Funeral
Red Moon Architect Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tears of torment trickle down her features
Like a window to the heart they tell a story

Sinister awakening of ail demons inside
Twines a nest where there′s no escape from
A skewed mind plays a distorted play
And delusion turns into obsession
Voices urge to run away
And leave all behind
Black painted shadows haunt exiled

Hidden from the sun
Entombed by the loved one
A sleepless soul will finally have its funeral

Reality changes into another world




Where no one walks beside
Under a big tree lays a coffin with broken dreams inside
