Darkest Dream
Magenta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There are voices inside my head
Try to remember
What they did and what they said
That turned me so tender

I was emotionally detached
With bitterness attached
I saw nothing but black holes
A life without goal

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

You lead me through the rain
Try to remember
I dried till I was drained
Come on be my defender
You are my soul
I am your corpse
Bringer of light
Bringer of dark forces

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Send me to heaven x2

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven

Heaven x4
You want to send me to heaven





Send me to heaven x2
