Draconian The Solitude Lyrics

The Solitude Lyrics

[Lyrics by Susanne Arvidsson and Anders Jacobsson, Feb 2000]



While stars outspread the night-time watch

and wind through darkened treetops swirl;

I slowly bow my frozen features

in grief, in sadness and in woe...

in grief, in sadness and in woe.



In solitude forever! 



Forever I see, forever I hear, forever I smell,

forever I taste and forever I feel the solitude... 



No voice (no voice), no hand (no hand) of human source

can reach me (reach me) in this place...

though fallen (fallen) figures (figures) closely passes

and invites me (invites me) into somber dance...

this somber dance!



Cold and desolate my soul turns grey,

(and) alone I witness the neverending day. 



My wasted dreams lie silent and dead

within this darkened tears I shed...

this darkened tears I shed.



In solitude forever! 



So lonely I stand on this tortured cliff

hearing distant cosmic echoes calling;

beckons me to decline this withered beauty

and leave this lie to greet the night...

the night without an end.



The solitude... 



This solitary life...

Maybe I should just end it all...

Yes, I should just end it all!
