elvenking - the misfortune of virtue lyrics

Loading...

blind human beings
loading on other’s shoulders the fruit of their fears
the holes in their souls are filled by thick delusions
shallow -ssumptions and words rubbed in the face
of the ones who cannot bear the weight
of this mess – the distress – and the anguish

they claim they’ve chosen light over the dark
darkness my beauty, the only comfort of my life

i am the one, my soul cast in amber
forever one, adrift on a crimson sea
from the ashes all stains mend and disappear
i am the one, in a sweet deathly slumber
far from the sun, in the shade of a fallen tree
misanthropic, the way of the pagan lear

god grant me the gift of tolerance
for i alone cannot bear the burden of communion
i’m not willing to sharpen the perception they all have of me

i despise the ones that seek the truth in set phrases all written in vain
as with a previously owned dress they try – to fit in the words
they retrace others’ lives, absorb their light
and rebuild their own frail peace of mind
they -ssail and censure – with a haughty and blatant smile

their arrogance, audacity, mistrust
there is no place for me, i let all of you go

i am the one, my soul cast in amber
forever one, adrift on a crimson sea
from the ashes all stains mend and disappear
i am the one, in a sweet deathly slumber
far from the sun, in the shade of a fallen tree
misanthropic, the way of the pagan lear

answers don’t grow on a tree fed by fatuous conjectures
there are more things in death than in any of their unconditional relishing lies
in a world that has gone beyond, leave your memories behind, undertaker
and rest, forever endangered, forever alone

i am the one, my soul cast in amber
forever one, adrift on a crimson sea
from the ashes all stains mend and disappear
i am the one, in a sweet deathly slumber
far from the sun, in the shade of a fallen tree
misanthropic, the way of the pagan lear

who does not comprehend can leave
the gathering is now closed, the invocation ended
the misfortune of virtue
