CELLAR DARLING LYRICS

1. Avalanche

Freeze your pain
It won't take long
Take my hand and hear me call

This is who we are

Ease your fear
Elevate
Lay with me and close your eyes

Cover me with snow
Freeze me to death
Forever I'll lay in the alpine bed
Seasons will change
But I shall remain
Stripped bare of my coat
I will rest in peace

2. Black Moon

See the signs adorning the sky
With fear in your eyes
In hope of a sunrise

Hearts beat fast as the moon turns black
And the trees catch fire from the bleeding sky
Stars are fading and the sun won't show
All their hearts are beating as the moon turns black

To the edge
To the moon
We will be swept away
It's the end, the end, the end
Hear them cry out
To the moon
Oh will the earth abide?
It's the end, the end, the end

End it may
With ice or in flames
Your tears will dry
In hope of the divine

Hearts beat fast
Moon turns black

3. Challenge

The time is nigh
I follow
All the echoes reciting to me
I'll read the sky
And follow
The footsteps my enemies left for me

This is the sound, this is the sound, this is the sound hear me shout it out loud

Challenge me to the death
With my feet stuck to the ground
How can we cherish our inner demons
Without shouting it, letting it, fighting it out

Challenge me 'til the early dawn
With my hands tied at the back
I know I'll bring you down
To your knees at last
Crying mercy, mercy, have mercy on me

I can't deny you're hollow
And I can't wait to bring you down
Delights my eyes
Your sorrow
And feeds my old ever so vengeful heart

This is the sound, this is the sound, this is the sound of you hitting the ground
This is the sound, shout it out loud, shout it, shout it, shout it out loud

4. Hullaballoos

Once a pillar in the ground
My ceaseless gaze behind the sky
As endlessly the heavens wept
Commence, eternal flood

Hullaballoos
Sorrow, dread and fear
What did they do to me?
I was a statue
Stone-cold, iron heart
They have bewitched me
With love, hate, fear, tears, agony and regret

Now I crumble, turn to sand
Eternal waters, I give in
As my peak becomes the shore
Forever drowned I am

Hullaballoos
Sorrow, dread and fear
What did they do to me?
I was a statue
Stone-cold, iron heart
They have bewitched me
With love, hate, fear, tears, agony and regret

5. Six Days

On the first day of nothing
The moon told him to go
Or punished he shall be
With gusts of freezing cold

On the second day of nothing
The sun begged him to leave
Or she shall embrace him
Burns deep under his skin

On the third day of nothing
The planets screamed with rage
United they'd be
And cast him out with flames

On the fourth day of nothing
The Devil said hello
Embracing all the gods he knew
The games they shall begin

On the fifth day of nothing
He felt his skin dissolve
And felt the rain pouring down
Although the sky was dry

The world, it has vanished
All that's left are shards of stone
And one faithful man
Who hasn't yet let go
The universe swallowed
Every single thing he loved
And the planets don't know, oh
Why he's holding on

The world, it has vanished
All that's left are shards of stone
And one faithful man
Who hasn't yet let go
The universe swallowed
Every single thing he loved
And the planets don't know, oh
Why he's holding on

Hold on to a fraction of your sanity
Hold on, hold on
Go on, live in consciousness eternally
Go on, go on

On the sixth day of nothing
Salvation was announced
It rang allowed in his head
Only for him to hear
Surrounding him vast nothingness
The punishment's at halt
And all that he could ask himself
Was why did I hold on?

6. The Hermit

Lonesome soul
Where did you go?

An aging wall of stone impedes the path
Guarding the old man's tranquil hearth
Forever alone, awaiting the unknown

Hoi polloi. Hoi hoi polloi
He has turned his back on you
Hoi polloi. Hoi hoi polloi
Ward his solemn soul from you
Never held, never felt love

Cold and tired
The old man dies

A raging fire befall the path
Holding the ashes of his lair
Forever alone, forever at home

Hoi polloi. Hoi hoi polloi
He has turned his back on you
Hoi polloi. Hoi hoi polloi
Ward his solemn soul from you
Never held, never felt love

7. Water

Petrichor, scent of life
Water's lore
The euphony of the rain

Blissful silence takes over
From the storm
Silken the ocean from the sun
Turning a blind eye
Forgetting we're at war
Beauty distracting
From what's real
Alone, I'm alone

8. Fire, Wind & Earth

Here comes the storm

Fire was my faith
Earth you were my truth
Air you gave me life
As four we gave birth to the world

Now they choke me
Disrupt me
As I wither and dry up they're growing stronger

The flames are searing through the night
The ground beneath me is parting
Tortured by the wind
Brisk the storm embraces my wrath
Sealing my waves
Fire, wind and earth

Flames I could drown
Earth, you I held down
Air, I made you cry
Now I'm alone, they turned on me

