Sonata Arctica - Dark Empath Lyrics

Sonata Arctica Lyrics

"Dark Empath"

Dark
Empath

Tell me you're only a token
Tell me you're forever broken
Feed me love
Feed me pain
Once upon a time the darkness of the night found you
Now you belong to me

So, you told everyone you're falling in love
With this wonderful guy, the kind you all have to see
Touching your soul, reaching your heart
Knowing your needs, making you beautiful
Walks on the beach, calling you "mon chéri"

Dancing tonight, holding you close
Scanning your pains, naming them, learning them
Feeding the love, sent from above
You think when I claim, you are my everything
Little too much, little too soon, you think
Some time soon you will learn that my love is

A riddle, I'm a mourning dove
Turning brittle, you shall become
What I need you to feed me, love
Intimidated, weep
Love me, feed me pain so deep
While I still need to hear you call me your love

Feed me, need me
Let me, bleed me
Love me, hate me
One day you will

Stand in the rain, alone in the dark
Wait for a train you know will never come
Hip-hip hooray, you can't wish me away
Now that I have the key and know when you're home alone
I have never let you know me, my love
Changing the locks, changing your name

I'm a riddle, I'm a mourning dove
Turning brittle, you shall become
What I need you to feed me, love
Intimidated, weep
Love me, feed me pain so deep
While I still need to hear you call me your love

Your love, always lonely
Feed me love, feed me pain
Weakness, you have shown me
Fills my dark, bruise-black heart
Always only mine you are
Perfect life, perfect I
(Perfect I)

You will learn how deep a bruise can be
You will learn my name, unriddle me
Once upon, guess I was made this way
Beauty, trusting love, my fuel, my prey

Tell me you're merely a token, my love
Tell me, you're forever broken

Riddle, I'm a mourning dove
Turning brittle, you shall become
What I need you to feed me, love
Intimidated, weep
Love me, feed me pain so deep
'Cause I still need your pain

Riddle, I'm mourning dove
Turning brittle, you shall become
What I need you to feed me, love
Intimidated, weep
Love me, feed me pain so deep
'Cause I still need to hear
Oh, I still need your pain
Keep feeding me love
