Dark Tranquillity
The Grandest Accusation
[Verse 1]
What if you are an island of sorrow?
Then I'll be the raging sea
What if you are the reaching trees?
Then I'll be the storm that with fire rages
[Chorus]
The new loneliness, your name on the door
Just like a diagnose for a venomous disease
Man is the cemetery for unlived life
All for nought, the grand accusation
[Verse 2]
Your face is your name
Word and shield
Sharp as a curse
[Chorus]
Man is the cemetery for unlived life
All for nought, the grand accusation
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
You chose rejection over thoughts of insight
You take action from focus on intent
And brace for impact, not waiting for the fall
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
What cries here, cries inside
Man is the cemetery for unlived life
The grand accusation
[Verse 3]
What if you were a country of grief
With me the invading force?
What if you were to measure the hollow
That captivates and devours you?
[Chorus]
The new loneliness, your name on the door
Just like a diagnose for a venomous disease
Man is the cemetery for unlived life
All for nought
