CULT OF LUNA LYRICS

1. The Silent Man

Silence came crawling
There is a man at the door
In the absence of light
We merge with our shadows

Rise and ride my friend
Together we'll bring on the end

The water seems darker
A scent of fear is in the air
Eyes in every corner
Movements everywhere

Heavy is the burden
Clouds roll in to rectify
Step by step we falter
And all good things must die

The door can't withstand his voice
With heavy strides he enter
Deliverance at last
He speaks words from the dead

Rise and ride my friend
Together we'll bring on the end

Rise and ride my friend
Together we'll bring on the end
We'll bring on the end

"In dreams I see what's coming
Wolves in man's clothing
There is no escape for the meek
The ground beneath them is eroding."

2. Lay Your Head to Rest

When, when sleep is your only refuge
When shed tears are gone
Lay your head to rest
Lay your head to rest beside me

When, when you are falling, falling
When ghosts chant your name
Lay your head to rest
Lay your head to rest and follow

Let's set out for the horizon
Let's chase the sunrise
We are the stars that light up the sky

And as I burn out, you will carry me as I carried you
And as I burn out, you will carry me as I carried you
When I lay my head to rest
When I lay my head to rest

3. A Dawn to Fear

A dawn to fear
Feet so cold and heavy
The rift divides
Separates light from dark

A dawn to fear
Fists raised in defiance
The morning breaks
Callous like a wave

A dawn to fear
Clouds dissolve
To spite the end
To give praise
We are all her kin

The skyline marks a border
To what never will return
Rage keeps the fire burning
The blood seals our bound

A dawn to fear
Cling on to the night
A dawn to fear

A dawn to fear
Cling on to the night
A dawn to fear

A dawn to fear
A dawn to fear

4. Nightwalkers

There is a fire in your voice
There is a fire
There is a fire in your voice
There is a fire

The river of light is running dry
Eyes are burning
Deceiving the heart
I hear howls from the northern dogs
There is a fire in their voices

Crowned in colours of fall
And the setting sun in her hand
I see children run towards dying light
There is a fire in her voice

Dusk sets a tone
Reminds us of what is to come
This night is a window
We offer our admission and return home

Dusk sets a tone
Reminds us of what is to come
This night is a window
We offer our admission and return home

There is a fire in my voice
There is a fire
There is a fire in my voice
There is a fire

5. Lights on the Hill

This land owns him
It speaks through his bones
Deeper cuts than any man could endure

Time is not his ally
Like water hollows out stone
Anger sparks the will to see the world burn

A pariah with a heavy heart
His vision is long gone
An outcast doomed to wander alone
Under a pine his rage dances on

From afar, just a light on the hill
Until his hate rains down on them
An answer summoned from all his might
Balls of fire and lightning that strikes
Death cannot break their bond

6. We Feel the End

Break, break‚ break
We break the silence with our heartbeats
With our heartbeats

Sleep‚ sleep‚ sleep
Our eyes are shut, my hands are shaking
Bodies aching

We are
We are trying
We are
We are trying

Wake, wake‚ wake
As waves of fear come crashing down
All around us

Breathe, breathe, breathe
We feel the end is getting near
We are still here

We are
We are trying
We are
We are trying

7. Inland Rain

Black roots run through me like veins
Igniting fires
Delivering life
The night brings time to an end
Silence changes form
I return

At last words will be spoken with heart
In air they form the thoughts that they carry

Eyes of the forest
Stakes driven through frost
Stones are laid out
A circle for those who lost

My children will work this land
With devout hands
With harvest on mind

Stones are laid out
Stones are laid out

Here comes the rain
The falling sky
The hidden road
The direction home

8. The Fall

Rise from your grave
Bow to her name
Every single word she speaks is golden
One drop of all nights I have wandered
Could fill your empty void

Close that shallow gap
The pain is a rebirth
Leave your empty skin to rot
Long have you waited
The steps behind you decay into nothing

At the edge of your memory
A being that ceased to be
Rise from your grave
Bow to her name

At the edge of your memory
A being that ceased to be
Rise from your grave
Bow to her name

In the fall came the rain
Flooded the fields
Cleansed what remained
With new eyes she appears
But I am no longer here
