at the gates - the paradox lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
prodigious dreams, entangled and black
coiled in the corners of life
hallucinations, engraved in our bones
futile, monotonous lives

[pre+chorus 1]
the poison circle, eyes within eyes
how black our madness to be
spectral salvation, unfurling itself
through labyrinthian nights

[verse 2]
to carry these dead notes
as we stare into the abyss
our ruin, twisted and black
into the starving void

[pre+chorus 2]
dehumanization of our art and culture
parent of horrors to be
mankind is nothing but self+conscious flesh
the triumph of our own deceit

[chorus 1]
the structures thеy now crumble
the fevеred liturgy
black with the scars of madness
we hide within our crypts
[verse 3]
through mad winds of terror
dreams are disturbed
in pulse after heaven+wide pulse
older than darkness, colours unknown
within the pit of death

[pre+chorus 3]
heroic dreams now trampled
by figures in rust+coloured robes
a region, illuminated
into the nuclear dawn

[chorus 1]
the structures they now crumble
the fevered liturgy
black with the scars of madness
we hide within our crypts

[chorus 2]
and as all hope turns to black
into the dreamless night
as all hope turns to black
of pessimism and paradox

[bridge]
no hope – all black
no hope – all black
[chorus 2]
and as all hope turns to black
into the dreamless night
as all hope turns to black
of pessimism and paradox

[outro]
of pessimism and paradox
of pessimism and paradox
