(Dedicated to Hannah Stjarnvind)(Music: Hagel, Edlund)(Lyrics: Edlund)
Alone I sit, I wonder why
You dream of love and so do I
But in your sleep you cannot see
This pain which is always haunting me
What I need I'll never feel
This world is for me unreal
So I drink to darkness with a candle lit
And through the whole night alone I sit
The sleeping beauty
She stops the bleeding
She stops the bleeding in my soul
She is fresh air in this sticking world
The more I drink, the more I see
That suicide could be the key
To the place called paradise
Where pain not dwells, not hate nor lies
But if I look beyond all this
I reckon something I would surely miss
Because in my dreams I rule my life
And the sleeping beauty is my wife
The sleeping beauty
She stops the bleeding
She stops the bleeding in my dreams
She is fresh air in this sticking world
Forever Burning Flames
(Music: Ekstrand, Petersson)
(Lyrics: Edlund)
Rip out my heart and put it on the table
Read my life in the blood
I am waiting to answer your suffering pleas
As deathly silence does curtail my remains
In the river of tears runs blood from my eyes
Yet another morning is emptying my veins
Alone I seek, a tiny groove I stalk
In the river Lethe I slowly drown
Empty screams
To fill a new world
A place I've missed
Bodies are courses where maggots are turning
Souls are flames that are forever burning
Raging flames cover my corpse
Far from identity and rememberance
But the shades of my mind are still carrying
Colours of most beautiful kind
Around the cenotaph I am scattered
I am in the air you breathe
Let us forget me for awhile
