ABSENCE Lyrics
Distant Memories Of Life (2004 MCD)
1. Empty
2. Everlasting Moment
3. The Unborn Son
4. Distant Memories Of Life
1. Empty
[Music by Absence, Lyrics by Timo Lehtonen]
Snow covers the earth
It's winter once again
There's no rebirth
This time dark will reign
Nothing feels the same anymore
All colours faded away
Old thoughts returning to me
And it's hard to deny them
Towards the pitch-black sea
Drawn away from false haven
This festering wound
In my mind is taking over
Forgetting so soon
How it was to hold her
Distant memories of life
A faint, dying whisper
The icy water cast my reflection
I can't recognize myself
This is only a shell
'Cos I am empty inside
Nothing left to offer
Nothing left to say
It would be a torture
To live one more day
2. Everlasting Moment
[Music by Absence, Lyrics by Timo Lehtonen]
Someone once said
"Have hope and have no fear"
I had only one of them
Couldn't make it disappear
I tried to break the cycle
I tried to release myself
But now because of you
I'm tied to this hell
Stuck into this void
Here is no time
Every second feels like forever
Why don't you
Let me go
As we all
I'm alone
Take away my pain
This is not your struggle
All your efforts in vain
I've already lost this battle
A prison without escape
There's only one way out
But no one can hear
When I scream and shout
Can't you see I suffer
Take a look in my eye
And see my last request
I wish to die
What have I done to deserve fate like this?
What have I done to deserve fate like this... far worse than death?
Why don't you
Let me go
As we all
I'm alone
Take away my pain
This is not your struggle
All your efforts in vain
I've already lost this battle
On this everlasting moment I curse the day I was born
3. The Unborn Son
[Music by Absence, Lyrics by Timo Lehtonen]
This can't be true
All I see is ruins
I close my eyes
And hope this could be undone
The further I go
Less human I feel
This tragic scene
Is now reality
No one else did survive
No one else left alive
This innocent one
Doesn't even get a tomb
'Cos the unborn son
Dies into mother's womb
Eerie silence
Has filled the air
Something so precious
Is now forever lost
How can they be so blind
This way reaching the light
Priviledge of misunderstanding
Key to their anger never ending
4. Distant Memories Of Life
