Bearing evil souls
Ride the surface of burning holes
Nocturnal…traveller
You represent the ruined spirit
Symbolical and mystical
You shall be damned for all time
Lead – Michael
2. Dark Insanity
Weak and sick I crawl
In the dust of past mistakes
Leaving for the darkness
Of tears and cold heartaches
Suffer in this grief
Of forever burning hate
The ashes of my life
By the torment you create
Chorus:
On my knees…remembering
The wasted years of dark insanity
The rage increases fast
As the memories eat me alive
God, I wish this to end
But I'm not prepared to die
No more a human being
Just a fool of anxiety
Unable to escape
The darkest insanity
Lead – Christopher
3. Eureka
Stumbling through
This complex puzzle that is my life
Thirsty for knowledge
But drinking from poisoned fountains
Flashbacks from my past
God knows how long I'll last
Images of you
Leading my soul astray
These four walls
Are closing in, suffocating me
My last wish is to
Transcend from this dimension of boredom
Wrap your arms around me
Like a circle around the sun
I loved you so
Why couldn't you love me?
Chorus:
EUREKA! – I found the secret of life!?
EUREKA!
1st Lead – Christopher
2nd Lead – Michael
4. Idolatress
These gardens of angst
In which I stand
Lost and confused
Hungry for more
Eager to cross
This river of tears
Safe in this void
In which I live
Free from despair
Weaving a web
Surrounding my soul
Imprisoned distress
Chorus:
In a world of dying angels
Trespassers on unknown domains
Traumatic defeat
This time I'll burn
For one thousand years
Bearing the truth
Deep down inside
It dies with me
Taste the pure salt
Of misery
Hell's ecstasy
Feel destiny
Breathe in your neck
Cut you so deep
1st Lead – Michael
2nd Lead - Christopher
Twisting my mind
Living in sin
Dying within
Wicked and mean
Sinister eyes
Staring at me
