In Flames - Moonshield lyrics

Tried of dull ages, I walk the same ground,

collecting the tragedies still

Hollow ambitions in a hollow mind

carried my cross to the hill

And how I lust for the dance and the fire

deep of the nectarine sunset to drink

spill me the wind and its fire

to steal of the colors - I'm the moonshield

Shattered hope became my guide

and grief and pain my friends

a brother pact in blood-ink penned

declare my silent end

Naked and dying under worlds of silent stone

reaching for the moonshield that once upon us shone

Naked and dying under worlds of silent stone

reaching for the moonshield that once upon us shone

And how I lust for the dance and the fire

deep of the nectarine sunset to drink

spill me the wind and its fire

to steal of the colors

I am... I am... I am...

I'm the moonshield...
