....It haunts my dreams.....FORGIVING VOICEStand aside now no one will survive can't tell you how I know
In some time I will change my name and lay low
In the light you can see me walk down by the way
The one who did this to us well he got away
Keep it quiet here I will not tolerate your noise
This is where I listen for the forgiving voice

Can't tell you how I know.
In some time, I will change
My name and lay low
In the light you can see me
Walk down by the way.
The one who did this to us,
AmbitionsHear my thin voice
Hear my words fall down
See my ambitions fade out
Had so much better times
At night walking on the tracks
Changed my perspective
Idle hands with wounds and cracks
Ashen[Special digibook edition bonus track]
Won't forgive your ways
I strip my mind with all but scorn
The scales of madness mesmerize
Voice your dead prayer
At Lastall my presence died today i breathe to memories
guess i'm closing down torn and tired of my heart's sound
what's worth to me when life's not around
i will sleep tonight to sleep tomorrow if i sleep at last
a promise has been broken the essence of
love in rust one in a million i'm the one turning pale
any colours to express apart from bleak is hard
and where you are my thoughts are in guilt so forget me forget me not

The moon gave me flowers
For funerals to come
12 shapes bow before her
I am still one of them
12 morbid ways to die
Her beauty scares me
BraveKatatonia
Brave
If you didn't know
all the moments
When I lose myself
I would tell the world
I'm catching flies by now
BuildingsThink
Of the days when I had too much
Of the things we found
Resistance died down
Fell on frozen soil
Bleed a little for a different day
Going deeper to come away
Burn The RemembranceOld light and new colours your picture hangs in the night
Is this the right time to set one free and go away
In the emptiness behind you I will walk about
Surely you'll miss me but long live the doubt
What will replace us
What will be our memory of this time
Second hand impressions
Chromethe walls are painted
different every second
my eyes are of chrome
it is television
can't let go of my leg
it's itching and bleeding
layer by layer
Clean Todayall the white lights falling
the blue lights are falling
night is warm
came down with a promise
I have my best shirt on
I lower myself now
it is a way to forget
Code Against The CodeMoney growing on a tree
The cold you have come to find
Money going through the wire
The cold you have come to find
You once were the one who had it
The code against the code
Cold WaysI can't do what you do
I'm just able to tear it down yeah
Stay in a cold minute of sleep
See the world
Right through the ether
Twisting names inside of me
Electric atmosphere to be
ComplicityI have no name my face a blur
I speak only to answer them
White noise becomes a voice
I hear it constantly
I dare not break the circuit
I rest only for a short time
This time I promise I won't give up
DayKatatonia
Day
Grey park look the same
All the days are pale
I never thought it would rain this way
I should be knowing that, it used to be me
Day and Then the ShadeI will rise
To dreams of freedom
And avow
To return the treason that came under your reign
Te day and the the shade
I have slept
Inside the season that froze within my grasp
Dead LettersVexation
Internal void
My dreams
Are getting darker and darker
Dim my lights
Time is frail
You shut my mind
DeliberationVisions come
Visions come
In a sickroom bed
Ther's something left to learn
Pass them on
Let it show
Let the rich meet death
Confront our own concern
Departer
The blinding white
So far behind I am
And running
Over idle ground
This evening
I kept my word
Did you
Displaced[Lyrics: Renkse]
Do you have water in your car
I might get thirsty along the way
Are you sure it isn't very far
Are we getting there today
And is it hard
And complicated
DispossessionIt is to see a traitor go free
It is to feel a filter in me
It is to leave the lights that I saw
It is to ask: is it easy to go?
