RIVERWOOD LYRICS

1. Believing

[Instrumental]

2. Poisoned Love

You've stolen my heart and just left me in agony
Scarred and wounded by your dark and heartless fantasy
Your poisoned love controls their souls
You've killed them all and ran so far

Awakened the devils
Defaced all the souls that you found
Caustic like the fire
Burned all the hearts around

The sky will die when the sun goes home
But how can the trees live without any roots
The devil and you wear the same evil smile
Angels can't escape your forsaken damned lies

Awakened the devils
Defaced all the souls that you found
Caustic like the fire
Burned all the hearts around

3. Nightfall Overture

[originally by Nightingale]

Just another midnight hour
Enjoying the cold of a dark winter night
I see the darkness devour
Everything that once was light
And the stars in the sky
Are so lifeless and so grey

I'm walking in the light of the moon
When the night repairs the day
From the trees comes a mournful tune, oh
I am not alone I can hear them say
The moon is your guide
There is no place you can hide

Oh, when the night comes down
And all the colours turns black and white
Oh, when the night comes down
And the dark is conducting the nightfall overture

Who am I in the eyes of the world
What have I done that will remain
Who am I? Will I ever know?
But right now I am the king of this winter lane, oh

Is there anybody out there?
In the middle of the mist in the field
The air here don't relieve me anymore
Something is here that I have never felt before
I've never felt before...

I am lost in the maze of the night
I'm surrounded by lights so dark
Am I losing all track of time?
I'm trying to come out of this endless park

And the air is so dry
I can hear the daylight cry

Oh, when the night comes down
And all the colours turns black and white
Oh, when the night comes down
And the dark is conducting the nightfall overture

4. Möt ditt öde (Meeting Death)

Darkening skies below the sea.
Marching through the mighty waves
A ship is standing tall

Fairytale that has never been seen
Yet it haunts their dreams
Devours their minds

When the darkness kissed
The lips of the skies
And the sea has turned into grey
Horrific visions came by
As the ship will fall
They all gonna die

Möt ditt öde

Sailing beneath the ocean's gravity
On its frozen floor
Sunlight doesn't rise

And floating remains of elder war machines
Rusting skeletons
Are hanging from above

When the darkness kissed
The lips of the skies
And the sea has turned into gray
Horrific visions came by
As the ship will fall
They all gonna die

When the waters kissed
The lips of their fate
And the blood in their veins was running cold
Shallow hearts
There is no escape
From the creatures they behold

Möt ditt öde

The storm
Is getting dark
The ship is sinking down
Is this the end

A funeral
No one attends
Whisper in the dark
I'll haunt you down in the bedtime stories

Möt ditt öde
Möt ditt öde
Möt ditt öde
Möt ditt öde

5. Marionette

If he could see the gleam in heaven
He could believe her once again
Hiding in the heart that's cold and blind

She would demand his pure devotion
Like a drifter in a storm
Searching for a place that's safe and warm

And she will be there once again
Before his plight
Embrace the soul
The treason set aflame

As she steals his soul away
Before the war
For then he'll be
A mere puppet in her game

When the feeling dies
And the seeds are sown
When she calls his name
And his fear of the Godless will be from afar

She will steal his soul
All the joy will bleed
To concede for the heaven's lie
See the lighting strike through the rain
When the feeling dies

He feels the demon control him
Tear his mind away again
Tortured by the lust
Inside in dream

When he sees her face in the fire
Like a burning burial ground
Taken to where this hell is called home

And in the solitude of prayers
He feels the pain
A crushing blow
His savior never came

As if she held him in her arms
Falling blind
Betrayed by love
The loner bleeds the same

When the feeling dies
And the seeds are sown
When she calls his name
And his fear of the Godless will be from afar

She will steal his soul
All the joy will bleed
To concede for the heaven's lie
See the lighting strike through the rain

When the healing dies
And the words have gone
With the gall to blame
And his love of the helpless will be torn apart

She will force his hand
And the sick will bleed
To control his faith to defy
In the frightening light though the pain
When the healing dies

(When the healing dies)

When the feeling dies
And the seeds are sown
When she calls his name
And his fear of the Godless will be from afar

She will steal his soul
All the joy will bleed
To concede for the heaven's lie
See the lighting strike through the rain

(When the feeling dies)

6. Gates Below

[Instrumental]

7. Fairytale

Afraid of walking down
This empty road alone
But there's so many stories
That were left untold
Smells like a rotten core
Death moves up in the air
Tho I need to put an end
To your fairytale
Fairytale

So I breath in this atmosphere
Build a weapon inside of me
As the past is fading out
I'm digging in
I'm throwing my fears away
Surviving out today
Won't live a life in the rain
I'm whole again

Falling hard
Into the fear
Broken hearts
The night is here
Worlds burn before my eyes
As if it's my demise
Dive into the dark
Soul feeding and on their hearts
Hear the voices scream
For your fairytale

So I breath in this atmosphere
Build a weapon inside of me
As the past is fading out
I'm digging in
I'm throwing my fears away
Surviving out today
Won't live a life in the rain
I'm whole again

I saw something moving near the open waters
I've tried to come closer but it disappeared
I feel someone is breathing behind me
But when I look back I only see my shadow
No.. It cannot be my shadow
It doesn't follow my moves
I'm not alone
There's someone here

8. Queen Of The Night

Once was a time in the white desert cold
A place she could call her home
And then came the darkness grievance and hate
From the hands of love she is afraid

Black endless nights in the shadows of hell
Her fearful mind has gone beyond the sun

Skies have called for the help of the sea
Over the hills where the people died
What future will be with the cloud and the trees?
To be the queen of the night

And tale carries on
And tale carries on
And tale carries on
And on

9. Lost In Nature

[Instrumental]

10. Möt ditt öde (Meeting Death) Pt. 2

Darkening skies below the sea.
Marching through the mighty waves
A ship is standing tall

Fairytale that has never been seen
Yet it haunts their dreams
Devours their minds

When the darkness kissed
The lips of the skies
And the sea has turned into grey
Horrific visions came by
As the ship will fall
They all gonna die

Möt ditt öde

Sailing beneath the ocean's gravity
On its frozen floor
Sunlight doesn't rise

And floating remains of elder war machines
Rusting skeletons
Are hanging from above

When the darkness kissed
The lips of the skies
And the sea has turned into gray
Horrific visions came by
As the ship will fall
They all gonna die

When the waters kissed
The lips of their fate
And the blood in their veins was running cold
Shallow hearts
There is no escape
From the creatures they behold

Möt ditt öde

The storm
Is getting dark
The ship is sinking down
Is this the end

A funeral
No one attends
Whisper in the dark
I'll haunt you down in the bedtime stories

Möt ditt öde
Möt ditt öde
Möt ditt öde
Möt ditt öde
