"From Happiness To Dust" lyrics
"From Happiness To Dust"
It's getting late my old friend, it's time to go now
Say goodbye to all we had and set these torn sails away
You broke me down to pieces, like you always did
I'm ready to sleep now!
This tomb of my heart turned happiness to dust
Days changed to lifetimes of promises and rust
All friends around me, from happiness to dust
And I'm ready to go now where I won't be lost
Happiness to dust!
Have you come to take me home, last rays of the evening sun?
With the dream, to where I belong, to the meadows of unsung songs
I'm scarred for lifetimes in here, worn down in these battles
I'm ready to sleep now!
I dragged all these shadows behind me
Until they grew into a part of me, but I never wanted it to happen
All the steps I took, I took them for the happiness of others
But they all burned me down, burnt like an empty book
I unfolded my wings to their darkness
Stepped into all those rooms of shadows
Took those silver bullets to shield their hearts
But I'm too wounded now from these battles
Please, let me fall into a sleep of beauty for a while
It's getting late my old friend, it's time to go now
Say goodbye to all we had and set these torn sails away
Worn down in these battles
I'm ready to sleep now!
This tomb of my heart turned happiness to dust
Days changed to lifetimes of promises and rust
All friends around me, from happiness to dust
And I'm ready to go now where I won't be lost

Agalloch - "Not Unlike The Waves" Aurora swims in the ether
Emerald fire scars the night sky
Solstafir
Amber streams from Sol
Are not unlike the waves
Of the sea nor the endless horizon of ice
Solstafir
Aurora swims in the ether...
Insomnium - "While We Sleep" When your heart gives out and your love collapses
When the hand that never lets go is there no more
When you reap and sow only throe and resentment
When there's no one else but you to blame it for...
Alcest - "Sur L'Océan Couleur De Fer" Sur l'océan couleur de fer
Pleurait un choeur immense
Et ces longs cris dont la démence
Semble percer l'enfer
Et puis la mort, et le silence
Montant comme un mur noir
...Parfois au loin se laissait...
Soen - "Lucidity" In a purple room
Throne of needles
Sailing to the sun
Reaching higher
Sleeping on a bed
Of broken bottles
Passing night and day
Wasting hours
Rings on the water caressing your hair
Touch of a mother...
Antimatter - "The Third Arm" Set fire, set fire to home
Burn in your chair
Let fall, let fall your Rome
Limit your cares
Watch another chance to make things right
Crumble and fall by the wayside
Another chance to set things...