In this dead hour
Here with you
Seconds are worthless
Dissolving Bonds[Lyrics: Nystrom]
And here you are
So much time did you waste from times before
So shut down your sky
Bow down, lights out & die
And now you go
The cold chill cracks, a positive self-detach
DistrustRunning my way towards oblivion
Inside my head electric insomnia
In your mind I'm fed with distrust
Heading for anything better than this
I want to be forgotten
I want you to forgive
How I am losing all this
EndtimeNow fall into a vacant sphere
Pierced by the darkness
They called it death
And surrounded me with sleep
They lost the Earth in fire
Waved it into a sea
This is not what you saw
EvidenceKatatonia - Evidence
I hold my breath and check the time
One minute no collapse
If you only knew what I would do for you
One thirty breathing lapse
We're going in my voice is thin
When I tell you to remember
FightersOne man down
Five more left to go
Five more left to go
Look I told you so
We never stop
If we said that
We'll back it up
For sure
First PrayerIn the prayer
Can't seem to find the right words
But we stretchour dead arms
For salvation
The fundation
And the chemical need
Discordance put a veil
Over my creed
FollowerHurts to see
My incapacity
Shame, idle mind
No,you have changed me
My mouth is shut
Stupidity have shut my mouth
Shame, idle mind
For My Demonswell i'm here
and summer is gone i hear
so pray for me
as i now leave your town
when did i say this
i will never leave
i can't recall this
moment in my life
ForsakerRage from a distant
The name unfamiliar
Spikes reach the heart
Time set for rewind
The dark will rise
Abandon your freedom
Give up the right to find the true self
Fracturedknew i would fall if i tried
so i held back for a while
you pushed me so hard, i had to go
i tried to be strong, then i failed
i would like to say this
just in case you didn't know
Funeral WeddingOpen life beneath
Her glory stains the hearse
Procession watch the rain
Mourns the opposite birth
For the wind hopes to die
Far away from home
Same death serves all/Spirits of what will be
Gateways Of BereavementI stand as I cry
Mourning in the silent rain
Death will light my burden
Endless is my sorrow
Gateways so dark
All these years of dying
Gone are dreams of velvet voices
I am you, we were one
Ghost Of The SunThe thin darkness here
Not strong enough to make you appear
(Strong enough to make you appear)
I once changed my style
They said hello I said goodbye
(They said hello I said goodbye)
I once played a role
I was out there marketing my soul
Gone a dead start in my head
and the day's been laid
the things i really want
always torn from my heart
you never saw the way
how i wanted you to stay
and now when you're gone
i'm on my own
Help Me DisappearTo completely dissolve,
What method is used
I cannot sleep,
My hands are bruised
There's a hole in the wall,
Torn up anew
One dead eye,
Colour of you
HypnoneYou will never rest
Until the stars burn out
My day is done
I love the sound of no one coming by
Tomb beneath the trees
The name unsung
The darkness in the cracks
I Am Nothingtonight i'm nothing
it doesn't matter where i've been
delay of reaction is
the unseen movie of this life
i remember one of my friends
telling me to go ahead
I TranspireI can't say that I am free
as long as they return
if I had a way out of here
would I then return?
they seldom will speak, no
they only breathe, slow
do they know that I'm afraid, so afraid
idle blood You there
Bringer of my despair
You are stagnation of hope and will
O you personify loss and remorse
And you hide until my fears reappear
[Chorus:]
The love for life once bright
In Silence EnshrinedIn Silence Enshrined through Ages
A Dying beauty on a journey far
Fading Roses enchants the Garden
Sleeping, dreaming of my Bride
In Quiescence faces borders the Path
On the Shore of No Hope I am stranded
Fading Roses enchants my Grave
In The WhiteAre you in
Or are you out
The words are stones
In my mouth
Hush little baby
Don't you cry
Truth comes down
Strikes me in the eye
IncreaseVapor
As thin as it gets
I stare right through
The severe sickness in this room
Not mine
It comes from you
Soul cold
InheritanceOur inconvenient burden
It could be lifted off of us
If we gave up to finally let go of the free
Will that we were given
Our graves above the timberline
Our names chalked
Treasure or wealth no longer found
Inside the City of GlassUnder lights that never go out
We drive
And focus on the change
You become my face as I replace it
With the mirrors and the glass
And the houses that we pass
We drive all night
JulyYou come clean
Waves collide now
Defenseless numb arms
And no voice of reason
So how come you invited me too
You knew I wanted you
You glide above
LeadersLeaders come
Stand in line
Reveal your true self & conform
I sold my song
Crossed the borderline
I found something I'd never adjust to
Come here
LeechSo solitary
You have been
Your time starts to fade
Distorted sky
And you find me
Revolve inside
My blood is yours too
That's what you say
LetheanHow long
Is the pattern going to speak for you
How far can your voice reach
Your song below the night
From my view
I can see you
Shudder where you are standing
In the vision
Liberation Sold are the eyes I have
And cold is the wait for nothing
In dark I write my name in a long line
How is it possible for you to try?
It's coming true
I've changed my name but I will pass it on to you
March 4left with spring alone
I withdraw from this
I lived so differently
it wasn't good enough
I was with you alone
winter was gone
MurderПадший идол,
Повешенный человек...
Великие ветра
Крутят мельницу...
Дальше к просторам
Пределов не существует...
