Nocturnal Tranquility
Your music is my remedy
Beautiful, haunting melodies
Are all I need to set me free
Enchanting me so cleverly
Once more, I shed my skin
Revealing that which lies within
Spirals, through my head spin
When sanity is spread too thin
Internal war begins
Believe me, I would die to win
Inferno born of sin
Confront it with the widest grin
Exhumed after each battle
Blooming in the shadows
Rooted deep, not shallow
Embracing the unhallowed
Awakening at dusk
To a tempest between my temples
Shaking with each gust
I feel my foundations tremble
My soul collecting dust
An empty husk I resemble
Into the abyss thrust
The darkness so warm and gentle
Here I make my bed
With umbral blanketing
Where spectral spirits tread
I slumber gracefully
Beautiful, haunting melodies
Are all I need to set me free
Enchanting me so cleverly
Once more, I shed my skin
Revealing that which lies within
Spirals, through my head spin
When sanity is spread too thin
Internal war begins
Believe me, I would die to win
Inferno born of sin
Confront it with the widest grin
Exhumed after each battle
Blooming in the shadows
Rooted deep, not shallow
Embracing the unhallowed
Awakening at dusk
To a tempest between my temples
Shaking with each gust
I feel my foundations tremble
My soul collecting dust
An empty husk I resemble
Into the abyss thrust
The darkness so warm and gentle
Here I make my bed
With umbral blanketing
Where spectral spirits tread
I slumber gracefully
