Katatonia - The Liquid Eye Lyrics

Katatonia Lyrics

"The Liquid Eye"

For the one waiting
A last day must come
Lock a cold chain
Around the hoping heart
A veil of shame
And sooner or later
The race will be on
Competing in depravity
The sordid game
Nights to come

Gradual descent
Red narcotic horizon
Resist no more
The future is not ours to evaluate
I've changed therefore

Gave up the semblance
The varnish dissolved
My currency expired
See the pact waning
Through the liquid eye

Gradual descent
Red narcotic horizon
Resist no more
(Claim the defeating prize)
The future is not ours to evaluate
I've changed therefore

My belongings all packed away
Elsewhere in the city
I remember the light of the day
Off-white and elusive
