SEVENTH ANGEL LYRICS

1. Chaos Of Dreams


I have seen the shadows
Falling on the fields
Endless march of progress
Endless march of greed

In the midst of turmoil
Frozen still or running scared
From the hands of chaos
Tearing down the world we shared
(Lost in moments, lost forever)

Did you see a world
Endless, vast and free?
Was it ever real?
Can it ever be?

In the midst of turmoil
Frozen still or running scared
From the hands of chaos
Tearing down the world we shared

Close your eyes and dream
Of things that were not as they seemed
Again the time has come to learn
That nothing lasts
[2x]

In the midst of turmoil
Frozen still or running scared
From the hands of chaos
Tearing down the world we shared
Lost in moments, lost forever


2. The Turning Tide


The turning tide - Will we survive?
The drowning of our former lives
The waves that flood our weary minds
And all the promise left behind

The tide spares no-one
Time cares for no-one

In creeping cold I walked alone
Forever searching for a passage home
The freezing wind on broken skin
Hoping somewhere a pulse still beats within

The tide spares no-one
Time cares for no-one

No more looking back
Life will not wait for us
This well-beaten track
unfolds again
So follow on, traveler
Follow on

The ticking clocks will never wait
Searching for answers that come too late
The wasted moments in the dark
The tears, the scars, the broken hearts

The tide spares no-one
Time cares for no-one

Was it just an empty promise?
You would be waiting for us


3. Exordium


Here at the beginning
Betrothed to one another
Ravaged by the beauty
The euphony of whispers

Here at The Unveiling
Antiquity of empires
Jaded by affliction
We wake to see the dawn

We thirst, turn us not away
In tears, the taste of you remains

In the beginning, at the end of all things
I am
In the beginning, at the end of all things
I am suffering

I am broken
Cast me not away from you
Forgotten
Wake me from this sleep of death

Your heart reveals my pain
Your heart reveals my pain

Here at The Unveiling
Antiquity of empires
Jaded by affliction
We wake to see the dawn


4. Weep Not For Us


I am weak, I am strong
I am anything that will make me belong
I am proud, I'm ashamed
I am looking for someone to carry the blame

Weep not for us
We rest in peace
Our charred remains
Eternity
[2x]

I will sleep, I will wake
I will offer my soul for someone to take
I will hate, I will crave
I will promise to lay down my life once again

Weep not for us
We rest in peace
Our charred remains
Eternity
[2x]

Mercy, laughter
Gallows that whisper
Jaded garlands we wear
Twilight, faithful
Silent in circles
Candles flicker and fade

I recall we were young
When our lives had just begun
I remember we would dream
Slow engulf serenity

Mercy, laughter
Gallows that whisper
Jaded garlands we wear
Twilight, faithful
Silent in circles
Candles flicker and fade

I recall we were young
When our lives had just begun
I remember we would dream
Slow engulf serenity

Weep not for us
We rest in peace
Our charred remains
Eternity
[2x]


5. Abélard And Heloise


[Abelard:]
"I remove to a distance from your person with an intention of avoiding you as an enemy; and yet I incessantly seek for you in my mind; I recall your image in my memory, and in different disquietudes I betray and contradict myself. I hate you! I love you!"

[Heloise:]
"But if I lose you, what have I left to hope for? Why continue on life's pilgrimage, for which I have no support but you, and none in you save the knowledge that you are alive, now that I am forbidden all other pleasures in you, and denied even the joy of your presence which from time to time could restore me to myself?"

[Abelard:]
"I am at this moment afraid I should seem more indifferent than you fare, and yet I am ashamed to discover my trouble.

Ah, Heloise, how far are we from such a happy temper?

Your heart still burns with that fatal fire you cannot extinguish, and mine is full of trouble and unrest.

Think not, Heloise, that I here enjoy a perfect peace; I will for the last time open my heart to you; I am not yet disengaged from you, and though I fight against my excessive tenderness for you, in spite of all my endeavours I remain but too sensible of your sorrows and long to share in them."

