Nattvindens Gråt

Sleep Eternal

Nattvindens Gråt


Nocturnal mist falls down like the shroud of a ghost of centuries pass 
I walk alone through the monuments of remembrance 
This drizzle chills my bones as the sound of steps across my resting place 
Pondering the questions should the accuser finally come after me... 
Don't believe in saviour and now I know I never will 
Touched by indifference, touched by the hand of fate unseen 
Gardens of stone become a monument of my mortality, there is no heaven 
Hell has always been right here with me... 
Death is not the end, perhaps a gate to sleep eternal, I shall begin my journey to unknown 

Calmness enthralls me, I see the beauty of her soothing hands 
I sense the footfall, she enters and she takes takes me by my hand 
The darkness takes me, lead through in the misty veil of tears I am at peace now 
In love with the eternal rest to be... 

My chilling friend you come for me, unhallowed end the rest to be 
Calm as you come for me, I come undone right in your hand that touches me..
