Before the Gates Lyrics


As the dread sun rises

I hear the crows above

In this cursed permafrost

I am bound to you my love

In this tragedy eternal

I've seen a thousand souls come and go

But I remain

By the crypt bearing your name!

Tragedy eternal

I've seen a thousand souls come and go But still I wait

By the grave bearing your name!

Into the frozen earth, I lowered you

Your casket, in the soil decay...

Alone, alone I watched you fade away

Tragedy eternal

I've seen a thousand souls come and go

But I remain

By the crypt bearing your name

Tragedy eternal

I've seen a thousand souls come and go

But still I wait

By the grave bearing your name

Before the gates!

I stand alone

Before the gates

Where my heart turned to stone

Turn to stone Turn to stone Turn to stone

Bound to this mortal world, I wait

Before the gates
