"Sweet Leaf" lyrics
"Sweet Leaf"
Oh, sweet leaf
Swaying in the wind
Under stars and moon
And sunrise gloom
Hanging on to the tree that gives you life
Oh, sweet leaf
Has your time come?
Will your journey begin?
I'm afraid of falling and falling
With the wind
Away, away from your origins
Oh, sweet leaf
Why did you leave?
Why didn't you stay?
How can I be your guardian angel?
When you are away?
Oh, dear father
Let me tell you
I'd love to sway in the wind
Under stars and moon
And sunrise gloom
Clinging on to you
Oh, dear father
Can't you see?
I'm not running away
I'm just searching for the real me
Oh, dear mother
Why do we have to go?
Why don't we stay?
How can we be yours?
When we are always away?
Oh, sweet leaf
When your time comes

Run
Run for the morning sun

Dredg - "Another Tribe" I've forgotten how to smile
A common relapse, an ocean of change within
I didn't know I was going to be the prey
Until it was already much too late
They always say they're against the grain
Come on,...
Blackfield - "My Gift Of Silence" If I compiled all my crimes and my lies into amnesty
Would you come back to me?
The smile on my lips is a sign that I don't hear you leaving me
And I don't hear my own soul scream

Ihsahn - "Pulse" Too proud
Too ashamed
Incompatible
I don't know
What I fear the most
What I am
Or what I'm not
The chemistry
Of the fallen soul
That being broken
Is what make it whole
Too proud
Too ashamed...
Leprous - "Below" All of my stories are below
(Below)
Beneath the surface cannot grow
(Grow, grow, grow)
Curled and naked I defer
(I defer)
To shaky thoughts all in a blur
Every single fear I'm hiding
