Testo The Harrowing Years - Insomnium
Testo della canzone The Harrowing Years (Insomnium), tratta dall'album Across The Dark
This I have learnt:
World forces all of us down
The fleeing years bend our backs
Love but smears our hearts
Here I now lie still like a broken bow
Soul sullen and rigid with the will to die
Sighing after the days long since gone
Cursing every step on this ill-fated trail
In vain - In vain I try to forget (To forget)
In vain - In vain I try to forgive (To forgive)
Black bird from evening sky
Raven from heaths of night
Come and take my cares
Carry away the grief
Bereave me of my woes
Rend off these earthly throes
Fly them to deepest lakes
To the starlit shores
This I have learnt:
Even the sweetest wine turns sour
We work our fingers to the bone
All our efforts of no avail
Here we all are but troubled guests
On darkling earth
Lost echoes that pine away
Into the dusk
Nothing more than the wind to rely on
Nothing more than the death
To comfort us in the end
In vain - In vain I try to forget (To forget)
In vain - In vain I try to forgive (To forgive)
Black bird from evening sky
Raven from heaths of night
Come and take my cares
Carry away the grief
Bereave me of my woes
Rend off these earthly throes
Fly them to deepest lakes
To the starlit shores
This I have heard:
All ends in serene sleep
All these sorrows are washed away
As we lapse into the night
As we lapse into night
But I know it's a lie
I know it's a lie (It's a lie)
