Swallow the Sun
Rooms and Shadows
[Intro]
"I walked into the room of shadows
And closed the door behind me"
[Verse 1]
Silent walls remind me of my faults
Bleeding paintings of holy colours
Burnt letters and ghosts from the past
Floating through the heavy air
With the ghosts I left behind
Like the ashes I left behind
[Chorus]
From the cradle of this life
I bleed upon your holiness
The ones I left behind
My heart, withered with time
Dead from all this emptiness
The dark I came to find
[Verse 2]
Blind is the mirror that reflects this art
From poisoned daggers and lies it's been forged
To carry the weight of devil's wings
Is less than what I carry inside
I carry inside
[Chorus]
From the cradle of this life
I bleed upon your holiness
The ones I left behind
My heart, withered with time
Dead from all this emptiness
The dark I came to find
[Bridge 1]
When everything vanishes around you
And slowly slips through your fingers
And all you have left is pain
Would you do it again?
[Bridge 2]
Alone in this empty room of shadows
Alone, filled with memories of nothing
Would you do it again and remain the same?
[Chorus]
From the cradle of this life
I bleed upon your holiness
The ones I left behind
My heart, withered with time
Dead from all this emptiness
The dark I came to find
