Aeternum - Shadowed Face Lyrics


Feel the life run out of your body

Oh love what is it what came over me

I lost you before I experienced your love

Dark is the night, deep is the red of blood

No, I can't beg mercy before a god

I lost my love, I lost my soul

Hidden in shadows the creature lurks

I take a look in the gleaming mirror

The candle in my back burns the time

Burying my face in shadows and soft light

The wick is down, the reflection fades to grey

The wounded soul cries in fear and pain

A lost love I carry to her restless peace

Damned to hunt me through my darkest dreams

A face covered by shadows almost like the mine

I cannot awake, I cannot die, no chance

A shadow lurks beyond shadows, so dark

For my soul, I murdered my love, she's dead

May I confess, may I realize - too late

One more walk into the realm of shadows

One more confrontation with your torment

And no more free, fettered to lust for blood

No more.... no more...

And no more love, my heart bleeding shadows