Пятидневная боль
My TwinThe neck and then the chain
The head is hung in shame
I thought that you had grown
That you would carry on
But now that I have gone
What else has been withdrawn
You used to be like my twin
Nephilim[Chorus:]
Loving mother
He has come
To take your son
Listen
How he strides the earth
When only animals are awake
NerveHigh white ways
Shattered by rain
Pale dead walls
Nerves pushed in pain
Red light faced
Mirrors of the dead
People in the archways
Eyes full of lead
New NightThe pledge
I've forgotten this time
I am so uncertain
That my heart will go on
My beloved one
If you were here you'd find
That I'm not feeling well
But that will have to go on
Nightmares by the seabeware the bottled thoughts of angry young men
secret compartments hide all of the skeletons
little girl wants to make her home with him
in the middle of the shore she wonders
"don't know what you asked for"
"don't know what you asked for"
No Devotioni've turned down all devotion
i'm so far from being here
can't bring forth more power
than i have already done
tonight i'm trying
and i see all dread in me
No Good Can Come Of Thisthis is no good way out
but it's a challenge or so I see it
death's head upon my wall
afield lies nothing but disorder
no good can come of this
whatsoever I can tell you
no good will ever come of this
Nowhereatmosphere decays in me i fail to convict my useless days
the lack of substance circle of downfall
exitless ways into pale wake tired attempts to crush the design
it's like nowhere i cannot sell the plight that is mine
everything is real but i'm not here i've lost my strength somewhere
nowhere used to care about weather used to plan the days that came
used to try and watch you used to know my name
someone said remember but i can't remember anything at all
O How I Enjoy The Light[Written by Will Oldham]
It's us I liken to a covey
A polar bear has breached a pup
The palace walls are
Strewn with tapestries
And the window panes are
Splintered and shattered
Onward Into BattleIn the still eclipse
Every light is a heartbeat
In the spring
Where I watch
Palace Of FrostGarden, Still and Cold
Leaves Once Green Turned To Gold
Wrapped In Fields, Eternal Sky
I Bid Farewell, I Die...
Birds of The Night, Sing My Songs
Ocean of Tears, Leads So Long
Solitude of My Spirit, I Am Free
Pale FlagOur burden fell down,
once shared but waged war on my mind.
So told my love farewell now.
No loyalty to find.
When you vanish over the skies.
I am forsaken beneath the ground I lie.
Was banished from this hurtful life.
Passing BirdShe's got black hair
And she has got a black dress
She is pretending
That her life is a mess
But I cannot rest
With so many worries
I can't lie down
RainroomWe saw it all pass by and you went by
And I can't control anything
When you said that life can't be what you want
And I really want everything
When I pray
When I believe
ResidualRid my mind of residual thoughts
Until knowledge will arrive
They closed my eyes
And cold stars would align
In the city the lights are many
But I can't find it amusing anymore
I watch the night unfold and vanish
Stood on the highway
Right Into the BlissBy a black road
Giving a brief smile
Something's on the way
Forgotten for a while
And you try to speak this
Without a voice down by a black road
We try to forget and try to make it through
RustedRush through the rusted veins
Illuminate the voice of one
So I have lied
So I'm aware about
The consequence
I heard the warning
About the little compromise
Distorted views you had
Saw You DrownAs through your shattered eyes
It all came together
And your heart cries
Weeping through the weather
Another way to change your mind
I'm weaker than they say
To leave this all behind
The only way to stay
Scarlet Heavensonly for the wind I lay myself down
feeling this scarlet scent of death
under ebony shades I dream of a child
dancing in heaven, dancing in heaven
I must have seen this face before
a monument of shallow sorrows
under ebony shades a child now dies
SecondSun has lost
Mountains fell
What took away our anchor
Snow in the old sky
Escape is a long dead end
We need to rise higher
Shades Of Emerald FieldsDancing through the silent waves
The shimmering moonlight
Over lost angels remains
Whispering through gloomy halls
Beneath the gentle soft caress
Of dreaming shadows
SistereYou stay out here in the snow
All night beside the road
But there's a fire so keep warm
I'm leaving soon
It's bleak
And inside you can't hold your thoughts together
The slumber within a dreamer of stars
In a house of ash and scars
SleeperO my your fever's high
I lay my hands upon you
O my haven't you heard
The truth is untrue
Now I'm breathing
I could not breathe until you did
I'm one second after you
Soil's SongFalse
The dream is so far
Come and take the consequence
Few things are as certain
Winter state
Oppressive wait
Evacuate
Sold HeartWhen my heart stops
Will my wings unfold
Did you know that I had no one but you?
When my eyes close
Will your blood turn older?
Did you know that I had no one but you?
