Godhead`s Lament lyrics

Artist  : Opeth 
Song : Godhead`s Lament



 Send "Godhead`s Lament" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Marauder 
Staining the soil, midst of stillness 
Beloved fraternity to an end 
Red eyes probe the scene 
All the same 
Stilted for the beholder 
Depravity from the core 
Handcarved death in stoneladen aisles 
 
I hide the scars from my past 
Yet they sense my (mute) dirge 
This is when it all falls apart 
White hands grasping for straws 
 
Sly smile, poisoned glare behind 
Undisguised manmade nova 
Mute cry, don`t dare to tread 
Searing beams tracking you down 
 
Adoring what never has been 
Some will bring with them all they have seen 
 
Searching my way to perplexion 
The gleam of her eyes 
In that moment she knew 
 
Thought I could not leave this place 
On this imminent day 
As I`ve reached the final dawn 
To what`s gone astray 
What would they care if I did stay 
No-one would know 
What would they care if I did stay 
No-one should know 
 
Thought I could not leave this place 
On this imminent day 
As I`ve reached the final dawn 
To what`s gone astray 
What would they care if I did stay 
No-one would know 
What would they care if I did stay 
No-one should know 
 
Still brooding, soothing clam 
That rigid, twisted face 
Blank godhead, tear my name 
Lost virtue, frantic lust 
 
Sly smile, poisoned glare behind 
Undisguised manmade nova 
Mute cry, don`t dare to tread 
Searing beams tracking you down 
 
Adoring what never has been 
Some will bring with them all they have seen 
 
Searching my way to perplexion 
In crumbling faith I saw her 
Bearing her pain in the wilderness 
The gleam of her eyes 
In that moment she knew
