Continuum - Opeth

Empty house and empty pockets

There’s an echo in the hall

I keep your picture in a locket

In the past, we had it all

But the Summer fades away

Rainy day tomorrow

In the company of dawning

In the presence of a friend

I was subject to a wanting

And unable to ascend

So I opened up my gate

It’s too late to wonder

«Det är bara en ny dag, inget särskilt har hänt»

Once there was a moment

Time was on my side

Rust and silk bestowment

Balanced on my pride

You are moving away from home

Escaping the monochrome

One after another

Striding along the road

Past the crest, you will be free

Laid to rest now, let it be

Honest promise to a degree

The edge too sharp for guarantees

Once there was a moment

Time was on my side

Rust and silk bestowment

Balanced on my pride

A part of our past is still there

Underneath your shoes

The memory’s stuck in your chest

The idle truth is up to you

The river of time flows on

Blind and ruthless

Life is so fragile, I know

And even if I heard

A yearning voice in your heart

Old routines always kept us apart

The river of time flows on

Blind and ruthless

The river of time flows on

Blind and ruthless

The river of time flows on

Blind and ruthless

The river of time flows on

Blind and ruthless
