Cathedral - Alchemist Of Sorrows lyrics

Alchemist of sorrow

I am Midas in reverse, my gold has turned to lead

all lovers I've forsaken are dancing with the dead

lust and desire burning in hellfire

great god below me, my future you have read

Euphoria found it's grave with the love you gave

all magic died with my dreams of an Autumn bride

now she's gone away, days are dark eternal

golden shores become grey 'cos I'm always yours

Alchemist of sorrow

Robed in black behind my back, deaths conscience in control

slimy green fingers molest deep into my soul

lost in satire possessed by nothing higher

from the tallest mountain, I gaze into depths so low

Euphoria found it's grave with the love we made

all magic died with my dreams of an autumn bride

now she's gone away, days are dark eternal

golden shores become grey 'cos I'm always yours

Alchemist of sorrow

Back to the womb, my future doomed inside this tomb of pain

before my eyes had opened, your world already insane

magician of sadness, god of unholy madness

left the doors wide open, to live this torture again

Wanton grief, takes the place of eternal peace

dark and cold, memories I forever hold

summer moments saved under violet oceans

beneath life's floor, rest my dreams forever more
