Dark Tranquillity - Lethe [Live] Lyrics

You give me the drink of the fluid
That disintegrates
And lend me the sweet balm and blessing
Of forgetfulness, empty and strong

Lethe
Oh, Lethe

Hold me near
Unravel the stars
As I speed through the heavens
Speed through the night
You are my blade and my rope
You are my

You are my Lethe
You are my all

In currents of cobalt
You storm through my heart
To sever, to puncture
The memories that burn

Sweep through the arteries
In sharp stabs of pain
Talon like fingers
To kill me again

In currents of cobalt
You storm through my heart
Sever and puncture
The memories that burn

Your talon like fingers
To kill me again
Steal me, invade me
And charge me again

For I burn and I shudder
Burn with each movement of

So, cleansed through a floodlight
I appear renewed and reformed
Caressed by the sweet balm and blessing
Of forgetfulness, empty and strong

Lethe
Oh, Lethe

Hold me near
My one friend and guide
As I drown through your fingers
Drown through your love
For you are the life that I hate

Drag me down
In passionate sighs
With the ocean above me
And flames in my eyes
Grant me a life I can live without

Take me away
Take me away
From the life that I live
