Katatonia - The Act Of DarkeningLyrics

So dark Once an amusement park Troubled whispers sound On a mute merry-go-round So cold Once a playground of gold Caved in long ago And then poisoned with the snow Oceans of time Broken patterns align Hearts washed upon the isle It carries your name Like radiance in the rain The wailing sirens alarm Old memories hang on and gravitate by weights of sorrow Through cracks and wounds our pain reflected in a thousand mirrors It is time for deeds to take the shape of vows and codes of promise The time to let our minds speak silently in the act of darkening Out of reach and gone from view Now light is one step behind you On the other side of the soul The void resolves one final role Collapse into absence
