FALLEN LYRICS
"Demo 04" (2004 Demo)
1. Now That I Die
2. Morphia
1. Now That I Die
Words fall so weak
So fragile
Like swords of glass
How I hurt
Now
Bolt my hands
That no pain may grow from them
Hold me
Pain drowns in your arms
To mourn is a virtue
Mountainous waves
Oh wielder of tortures
Overflow in madness and in dark
Seething under skin with boiling wounds unleashed
That which kills the light and eats sunsets
Can I spill for you the grieving?
May I show you the splendour of dying?
Autumn of life is not as beautiful
As that I dreamt of
Nor the winter
As ruthless
Ashes to coal
Maketh my heart pour
Hold me
Pain drowns in your arms
Give me souls peace
Now that I die
Burn if thou wilst
Oh necrotic flower
I rest and covet no longer
The spirit flies
Mouth the chant
Mute and reeking
Snow-like passing on
What foul stench reels about you
2. Morphia
Relieve the ache
This endless craving for unattainable matters like love...
A heartfelt smile
Relighting of the fire that once burned
...Or just simple meaning
Could I dull it all by removing feeling?
What would it be like?
And would the price be too high?
A life for peace...
Tears for still waters
Oh sweet release come hither
Drowning in desire for things that can not be
So then, feed me morphia
I let go of all
Anything but the yearning that stings so relentless
Better the dead numbness than whatever beauty melancholy may host
Still it is with fear I lay down my swords