In the snow veil
StalemateWhat I am supposed to be
In my life
In your life
In our life
In this life
I shut the door and closed my sight
At the end of the day
It's not the way that it used to be
Strainedend
sometimes a start for others
end
i don't know the word beginning
sometimes fear is power
like when i lost control
this time it has to come to an end
SulfurI'm drawing back time
to feel things once again
as when I had found them
I saw you grow older
saw myself grow older too
but not as much as you
if I only knew
Sweet NurseO my sweet nurse
Pull the curtain aside for a while
So that I can for once have
The sun in my eye
You smile and say
It's a fine day
O my sweet nurse
Tear gasWhy have you put so many things into my eyes
(that I can't see clear)
Who's paid you for telling me what I'm worth
(and run in fear)
It has been for me a strain to see already
(what have you done)
The rising noise
The sharpened smells
Teargaswhy have you put so many things into my eyes
that I can't see clear
who's paid you for telling me what I'm worth
and run in fear
it has been for me a strain to see already
what have you done
the rising noise
The Act Of DarkeningSo dark
Once an amusement park
Troubled whispers sound
On a mute merry-go-round
So cold
Once a playground of gold
Caved in long ago
The Future Of Speechmy prospects have become less promising
i find it hard to believe in anything
seems I lost my world and so I lost my faith
and I can't go back to where I've been
a brand new day
it can't get worse
hear myself say
The ItchMovement
Subdued back then
So quiet now
Subsequent
Systematic violence
The great cold distance
The itch
The Longest YearIn the nights of old I always wished
In the longest year that had me down
And I would freeze if you ever asked me
That was my way
[x2]
Confront the guilt and try to overcome
Do not go away
The Northern SilenceCaptured Within A Shroud of Autumn
All Is Silent as I Depart The Earth
Only The Sound of A Storm So Far
Drawing Nearer To Catch My Soul
My Life Is Ended, Another Has Begun
Descent Forever To Serve The Dark
Aurora Borelia Shining Bright
The Nothern SilenceCaptured within a shroud of autumn
All is silent as I depart the earth
Only the sound of a storm so far
Drawing nearer to catch my soul
My life is ended, another has begun
Descent forever to serve the dark
Aurora borelia shining bright
The One You Are Looking For Is Not HereThis breaking vow
Rest so near my tongue
Anchor on the cloud
Shade upon the sun
You took my word for it
The vanishing of doubt
Will unfold my empty space
The PartingIn the weak light
I saw you becoming the lie
Taking it all for granted
Like freedom
It's something you'll never have
Forget what's said
And hear me sing to you
The Promise of DeceitEvening
Coming through the crowd
I hold my head high
Straining
Out here dissonance surrounds
I hold my head high
I see the wings behind your back
The Racing HeartWhite sun
Spring of wealth
Come for a good time
It's not what I have
Vibrate
Life on the line
My racing heart
Your vacant mind
Tomb Of InsomniaFalling, Crying, Sleeping, through the air
with the evil, shadows, moving towards the sky!
Tomb spirits marching in the fields of eternal....life
crying like a God....a terrified...God!!
Falling, crying, sleeping in the air
with the evil, shadows, moving towards the sky!
Tonight's Musicwho could call my name without regretting
who could see beyond this my darkness
and for once save their own prayers
who could mirror down just a little
of their sun
how could this go so very wrong
that I must depend on darkness
Undo YouWith life's four-way stop
The tinges in your shadow drop
Fate pulls you down for the count
With broken promises to amount
Time seal our ways
To the heart of our hiding place
When all our lifelines have been crossed
UnfurlAt city centre 9 pm
Just like you wrote
And I try to think about
Snow coming in
Just like before
I will be on stand-by
Releasing the vapour
VakarenDu är vakaren
Dina tankar går bredvid
Hand i hand med ljuset
Att se klart
Att aldrig vara sen
Jag hör ditt namn i bruset
Kylans port
Dörren utan lås
Wait Outsideburn the bridges behind me
Can't tell you the truth so I lie
I'm waving at someone behind you
I filter my eyes when I look at the sky
Time to lose
Tell them everything
Say I lost my light
Walking By a WireI could not breath against the wall
The clash of light against the floor
They held me up against the wall
Too young to be ignored
Standing by a building
Leaks out information
Passive death of freedom gets me
We Must Bury Youwe had you down on your knees
we were kicking you in the head
we tried to hang you from the trees
we didn't stop until you were dead
we must bury you
we must bury you
we must bury you so deep
Wide Awake in QuietusWhy are we wide awake and here
Tell me now
I'm at a loss
How do we..?
Why do we..?
I hear
Show me how
Determine us
Will I arriveBypassed the day I can hear them coming
They walk round my door and speak of their coming
My trial awaits got nowhere to run
My only words how soon you have come
And I think about what you told me
When I was about to join in
Without GodHuman Birds Watch the Sky
Where Dark formations sail
Infecting the area of God
JHVA ELOHIM METH
I am God creator of Life
I am God Enchanter of Death
Death - that now marks you