Now they haunt me
They taunt me
I'm old and weak so soon I'll be no more

Now it's winter, I'm dying
Now it's colder, I'm freezing

9. Rebels

The sun was set
The light
The moon will call to arms
In the hours of night
Face the shame
Rule the world
I can't deny it
I wish I was your fool
Lie for our leaders
As they burn the vacant stakes
Come, douse the flames
Smoke of the fear of the falling sky
Thereupon, run the gaunt, anyone
Plead to leave utopia, fraudulent utopia
The sun was set

The light
The moon will call to arms
In the hours of night
Then the race
Bleed 'til it hurts
We won't engage you
But break away
Lie for our leaders
As they burn the vacant stakes
Come, douse the flames
Smoke of the fear of the falling sky
Thereupon, run the gaunt, anyone
Plead to leave utopia, fraudulent utopia
The sun was set
The light
The moon will call to arms
In the hours of night

10. Under the Oak Tree

Under the oak tree
My best friend lies
Under the oak tree
A part of me dies

You liked the sunshine
You loved the bed of snow in wintertime
Your innocence so blind
I wish we had time

Why did you go?
Why did you go?
I should have known
I should have known

Under the oak tree
Is my best friend's home
Under the oak tree
He lies all alone

I hope you understood
Things I meant to convey but never could
I thought you'd always be mine
I thought we had time

Why did you go?
Why did you go?
I should have known
I should have known

Once I realized the end
Coming near
Once I saw it in your eyes
I had to let you go

11. High Above These Crowns

I kiss the ground you are part of
I hear you calling my name
May your spirit rise
High above these crowns
May your breath become the wind
Whispering to me

I kiss the ground you are part of
I hear you calling my name
May your spirit rise
High above these crowns
May your breath become the wind
Whispering to me

I will let you go
I will let you go
I will let you go
I will let you go
I will let you go
I will let you go

(I will let you go)

12. Star Crusher

Lo and behold the fairy dust, run!
Lo and behold the fairy dust, run!
Splitting asunder
Our home
Roars of thunder and lightning
Try to stun her to no avail

(Hell-bent)
Hell-bent on crushing stars
She's come to haunt our dreams
Her dust will coat the skies
And poison our land

Be careful of the fairy dust, run!
Be careful of the fairy dust, run!
Splitting asunder of our home
Splitting asunder of the night sky

13. Hedonia

Rot send d'starne vom walke firmament
Chreie fluuged gschwend ond fliehed vorem tod
Alles verluuret d'farb ond leit sech still zor rueh
Oh au ech geb langsam uuf, schloof ii em truebe moos

Jadada
So truurig luegt de mond
Jadada
Erscht luuchtend no, jetzt tot

Wo mol mis dehei esch gsi erwartet mech nor asche
Alli baum vom grond vershlokt
Stiigt rauch zom himmel uuf
Schlooflose traumer, gsehsch du es liecht?
Gschpuursch du au d'sonne weich of dim gsicht?
Schatte schliiched scho dors tal
Wo mol labe gsi esch rueh
Wolche zeiged ehri zah
Onrueh herrscht am firmamant
Sonne, traum ned!
So truurig luegt de mond
Walk de himmel, eisch so farbefroh
Traumer, s'aend esch noh
Duschter, tag ond nacht

Alles verluuret d'farb ond leit sech still zor rueh
Alles wird grau ond kahl, bereit ond gwillt zom starbe
Alles verluuret d'farb ond leit sech still zor rueh

Rot, ein letscht starn
Rot, ond bald wirds schwarz
Hedonia, geb acht dis and esch noh
Luuchtendi starne verbleiched nohdisnoh
Hedonia, geb acht dis and esch noh
Luuchtendi starne verbleiched nohdisnoh

Alles verluuret d'farb ond leit sech still zor rueh
Alles verluuret d'farb ond leit sech still zor rueh
Alles verluuret d'farb ond leit sech still zor rueh
Alles verluuret d'farb ond leit sech still zor rueh

14. Redemption

Tell me of the moor
I've heard them say that it is true
That it it takes you in
Eliminates every piece of you

Forget it all

Take me to the moor where memories fade
And I'll begin anew
Walk with me this long remorseful path
Until I prevail

Forget it all
Sorrow until nightfall
Forget it all
Torment me until dawn

Forget it all
Sorrow until nightfall
Forget it all
Torment me until dawn

Take me to the moor where I will feel
Like a newborn
Dusk will lure me in, and make me pay for a new dawn

Forget it all
Sorrow until nightfall
Forget it all
Torment me until dawn

There's no doubt, I'm caving in
Giving in, letting go
Take me there, oh take me there
To the moor, to the end
Will I be innocent again?
Forget every single day?

Take me there, oh take me there
To the moor, to the end
Will I be innocent again?
Forget every single day?

Take me there, oh take me there
To the moor, to the end
Will I be innocent again?
Forget every single day?

Take me there, oh take me there
To the moor, to the end
