HANGING GARDEN LYRICS

1. Sleep Of Ages

Through aeons in sleep
We close our eyes to get away
Through ages astray
We close our minds to negate

In the end we all fall
In the end we all fall
Every soul, all alone
Every heart, turned to stone
we fall, down below
In damnation, in a dark glow

Lost inside a hopeless gloom
We are alive, yet dead inside
Deep In slumber, in the endless doom
Our cores decay and slowly die

In the end we all fall
In the end we all fall
Every soul, all alone
Every heart, turned to stone
we fall, down below
In damnation, in a dark glow

Guide us back into the light
Show us the gate within
Proffer us a release
In the emptiness we will suffocate

2. As The Circle Fades

Demons among us
Have set the way
Of our remaining days
Sank our hears to woe
Suppresses our faith
Crucified with rusty nails

A thousand cries inside
This serene grief holds me
In a place surreal
Inside closing walls of retreat

We live past hope
Degenerate
In god-forsaken play
As the circle fades
We will all be erased

A thousand cries i hide
This dead-end being drains me
Chokes out all the life
Inside closing walls of retreat

In the wind worn-out halters sway
Our loved ones left to hang
Signs of defeat, we unveiled
Fill the air with the scent of crushing end

In the wind worn-out halters sway
Our precious ones we desecrate
This spoilt Eden will be purified
From the ashes of men, a new era ascends

The circle fades away
We have no more time
The circle fades away
There is no more time

3. Ethereal Passing

[Instrumental]

4. Shards Of Life

Among this dying scene
I try to pull together
Scattered beauty, Shards of life
The waning ruins of mankind

For you to see
My unborn child

Like statues in the rain
We watch tomorrow fade away
Hang our heads in pain
We disregard our fate

Clam – is the dawn without a sounds
Cold – is the day without the light
Silent death attends every death we take
Dead – is the world in my eyes

Bounds up in memories
I treasure images
Of our abode left to die
Of what we have forfeit

I feel ashamed
For what leave behind

Like statues in the rain
We watch tomorrow fade away
Hang our heads in pain
We disregard our fate

Clam – is the dawn without a sounds
Cold – is the day without the light
Silent death attends every death we take
Dead – is the world in my eyes

We live among the dead scene

5. Paper Doves

With every breaking dawn
We scar the earth
In a blind mindless way
We feed our growing pain

Disinclined to see
In our cores diseased
We carry the plague

With every passing day
More beauty we erase
The groves, the glades
Our world we devastate

Disinclined to see
That springs will fail
That colours will fade

And the shadows shout
A nightmare scream
In the black desert
In every restless dream

In the clouding distance
The paper doves fly
Someone declares
The end of time
In the clouding distance
Black fumes arise
In fear decayed souls collide

And the shadows shout
A nightmare scream
In every wasteland
Within you, within me

6. Stillborn

[Instrumental]

[Lyrics from the booklet:]
"You never said a word
You never cried a tear
Your still eyes stared at me
Your soul had disappeared

Still, you light my morn
Little one, stillborn
This bleak world
You'll always adorn"

7. The Mourners Plain

Since your death
In these burning shades of dusk
Still I crave
While plunging through this mourners plain

Into depths
I summon them to swallow me away
Until the end
Deeper wounds draw me the way

Astray i flow onto this world
And depart from this life
Life in disdain
The further i drift
In a reverie now stained red
The deeper i fall
Into timeless rest

At the sight of your rest
I bear witness to a loss
What ever tempted you
You must have felt it stronger then I do

Thirteen seasons
And no solace guides me
Come spring and the warming sun
But I have died once

Grant me sleep
In the crimson sea of life
An i cherish
This darkness of hope and light

8. Fall Into Tehom

A starless dark
Dazed eyes of a child
Disbelief inside
A bleak scene
That slowly dies
Our ravished paradise
Will show us how small we are

Low-handing clouds
Pour rain down
Soiled water overfloats
Covers all the ground

An unlit sky
Garden of lost souls
Empty echoes vanish away
Distant faint prayers
Our future’s despaired
A cold gale blows into our hearts
Our ravished paradise
Will show us how small we are

Low-handing clouds
Pour rain down
Soiled water overfloats
Covers all the ground

No longer beat the hearts
No longer fleet the clouds
No longer blows the with
As we all drown
Into dark water

No longer do the flowers bloom
No longer do the birds sing
No longer do our children play
As we all drown
Where are the gods now
Where hides the salvation
When we drown
Into dark waters
