HUMAN FAILURE LYRICS
"Tales From A Hollow Eternity" (2003)
1. Still water runs deep
2. Night of the weeping skies
3. As the Demon devours me
4. Through the eyes of the owl
5. Ages ago
6. On broken wings
7. Doomed to forever Wander
1. Still water runs deep
The Ocean is calm as I watch the sunset
Seems it's a picture perfect world
I have no worries that I know about
Nothing should clouden my mind
I tried to keep my head high
It's not too late for me
Why do I feel this sadness
burning deep inside of me
I look into my glass and stir the drink
It's supposed to be sweet, all I feel is bitterness
My friends are laughing around me
But I cannot feel their joy
The tragic shadow that haunts me
is not repulsed by joy
The restlessness within me
has gone out of control
The fire in my soul cannot die
Without it I wouldn't search for life
Alive with empty mind, searching when I'm blind
I must create or I will not find
I tried to keep my head high
It's not too late for me
Why do I feel this sadness
burning deep inside of me
How am I supposed to act
How can I feed my demon
How can I satisfy
the fire in my soul
I will search for life
deep inside my soul
I sense the taste from drops of water
from springs of sources unknown
I have seen the signs and
I would die for what I know
Dead eyes watching me from beyond,
whispering from below
Thrice I challenged, thrice I conquered
mysteries within me
I have gone this far to question
my mortality
Programmed by DNA
or shaped by our surroundings
Life's schedule already drawn
by the twisted hands of fate
Still water runs deep
Unveil the secrets of my ancestors
Still water runs deep
Unveil the secrets of my existence
2. Night of the weeping skies
I was born into misery
The elders cursed my name
The blood that flows in my veins
Is part wolf
At the age of 15
I was banished from my home
When fullmoon appears my fur grows thick
And the craving for blood is near
Search for blood
Kill in lust
I was born under a weeping sky
No gods would speak my name
Son of the headman now crawls in mud
My spirit forever condemned
In the deepest forests I dwell in my cave
Tormented by solitude
When darkness falls I scream out my pain
But I don´t recognise my voice
Search for blood
Kill in grief
Chorus:
Many times I have cursed my life
I don´t want to live
But I pray this curse will end someday
3. As the Demon devours me
Creatures of the night
fly with me
we gather before the stars
In the mist of the night
in fear we thrive
veiled in darkness
We live in this world
condemned for our sins
Satan smiles as we cry
Banished from light
we keep sorrow within
eternal life in a bad dream
Chorus:
As I am devoured
my tears will flood the land
Spells have lost their might
as my life blows away like sand
4. Through the eyes of the owl
5. Ages ago
Ages ago in the deepest forest
I sold my soul to Satan
Boiling pure of hate within
to spread my guilt stained with sin
This life brought me nothing but pain
I wish to repay
Infect the world with the sorrow I felt
As I was cast into life without choice
I will not find peace in life or death
Forever I haunt you mortal souls
Crystals of tears falls from my eyes
when I think of the life I left behind
Eternal sleep won't reach me here
Floating soulless over the boundaries of death
Blue mist covering my path
where no mortal dare thread
6. On broken wings
Pulsing through snow anklehigh
a flood of memories runs through my brain
The art of suffering pushes me over the edge
Drives me insane
Chorus:
Without my wings I'm bound to die
You cut them off with words somehow
Falling down on razortongues
I'm not sure I'll survive
Calm as appearance but inside roars a storm
with rage it tears down my will
I want to discover the truth in you lies
I'll never know what dwells behind your eyes
Chorus
When I was low you used to pick me up
Now I am destined to fall
Through pits of fire, hell and demise
never again will I stand tall
Chorus
7. Doomed to forever Wander
