The Pain Is Still Mine lyrics
Song information
Artist: Ihsahn Album: The Adversary
Lyrics
The word is easy Dripping sweet and cocky from the tongue Vaguely describing the taste of blood
A distant cry arise From the fathomless well That is my soul I can not hear the words So I throw my heart in Like a coin And wish that it would sink forever
A purpose, a sacrifice Or merely temptation? Is my solitude anything but a perversion Of my vanity?
I never cared for this weak inclination This paranoid tendency To flock And in between all the noise All the guilt A silence would carry my spirit away From diminishing obsessions Away from fools and poisonous flies
The birth of a dreamer
Behold, an angel of vengeance A lion A sword of fire Alas, the burden of my heart Is violence undone Pain unfulfilled Silence
When I finally cut deep Into the flesh of guilt The un-naked body of shame And the veins of repentance Open wide Sending rivers of blood Into my mouth The pain is still mine
