Shades Of Deep Green - Insomnium

In shrouding veil of thickening dusk

In the caress of darkening woods

There winds my path, narrow and fading

Let this twilight linger long upon me

Moon and stars take over when sun has fled

And bring her scent to me

Bring her scent to me

May the blowing of winds cease

And all birds fall silent from singing

May the dreary waters lay still

And hands of time stop turning

So in forms of evening mist

I can feel her slender grace

In shades of deep green

I can drown in her tender eyes

Now that her light has gone away

All this searching has led astray

These turns are filled with grieving

These moments with loss

What a cruel world

Left for me to roam alone

What a scornful faith

Took my light away

Neither the glittering dew on moors

Nor the the whispering wind in dales

But only these shadows of green

Can remind me of her

Can remind me of her

May the blowing of winds cease

And all birds fall silent from singing

May the dreary waters lay still

And hands of time stop turning

So in forms of evening mist

I can feel her slender grace

In shades of deep green

I can drown in her tender eyes

What a cruel world

Left for me to roam alone

What a scornful faith

Took my light away

What a cruel world

Left for me to roam alone

What a scornful faith

Took my light away
