"The Long Darkness" lyrics

"The Long Darkness"

And the sun, as we looked into the sky
Was cold, was dead, was gone
Welcome the everlasting dawn
We clearly lost this fight
And silent lies the earth

And the clouds, as far as the eye can see
They are black and bring the ashen rain
Leave no soil that's left to drain
Will soon become the night
And silent lies the earth

All you've ever known
Turned into a nightmare
Close your eyes
And wake up in hell
All your crimson tears
Slowly drip down to the ground
Close your eyes
And wake up in hell

And the wind, as we're rising from the ground
Refuses us the air to breathe
Carries the unseen disease
Buries lands in dust
And silent lies the earth

And life, as we realised what came to pass
Is just a shade of what it used to be
Soon I will return to thee
And silent I will rest
And silent lies the earth

All you've ever known
Turned into a nightmare
Close your eyes
And wake up in hell
All your crimson tears
Slowly drip down to the ground
Close your eyes
And wake up in hell

I will go and seek out my fortune
Wherever this path here may lead
More death and doom awaits me
A strange world now indeed this has become

I'm set forth on this quest the way it is
Bound to make my torturers all bleed
My death and doom awaits me
My journey now it only has begun

Through fallen stars and ruins I wander
Looking for the lost souls to find
I'll gather them behind me
Forming the last hope for all mankind

I will go and seek out my fortune
Wherever this path here may lead
More death and doom awaits me
A strange world now indeed
We roam forevermore

All you've ever known
Turned into a nightmare
Close your eyes
And wake up in hell
All your crimson tears
Slowly drip down to the ground
Close your eyes
And wake up in hell

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo...
