01. Nous Sommes La Guerre

Nous sommes la guerre
Nous sommes le contraire
Nous sommes l'opposition
Nous attendons le porteur de lumière

I can feel the shadows enter, risin' from the earth
Now that everyone is giving me the widest berth
I have nightly visits, sentient absence watchin' me
Nurturin' the itch where other worlds are scratchin' me

When I heard the voices from below
Gently tellin' me where I should go
Speakin' demon tongues in stereo
Face the undetermined, let it show
Let it show

So could you hold my fire?
Would you arise and meet me where the sparks ignite?
Nothing's new
It's just the fear that
Something's comin' after you

It's the brimstone sparkling, touching me at parts unseen
Just a sharp reminder prodding at what could have been
Would you share my burden, help me lay this ghost to rest?
If you disagree then please pretend it's for the best

Every trial that we must undergo
Trapped between the current and the flow
Melodies above the hellish drone
Sound the unrefined and let it go

So could you hold my fire?
Would you arise and meet me where the sparks ignite?
Nothing's new
It's just the fear that
Something's comin' after you

Hold my fire
Would you arise and meet me where the sparks ignite?
Nothing's new
It's just the fear that
Something's comin' after you

Nous sommes la guerre
Nous sommes le contraire
Nous sommes l'opposition
Nous attendons le porteur de lumière

02. Övergivenheten

Sweetness like a whisper
Sharpness, dragon claws
If you could be my sister
If you could trace my paws
I long for unforgiveness
The words still never read
I seek the undetermined
The fluids never bled

So won't you bleed for me?
Bleed for me

If you can stand
The silence, it drags you in
You're on your own and now it spits you out
The wind and the rain keeps on shutting you down again
You've been waiting for so long
If you can stand
Now you've been hanging on for so long
If you can stand...

The scent of pure damnation
The force that pulls you through
You've had enough sensations
And now it's only you

So would you bleed for me?

If you can stand
The silence, it drags you in
You're on your own and now it spits you out
The wind and the rain keeps on shutting you down again
You've been waiting for so long
If you can stand
Now you've been hanging on for so long
If you can stand...

If you can stand
The silence, it drags you in
You're on your own and now it spits you out
The wind and the rain keeps on shutting you down again
You've been waiting for so long
If you can stand
Now you've been hanging on for so long
If you can stand...
