Eels - Jeannie’s Diary lyrics

It's an age of nightmares and dreams

While we are barely children of the age

Floating on waves of cold etherial streams

A tributary to the symphony of decay

On a place beside the neverending line of time

I hear deathtones flow, emerge with ancient time

Black antique chambers and ghastly mysteries

Imprisons our mind and soul through centuries

We have existed since the dawn of the world

And until the last star fall from heaven

We focus on the darkness that shall become

When the earth bleeds by the seven

Deadly sins beyond forgiveness

Beneath the lamb shall hide the serpent

We all follow a revelation plan

Into the eternal wasteland

When the earth is swallowed by vulcannic fire

That's when we rise

When all the seas are filled with hatred's desire

That's when we rise

In phantasmagorial dreams

In the headstones shadow crawling in my knees

Remembering the gallow then all vanished like a dream

A wide open grave, dark naked soul

The soul is now chained, as in evil I boil
