Deliverance

Opeth

Floating on mist

Crept up the caverns of my brain

Received no warning

From nothing to a life code



Walk with me, you'll never leave

Wait to see your spirit free

Tell me how your heart's in need

As I drown you in the sea



Unwinding snares of distrust

Your wrist in my fast grip

Look me in the eye, I'm clear

This is your time



Face down beneath the waterline

Gazing into the deep



From love to death

In a time span of seconds

Oblivious to regret

Pushed into belief

In liquid cellophane

Gasping for air

Mercy in my eyes

Is the shade of the night



The piercing sounds you make

Soaring higher, higher now

And once left in my wake

Your memory's nothing but the scars on me



All over now

Forgotten why I needed this

Standing down

Disappear into the obscure

Resting days

Waiting for new disease

Biding time

Locked inside insanity



It always burns within

The downward spiral never ends

When driven into sin

Your salvation's found in a sinners deed



The devil guides the way

Tells me what to say

Pours himself inside

And snuffs the final light



Deliverance

Thrown back at me

Deliverance

Laughing at me
