Paradise Lost - Embers Fire [Icon 30 version]

A fallen time that's bygone
A crude elite that's from a distant zone
You'll turn a blind eye on what's brave
You don't know if it's the truth you told

Anger looks on the quiet dreaming
Seals the sense incandescent ones

Hold back desire for danger
A bet you'll lose you'll have no way to turn
I see the man who lives and breathes corruption
Into a circle that you call your own

Don't run away, from the pain, a claim that you deal with
A power game, from within, impossible for you to see this

Laid down the laws of deceit
The ones who cherish are the ones who'll go
Into the ashes of a tortured world
Only in mind's eye can you see a light

Harmony breaks, dark awakes, in old eyes - The trouble feel it
Here to stay, mark the way, improvise the judgement hearing

Anger looks on the quiet dreaming
Seals the sense incandescent ones

All remains of the glowing embers
Is a bleak cold irrelevance

Paradise Lost - True Belief [Icon 30 version]

Wretched will, host of pleasure surreal
Closed the room where the last is buried
Rise or fall at your master's request
You're unable to accept redemption
I don't know about a true belief here
With the lost it's the same as always

All I want is the same
All I want is a true belief

You can't wait to become a memory
With the weak it's the same as always
Stand confused lack of comprehension
Re-aroused by a thought of madness
And I know that the truth is always right
But it's time to search for lies
You're the one I try to save
But the blood spills from your veins

All I want is the same
All I want is a true belief

Call counting time 'til the end
Death's wicked smile never fails
The curse is cast and you've lost the past forever more
A candle burns here no more
I don't know about a century of life
When the love of generations die
I can see no good in taking your own life
When any moment death calls

All I want is the same
To be part of the game
All I want is a true belief

Paradise Lost - As I Die [Live]

As I die

Stare as eyes uphold me
And wait to see right through
And curse me – The love has crippled you

Shadows haunt the night
Burning my disguise

Reaping through the truth
Life becomes untrue

Sin the last diversion
My fate will be untouched
Dismissed now, the anger of a fool

Shadows haunt the night
Forgive me as I die

Taking a chance
And take what you gain
My soul is has no price
Total release is out of harms way
Until I can decide
You punish me, can’t you see, I’m not real
Tears are flowing free, passing by, as I die

Paradise Lost - Master Of Misrule

Wipe away the pouring rain

It’s too late to feel it again

What it takes to be born

What it takes when the last has fallen

What I see is depravity within us all

What it takes to be born

What it takes when the last has fallen

What is this, the despondency within us all

Maybe I’m already dead

Or maybe I’m still alive

Draining spirit, the soul and my body of pride

I can see through it all

It’s too late when the end is calling

Can’t relate to the stranger inside of you

Stranger inside of you

What it takes to be born

What it takes when the last has fallen

What I see is depravity within us all

There’s no sense in the truth

There’s no will when the world is falling

Hostility is aiming to demoralise

Paradise Lost - Another Desire

Leaving as the wind blows, I recall
I needed control…

Pain leaves harsh remains throughout the day
Pain leaves harsh remains throughout the day

Leaving as our lives close, I recall
I needed control…

Learning from the sorrow, I confess
I need some control…

Pain leaves harsh remains throughout the day
Pain leaves harsh remains throughout the day

Laughter lifts the spirit for a while
Life may seem of interest for a while

Learning from the sorrow…

Paradise Lost - Your Hand In Mine

Pay the deadly price
Lift the fallen prize
Told you soon will die
Sin that sails alight
Carry ungodly crimes
Travelling out of reach
Taking the weight of the night upon my back
You cannot believe the pain that I've seen

Crawling out of life my fire is strong
Can it be, I can't go on
And I'm hurt now, don't turn your back

Changing ways, events prolong
Hidden by the mist, insinuate what's gone
Insinuate what's gone...

Your hand in mine
We'll reach the sign of plains above us
Your hand in mine
Unholy times of pain relentless

Forced to watch not eagerly
Breaking hearts with words and all ecstasy
The ecstasy...

Your hand in mine
Reveal all life, uphold all others
Your hand in mine
Are you alive, with flames of sadness

Your hand in mine
We'll reach the sign of plains above us
Your hand in mine
Unholy times of pain relentless

Paradise Lost - Forever Failure

Understand procedure, understand war
Understand rules, regulations
I don’t understand sorry

You must feel frustration
‘Cause your mind feels such temptation
And your ways appear a total lack of faith

You may feel elation
At your body’s recreation
And the joy you need, restricted by one thought

Are you forever – Loss of purpose in a passive life
Are you forever – Pale, regarded as a waste of time

High times are courageous
But in truth they suit no purpose
Induced, reduced, unable and afraid

Can you feel rejection
And a lack of motivation
And the joy you need, restricted and delayed

Are you forever – Loss of purpose in a passive life
Are you forever – Pale, regarded as a waste of time

I don’t really know what sorry means, I’ve been sorry all my life
I’m sorry I was born, that’s what my mother told me
I don’t really know what sorry means
I’ve been sorry all my life