The hollow bell rings
The cloistered hearts yearn to forget
These mournful but dear remembrances
Sought solace never met

I promise myself that I will forget, yet I cannot
Your words that burn within my heart my bitter tears shall blot
The tree from which I tasted fruit displays now naught but leaves
This history of misfortunes made my heart bleed within me

My heart is pierced with your sorrows, pierced with mine own
With my face pressed I mix my tears with earth, the earth my home
When all is finished, you'll be near, cold ashes need not fear
My tomb shall be the richer for them, lover ever near

The violent motion of my heart
Our sufferings and revolutions
Though time aught to have closed my wounds,
they open up and bleed afresh
Your words sufficient, they bleed afresh

Cold ashes need not fill
our sufferings and revolutions
[4x]


6. In Ruins


Dwelling in ruins
Swallowing poison
Carving out wounds on the hands that held you
Spitting hate on the fools who cared

Have they broken you?

There is no reason
to live in this prison
Proudly display all your chains and your tears
Run away when the pain tears your life apart

Abusing and cursing - you are betrayed
Blame is never on your shoulders
Always pulling further away
All that could have been - so distant

Entering again and again
into your self-created nightmare
Erasing all that remains
Waking again to yourself and your hatred and pain
Entering again and again
into your self-created nightmare
Run away once again
Never see the damage you have done

Dwelling in ruins
Drowning in poison
Dwelling in ruins
Drowning in poison

Have you broken them?

Leaving your ruins
Spreading new poison
Carving old wounds on all who defy you
Spitting hate as they disappear


7. Lamentations


Did you leave me here all alone?
Crown my head with tears, love unknown
Climb these narrow stairs, walk with me
We shall cast our cares into the sea

Break the chains that seek to bind us
Speak the Word to free us all
Break the chains that seek to bind us
Speak the Word to free us all

Brittle hands that long to hold
Guard my flesh in bitter cold
We abide beneath this veil
Will we ever be?

Sun and moon and stars hide away
Blood pour, spirit wound, Agnus Dei
If I lose my way, mourn my birth
If we are but clay, lament the earth

Brittle hands that long to hold
Guard my flesh in bitter cold
Fractured limbs that try to heal
Will we ever be?

Sun and moon and stars hide away
Blood pour, spirit wound, Agnus Dei
If I lose my way, mourn my birth
If we are but clay, lament the earth

Twilight embraces this world
Languid, bejeweled so frail
Autumn, daughter of spring
Farewell fainthearted one

Laughter, transient sleep
Hallowed, shining of fire

Treasure candlelight dear
Night falls, heaven draws near

Laughter, transient sleep
Hallowed, shining of fire

Did you leave me here all alone?
Crown my head with tears, love unknown
Climb these narrow stairs, walk with me
We shall cast our cares into the sea

Break the chains that seek to bind us
Speak the Word to free us all
Break the chains that seek to bind us
Speak the Word to free us all


8. The Raven Sky


This blood flows thick with the dust of years
This vain catharsis of bitter tears
This inner sanctum of human hands
Can't give me shelter, it will not stand

Velvet walls conceal the crown of thorns from me
Rise, faint heart and lift your eyes to see the light has come

This burden carried, too great to bear
This flesh decaying borne of despair
This cruel affliction: the raven sky
Bring me salvation or watch me die

Velvet walls conceal the crown of thorns from me
Rise, faint heart and lift your eyes to see the light has come

[2x]
Quell the river's flow, bury me below
Take this cup from me, filled with memories
Can this life be saved from the silent grave?
Tear the raven sky, bring light to these eyes

Quell the river's flow, bury me below
all that once I desired
Take this cup from me, filled with memories
reaching out from the fire
Can this life be saved from the silent grave
yearning for me to come to the end?
Tear the raven sky, bring light to these eyes
Searching for a way out of this hell

This blood flows thick with the dust of years
This vain catharsis of bitter tears
This cruel affliction: the raven sky
Bring me salvation or watch me die

[2x]
Velvet walls conceal the crown of thorns from me
Rise, faint heart and lift your eyes to see the light has come


9. Oświęcim


I will not forget your name
I will not forget what happened to you
I will not forget a sky without birds
Graves without earth
Tears without words
I will not forget your name
I will not forget what happened to you
I will not forget what happened to you
