H.I.M. (His Infernal Majesty) - The Path Lyrics

There is no turning back from this unending path of mine
Serpentine and black, it stands before my eyes
To hell and back, you will lead me once more
It's all I have as I stumble in and out of grace

I walk through the gardens of dying light
And cross all the rivers deep and dark as the night
Searching for a reason why time would've passed us by

With every step I take the less I know myself
And every vow I break on my way towards your heart
Countless times I've prayed for forgiveness but gods just laugh at my face
And this path remains leading me into solitudes arms

I see through the darkness my way back home
The journey seems endless but I'll carry on
The shadows will rise and they will fall and our night drowns in dawn

Amidst all the tears there's a smile
That all angels greet with an envious song
One look into strangers eyes and I know where I belong

I walk through the gardens of dying light
And cross all the rivers deep and dark as the night
Searching for a reason why time would've passed us by

I see through the darkness my way back home
The journey seems endless but I'll carry on
The shadows will rise and
They will fall and our night drowns in dawn
The shadows, they rise and they fall
And our night drowns in dawn
