When did they come and where did they go
My thoughts, pure and white like snow?
Here comes the long and dark night of my soul
And now I’m all alone
There is a deep dark hole now where my love once used to be
She set me free
This is the long and dark night of my soul
Yes, now I’m all alone
So I’ve erased myself, replaced my mind, it’s a clean slate
All I’ve felt and everyone I’ve ever known is gone
I feel the need to leave, just run straight into nowhere
There’s nothing left in this town but self-loathing
You think you know, think you can see who I am?
Don’t colour my sleeves with your narrow mind
I’m more than my hair or the clothes that I wear
I feel the need for a new way of thinking
So I surrender myself to me
When did they come and where did they go
My thoughts, pure and white like snow?
Here comes the long and dark night of my soul
And now I’m all alone
There’s a deep dark hole now where my love once used to be
She set me free
This is the long and dark night of my soul
Yes, now I’m all alone
(guitar solo: David Zackrisson)
Lost in the approaching night
Traces of summer, still warm and breezy
As the sun sets over the forest
The woods are dark, cold and damp
I’m alone in here, and though I can’t feel the presence of man
I feel something staring
I don’t the animals will harm me
But I know, they know I’m here
To them I am the predator
It’s man they’ve learned to fear
Suddenly a gun shot, then another
Someone is aiming at me
I throw myself behind a big old pine
My heart is beating like crazy
I can sense The Hunter, he’s behind me
I’m a deer in his eyes
I start to run and fear him fire once more
Maybe I’m too far away |
