Death And The Labyrinth
AT THE GATES · At War With Reality 2014 · Track 02 of 12
Music: Anders Björler, Jonas Björler · Lyrics: Tomas Lindberg
Behind the curtain Laid to ruins Words that drift Into oblivion
With every dawn The world deforms And as we fade Our truth it dies
Our poetry of broken dreams An abattoir of time
Deep in the hive of the serpent We shed the disguises we have worn A curtain of madmen We are the illusions we have torn
Death and the labyrinth Swallowed by earth itself
With every dawn Of hunger and thirst The world deforms To a pale uncertain ash
Words without sound Fade away - as they are swallowed Swallowed by barriers and walls Like a swarm
Deep in the hive of the serpent We shed the disguises we have worn A curtain of madmen We are the illusions we have torn
Our poetry of broken dreams An abattoir of time
Death and the labyrinth Swallowed by earth itself
