The gloom descends
On these whispered bits of nothing
Kept alive
By the faintest light

A rush of blood
Into parts undeserving
I arrive
Shielded by the night

(I can sense her in the signals
Random waves all crashing down)

I can sense her in the signals
Random waves all crashing down
It was her behind the symbols
In that long abandoned town

Though the path she’s lead me on
Is never straight and narrow
With my past erased
I know I’m never ever going back

Those distorted sacred visions
Have been guiding me for years
When there’s no one ’round to listen
I give names to all my fears

And I seek them out
A pretty face for every shadow
For the ones I loved
I know I’m never ever going back

I beg of thee
Summon me
Relieve me of the flesh that burdens me
Corporeal
Substantial
I’m slowly being crushed by gravity

I beg of thee
Summon me
Relieve me of the lies of sanity
Succubus
Sorceress
Bring death to all that’s human left in me

Let this potion purge my history
The organic stench that’s choking me
Let the chaos free from symmetry
The orgasmic rise of liberty

Solo 1: Andersson

In the arms of slumber
I still sense your need
The eternal hunger
With which you infected me

And with Morpheus watching
We entwine once again
The sensation of falling
With the means to ascend

Like the spear of vengeance
And the star shaped cross
I still see the signs of
All that’s gone but never lost

Like the heavens denied us
We denied ourselves
But they’ll never divide us
I am yours till the end

If that black day is coming
And I’m struck by the light
I’d give all I have left for
A Whisp of the Atlantic

Let the curtains fall
And let the demons in
I can’t hear myself
Above their whispering
Let the world ignite
Obliterate this view
Let the cosmos burn
Until there’s only you

Burn!

And through the veil
I still sense your sorrow
There’s no escape
Not even in death
One day our bones
Will be withered and hollow
But we will still
Feel eternity’s breath

Just like a thought
Drawn to the elemental
The dream we shared
Will keep us alive
But I don’t know why

I’d like to paint
Your worries in color
I’d like to suck
Your juices all dry
And I would hope
That the essence I swallow
It would remain
So you’d always be mine

Just like a stream
Drawn to the lies of oceans
The plans we made
Will keep us alive
But I don’t know why

Solo 2: Andersson

With the force of nothing
And the weight of air
On the verge of touching
I will meet you there

And with Lucifer laughing
We ascend once again
And the forces of nature
They will all break and bend

Like the spear of vengeance
And the star shaped cross
I still see the signs of
All is gone but never lost

Like the heavens denied us
We denied ourselves
But they’ll never divide us
I am yours till the end

When that black day is coming
And I’m struck by the light
I’ll give all I have left for
A Whisp of the Atlantic

The gloom descends
On these whispered bits of nothing
We arrive
Shielded by the night
