Sonata Ártica - Unia
Sonata Ártica - Unia
Diving in the seas of sin, without knowing where lies the bottom
Idle moments spawned you idle people, no morality, no soul.
You...
I need you...less and less...
Every day feeds this moral decay
Yet I have grown to love you even more
I will take - what you have - for me now, if it's not too late
If you like, I will leave; I will not miss the last train again
Me...
I need you...less and less...
Every day leads us farther away...

Hiding, for the moonlight eats the day Drowned me in a wishing well...

8. My Dream's But A Drop Of Fuel For A Nightmare
Shakespeare and company
My painted face, I'm a clown, refuse to kill the kitten scratching me...
and I'm laughing while my dream turns into a nightmare,
fade away, I'm asleep, I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling... - awake
not too deep...
You know, if you believe the dreams, the nightly visions,
The walls of night have left me scarred worlds entwined
the broken glass I stepped on, twice. then you also fear your shadow, paranoia, part two...
the ardent spirits' rusty edge, decapitate me...
All the good things in my life dwell in my mind
I can't sleep, fear darkness Took a wrong lane, every day, I hear myself say
go through the motions, did I fall asleep? Sickening's this feeling, my life, my hopes, my dream's
I'm bowling, the old nine pin, a sign unwanted... but a drop of fuel for a nightmare
Now I'm a target, I'm hot and frozen, they all turn out the same
stormy rain I'm stuck in an elevator My destiny, my flame
wet from the muddy water, believing is control?
breathing hot air, winds convey me... no.
the painting comes alive,
bababababaaaa... takes me inside a world without a name, a place beyond
the number talks and I cry in my own Hell.... compare
bababababaaaa...
Wide awake, I'm asleep, see a friend as a ghost Believe the dreams that let you sleep
the broken glass you need to sweep
I'm skating with a seal, The book you read; if you found an explanation
the tarantula, the fly, the broken ring to help you in any way,
the dusty little flea you are your own prison.
an ugly giant, a disappointed child
Woke up today,
here comes a rabid snake the good and the bad and the ugly dreams are gone
the broken violin, a wild ballet ...jumped off the carousel
9. The Harvest
The weight of days on me.... The Word of grave old danger -- Love,
I am done. It's all I'm after, oh
I am done...
The corn is burning under my feet
The words like circles and Bring me to recovery
I'm waiting for someone to catch my fall give it to me, I'm after tranquillity
in the deepest void of all I somehow lost my line of sight
Before I cast the final die...
Haven't seen you in weeks Once planted plastic grapes,
No clouds in the sky to rain me a drop The harvest of a lifetime,
loving touch I need Real bad wine.
and I am killing time by the lake
diving off the cliff, many times The sum of false virginity
scarring myself, colliding and my lost integrity
on the lake bed so dry.... The Word of grave old danger -- Love,
For you I'm after, oh
The world's without virginity I am done
And souls have no integrity
The Word of grave old danger -Love, The world without virginity
It's all I'm after, oh A soul with no integrity
I am done... The Word of grave old danger -- Love,
save me, save me, save me, take me away, away from this time, back where lies my home
Where is my home...
Where is my home...
Where is my home...
I follow the moon to find a path away from the scorching sun...
I follow the stars to my abode, it's burning...
I seize the moment to hear a story no ones telling anymore
the worlds forgotten, the words forbidden.
11. Fly With The Black Swan
One day I know you will sell your soul
Once I got caught in an avalanche, And trade all you are for silver and gold...
I must have died, You'll get an odd advice from a stranger
When a Black Swan flew to the rescue and cried Take it, from me, with love...
An offer I could not refuse, now I'm working on the other
side. Once I was in love with someone like you, Engaged to be
whole,
Well, I flew with the bird then, we flew all night got torn out of your memories, covered in snow...
I got to see my prison from a thousand feet high
buy me a drink, and I tell you I need to find a way to pass on the gift I once received
'bout the Black Swan I'm ready to face it...
I'll take my chances, if I am
Must keep those black wings folded, until the time is right, returning to the deep
to find the one whom I can steal dark snow grave, so be it
a soul from, to buy more time I-should-not-rest-now...but forever!
Must keep my secrets untold, until the wrongs are right, I'll feed... - the ferryman's creed.
the only one I could deceive, with an empty promise for my lost soul...
I buy my time; need you to fly on the Black Swan
Must keep those black wings folded, until the darkest
The date is set, we all must face it night
Door to door, seeking salvation a soul from you to buy me some time
--- I must, for die I wish not
My hopes stay afloat when you give in to the pouring boiling water on a solid frozen flower
Black nailed finger of the creator
Silver lining, sharp and so cold
anger fades into a vague smile I take a bow, thank for this opportunity
--- you see, I'm ready to do it for everyone But I've given the last ride for all those close to kin
I stabbed you in the back, who will save you now...
Must keep those black wings folded, until the time is right,
Don't worry, I've done this before to find the one whom I can steal
It'll hurt like hell and leave you sore a soul from, to buy more time
No use escaping, hold on to your ticket of gold Must keep my secrets untold, until the wrongs are right,
and close your eyes... the only one I could deceive,
I served my time, need you to fly with the Black Swan
12. Good Enough Is Good Enough
It was not hard - to choose all the words that I should
put in your mouth
in my own play of shadows
Between lines, word for word, honey.
It doesn't matter
if you're left or to the right.
Don't try to hide behind the cause
for what you fight.
There's no communication,
no one to take the blame.
The cries of every nation
have fallen on deaf ears again.