I don’t really know what sorry means

Paradise Lost - Embers Fire

A fallen time that's bygone
A crude elite that's from a distant zone
You'll turn a blind eye on what's brave
You don't know if it's the truth you told

Seals the sense incandescent ones

Hold back desire for danger
A bet you'll lose you'll have no way to turn
I see the man who lives and breathes corruption

Don't run away, from the pain, a claim that you deal with
A power game, from within, impossible for you to see this

Harmony breaks, dark awakes, in old eyes - The trouble feel it

Anger looks on the quiet dreaming

All remains of the glowing embers
Is a bleak cold irrelevance

Paradise Lost - Laid To Waste

Resent a sense of feeding, demanding bleeding
Unhinged a savage seeks a quest
Hollow heart's rapid beating
The pulse is high it's never ceasing
This cannot be a false pretense

As people arise I feel it

Stone cold, a passive disease, no chance of healing
You'll wonder if this is the end
The void submit to pass through
Fear the eyes staring at you
A time of unrivalled despair

As people arrive I feel their stare

You lived a life in chains
Your master could not save
You'll lose the grasp of gain
No method to your rage

You die a death each day
For some it seems to stay that way

Channels to feed your hate
Lying there for you to take
A place where fools attend
No prayers for you my friend

Paradise Lost - Say Just Words

You get high, with your destructive instinct
You get high, with your corrosive instinct
Where can I go, to escape your foul mind tricks
You’re trying it more, but you will never break me

‘Cause you presume the winner is you, but that’s not true, so say just words to me

Unreal what your hate’s providing, say just words to me
Your talk is always contradiction, say just words to me
You won’t feel the warmth of friends around you, say just words to me
Is it true that there is worth inside so say just words to me

Your designs, all the worse from power craving
Your desires, only where there’s fire burning
I’ll show you the way, a pleasure that’s for the taking
You’re trying it more, but you won’t get satisfaction

‘Cause you presume the winner is you, but that’s not true, so say just words to me

Unreal what your hate’s providing, say just words to me
Your talk is always contradiction, say just words to me
You won’t feel the warmth of friends around you, say just words to me
Is it true that there is worth inside so say just words to me

Paradise Lost - Fear

Quest for power to the born again
And pray for silence of the hurt again
Eradication of the tortured man
Configuration of the lonely bleeding

The Gods are praying for our souls again
The willing conquest of our souls again
The wicked rule the one who dares to cross
Accept the pain and simply count the losses

Feed my fear

Through the madness with a surge of strength
Turn a blind eye and say the rest
A close of fear destroys a weak defence
You can't survive the pain of constant grieving

Feed my fear

Obsession clings to all that holds no hope
The fluid making life will cease to flow
Eradication of the lonely man
Configuration of the tortured bleeding

Feed my fear

Paradise Lost - As I Die

As I die

Stare as eyes uphold me
And wait to see right through
And curse me - The love has crippled you

Shadows haunt the night
Burning my disguise

Reaping through the truth
Life becomes untrue

Sin the last diversion
My fate will be untouched
Dismissed now, the anger of a fool

Shadows haunt the night
Forgive me as I die

Taking a chance
And take what you gain
My soul is has no price
Total release is out of harms way
Until I can decide
You punish me, can't you see, I'm not real
Tears are flowing free, passing by, as I die

Paradise Lost - Eternal

Why can't we hear
The time must come for us to leave here
Emotion has withered away
Our burnt out love has decayed

Obsessed to leave the Earth
Tragedy has overrun since birth

Now our righteous fathers weep
As we greet eternal sleep
Are we born to pass away?

Cry at all that remains
"Chosen Words" fail to sustain
The wisdom of powers heard
In dismal thoughts seemingly absurd

Now as hope and glory dies
We'll scream at our demise
Are we lost forever more?

Paradise Lost - The Last Time

It's a struggle with a failure's frown
And it crashes in front of me
I see the clouds divide
Will you stay or try to leave

The time you're looking at the door
And you're thinking to walk right through
I want to ignore
I only wish that it passes soon

Heart's beating...

I raise a sunken smile
As I serve the ones who served
What can I achieve
As you steal the air I breathe

It's a cruel misfortune
Forbidding us to see
When stories may collide
It's a sad state of mind

Heart's beating...
Heart's beating for the last time

Heart's beating for the last time
Heart's beating, it is a state of mind
Heart's beating for the last time
Heart's beating, the peace you cannot find

Paradise Lost - Sweetness

You have a history of holding back
A certain sweetness that I lack
Sensitive 'til the day of the final strike
Hatred coming on from greater heights

Won't you stay away
I'll pass away a different day
Won't you stay away
Don't hold it against me

Looking down on a rogue this lonely frame
It's predictable the killing game
The sickness knows not what feels right
You've gotta hold on to what feels right

Won't you stay away
I'll pass away a different day
Won't you stay away
Together it's impossible

I see blood on the robe

Cold hearts will still haunt you
