PARADISE LOST LYRICS
"Frozen Illusion" (1989 Demo)
1. Paradise Lost
2. Internal Torment
3. Frozen Illusion
1. Paradise Lost
(1) Claws of death, grips my life
Empty my mind and my knowledge is deceased
Mindless and dumb, instinct gone.
(2) Running in circles
Not knowing where my fate lies...
(3) Blinding, running through the eternal maze
Surrounded by people the same
Not knowing this place as the darkness falls above...
Will we ever see the sun deteriorate away?
(4) Feelings disappear
Your eyes stare blank
Another world to greet
Life now ends......
(Repeat verses 2 + 3)
2. Internal Torment
(1) As you stare into the depths of darkness
Illusions of your mind pressured by horror
Standing on a plain of desolation
The streams of frozen mist are shattered by the sun
Travel through the uncaring skies
Prepare for this defeat
Once you're dead your eyes are shut forever
Is it just the darkness that greets our pleas?
(2) Trapped in my skull, sanities locked inside
Can't express my feelings, the pain I must hide
My body possessed by an unseen force
Crippled for life
As I try to speak my voice...
No physical pain you will feel
Is this mental insanity real?
(Chorus)
No future an obscenity
Why was I chosen to suffer?
Hoping I wake up and the curse has left my soul
(3) Attempts at speech are drowned in laughter
I writhe and grit my teeth in anger... why...?
Not allowed to make decisions
If only I could tell them all I can think
(4) In my afterlife, I'll rise again
Destroy all the ones who laughed
Kill them all...
Able to think, flex my limbs, talk and socialise, live my life
3. Frozen Illusion
I lay in the darkest room,
The door is locked, at chains I grasp...
The chill runs through my bones
In panic I grief. Oh please help me die...
The walls close in on my existence
Unreal illusions re-appear
Darkness increases still...
Frozen illusion
I lay in the darkest room
As images appear once more...
The chill runs through my bones
My body is stiff as my soul departs the earth.
