Paradise Lost lyrics
Album: Gothic [1994]
| Gothic (mix) | |
|
Denying our restlessness
Frustrations tension eludes
The past was clean
Where thoughts were mild
The present day horrors alive
Slowly passing timeless horrors
Lives within all fear
The mourning in my tears
Drown all the past
We lived beneath these years
Awaiting for the call
For all life to expire
Passive to this day
To infinity we'll fall
The light is dim before us
Shadows appear and fall
A barrage of savage ways
Only the darkness can filter through
Awaiting for the call
For all life to expire
Passive to this day
To infinity we'll fall
Lives within all fear
The mourning in my tears
Drown all the past
We lived beneath these years

| Rotting Misery (Doom Dub) | |
|
Unleashed upon man
Their poisoning brains
An empty grasp - a threat to all those sane.
The daggers poised
For shallow minds
Unheard laughs...
Disrupting all mankind
This rotting misery
(Chorus)
The beggars are all gathered
No others rule supreme...
Rotting misery
Clouded realities
Brought before us
Their pointless lives
As all their faith is lost
Morbid existence
Of these poor souls
Now must die to exist no more
(Chorus)
|
| Breeding Fear (Demolition Dub) | |
|
Staring down into the depths
Subconscious has taken my life
Breathing this foul and dank air
Eyes cannot penetrate the light
No room to panic or move
I pray my death will come soon.
My sorrows are breeding on my fear.
The tombs of 1000 lie near,
Soon to diminish am I?
Lying here, minutes from my death
The nausea breeds on my fear
Calling to the victims of fate
The dead cannot answer my calls.
My body falls to the depths
And darkness has engraved my mind...
No visions or solution
Gagged for air, deeper below I sink...

| The Painless (mix) | |
|
Locked inside this peaceful tomb
Entwined on seas of endless bliss
The painless...
Strength is released
The horror passes through our eyes
Diversions cast upon our souls
The meek shall inherit our fears
Stray from this tranquil place
Guarded by all fear
Submit now to this curse
In out plight for existence
Reach the sky not falling down
Sunlight shines in heaven
Stray from this tranquil place
|
| Eternal | |

Why can't we hear
The time must come for us to leave here
Emotion has withered away
Out 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
[Now our righteous fathers weep
As we greet eternal sleep
Are we born to pass away]
|
| Falling Forever | |
|
Sickened by the feelings within
Laughing at my pain
Forget the lies, live the reality
Eager
Waiting for a chance to indulge
In this "sinful perversion"
I have grown weak now
God may forgive and save
Our "precious souls"
Lift the curse from us
[Forget the lies, live the reality]
Embrace all the distorted thoughts
Indoctrinating sins
In this our earth the love is lost
As disruption begins
[Embrace all the distorted thoughts
Indoctrinating sins
In this our earth the love is lost
As disruption begins]
Madness
As the soils of the earth
Greet our cries
Falling forever
|
| Silent | |
|
After all wars
We lie, as shelter falls
The world is but hell
A place darkened out by time
Submit to the fall
Live in peace for years
Turn back the hands of time
Light shines before
As lives are torn
Morals slow decline
We'll live in cold fear
Until we lay dead
Silent our pleas
Search for the end
|
| The Painless | |
|
Locked inside this peaceful tomb
Entwined on seas of endless bliss
The painless...
Strength is released
The horror passes through our eyes
Diversions cast upon our souls
The meek shall inherit our fears
Stray from this tranquil place
Guarded by all fear
Submit now to this curse
In out plight for existence
Reach the sky not falling down
Sunlight shines in heaven
Stray from this tranquil place
