36 Crazyfists Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The great unknown of forbidden shadows
She crawl back on the outside
This my beauty is just a cruel game
Memories begin to wandered of vanish

Her castle is a night witch carved from stone
She vanish at nightmares
Beloved my children gone in the light

We are the confused in your hands
Tracing the night of broken knife
Create and servant of the end
That yours will be the hand that guides my path

Forever gone I fear
Start light in your darkest of lies
Tomorrow but I reality of dream
Disintegrates the soul and made of gold
Presence I am vanish, vanish all yours

Twilight burns, burns and decay
Freedom the rest of lies
There is nothing my sentiments

Forever gone I fear
Start light in your darkest of lies
Tomorrow but I reality of dream
Disintegrates the soul and made of gold
Presence I am vanish, vanish all yours

Presence I am vanish, vanish all yours, vanish of lies
Following my hatred, follow your flowers

I am the rest of cry
I sleep but do not live
I hurt but do not forget
I see but do not know
I pray but I've lost my heart

We are the confused in your hands
Tracing the night of broken knife
Create and servant of the end
That yours will be the hand that guides my path

Forever gone I fear
Start light in your darkest of lies
Tomorrow but I reality of dream
Disintegrates the soul and made of gold
Presence I am vanish, vanish all yours

I am the rest of cry
I sleep but do not live
I hurt but do not forget
I see but do not know
I pray but I've lost my heart





Presence I am vanish, vanish all yours, vanish of lies
Following my hatred, follow your flowers
