Opeth - Wreath lyrics

Falling inside again

This nightmare always the same

Still never enough

Halting at the brink of discovery

Moving into the darkness

Leaking inside to cover up

Dragging me down and under

Entangled and undone at once

Old memories

I'm not in need but wish to know

What are the tragedies

The history behind the walls

Pacing further down

Familiar children's laughter

Dissonant and out of time

And their eyes are dead

Watching myself in a pool of water

Wearing the mask of a ghost

Smeared all across my skin

Rotten earth and insects

Endless night

Always preserving the calm

Movement behind

Bleeding animals in a field of fire

There is no absolution

Death is but a fairytale

They are mere visions

They are afraid of me

Clear insight

A smoke is rising nearby

Dust covering my coat

Blend together to spell my name

Pale, covered me with sweat

There are no words left

Sole provider of death

Distorted faith in myself

Human harvest burning

Blackest pages turning

Twisted perception come true

Captured in dreams connected

Staring right back

Spiritual decay - Still seeking

Frozen in time

Mourn this departure - All watching

Calling me back

Closure to bleak matters - I'm leaving

End of a search

Coming of morning

Calling me back

Closure to bleak matters - I'm leaving

End of a search

Coming of morning - Returning
