Dark Tranquility - Of Chaos & Eternal Night Lyrics
This is a tale long to live but alas so short to tellBy the wind and by time, by everything that fleesA torment of my liking: exploring extremesAll thoughts secluded as fear stalks its blooded soilIn the winding path where a chain now rattlesWith links merely death can breakStains of pride - derelictIn feverish visions of agonising lightPulsating rhythms unpureSo pound the drum and strike the chords of chaosSo scream out to the skies:Of chaos and eternal nightNever is the dark any threat to my existenceComforting ravens claws grip the stars that fell tonightThe stealth of infinite beautyNevertheless heaven fell tonightRacing along with the strangled teardropLifes elixir in benevolent lustSlit open the throat that is virtueLet fire ravage its caverns with joyArdent but silent in twilight resignedDelivered from virtue in vehement plightYet ask not of your vanity(the hooved agitator in your creed)To let loose all the stars of heavenStray across the vault your seedConcealed cravings must through fulfilment be brokenHide no longer behind the veil of unconvincing liesSo pound the drum and strike the chords of chaosSo scream out to the skiesOf chaos and eternal nightIve seen fires waving patternsForging ornaments - hidden from a world of distressGrace through hatredOf chaos and eternal nightIn shadows now vengeful waiting out your bitter foeThe mirror distortsSinful is the perceiving eyeTearless in nondescript formScarlet secrets tell of nightmarish fearIllusions that speak of endless nightA venture in terms of one hazardous journeyInto chaos and eternal nightDeliver me from virtue,Hidden no more beneath tender veil of liesAnd let em all out;Unseen and sinful... of chaos and eternal night
