Day and Then the Shade Songtext
von Katatonia

I will rise
To dreams of freedom
And avow
To return the treason that came under your reign
The day and then the shade
I have slept
Inside the season that froze within my grasp

All my fears come into view
There must be an end soon
And every waking hour
Is part of the lie
All my fears come into view
There must be an end soon
And every waking hour
Is part of the lie


I will rise
Over glass cathedrals
And let go
With my eyes resting upon the nearing dark
The day and then the shade
I have slept
Within the reason that kept me so remote

Make a brand-new vow
In the heat of an evening
The darkness swarms
I was nothing, ever
But red like the sun
Dying down over the freeway
Is the brand-new sky
Over the mountain ridge

All my fears come into view
There must be an end soon
And every waking hour
Is part of the lie
All my fears come into view
There must be an end soon
And every waking hour
Is part of the lie


Make a brand-new vow
In the heat of an evening
The darkness swarms
I was nothing, ever
Red like the sun
Dying down over the freeway
Is the brand-new sky
Over the mountain ridge
