Beyond Life’s Scenery - Sirenia

There’s a voice that speaks of time

There’s a growing void inside

There are doors in life that I can’t seem to find

There’s a fire in my dreams

Fading day by day it seems

There’s a narrow path beneath the fallen leaves

The years we tried to deny

Still haunt us now

There’s a garden deep within

Where all life is withering

There’s a fall and there’s a wall and there’s a sin

There are nails through my heart

All hope is torn apart

There are footsteps leading to my epitaph

The years we tried to deny

Still haunt us now

I see you stand forsaken

On a desolate and distant shore

You have been lost for so long

No one can ever take you back to how it was

Down, feeling down, falling down, sinking further down

Misery circles around

Wane, feel the pain, gone insane and this life’s to blame

Seems like it’s all in vain

Dark, the past was dark, the present’s dark, the future seems so dark

Alike our hearts

Deep is the sleep that life keeps beyond it’s scenery

What life sows, we’ll never reap

The years we tried to deny

Still haunt us now

The pain still burns deep inside

As life flows by
