Dark Tranquility 03-Hedon Lyrics

enter suicidal angels
how hungry we've become
like animals naked in shame
fed with the tongues of
apocalypse
that galloped down, disordered worlds behind

from word to a word i was led to a word
that spanned over cultures in rage
crimson masses, steeped in decadance
holding our tongues to the thirsty sun
so, is the future still open?
luxury tell me, tell me
then enter, hornet, from our hive-dark hearts
to draw down the end from within

we need not the horns
that emanate from our dying, haunted bodies
seven in number they are

nihilist, hedon
the priceless art of their lives
sorrow is a wing
laid atop their heads
skin-deep
we carve our immeasurable sorrow
in the fold of your shivering arms

how hungry we've become
like animals naked in shame
fed with the hooves of
apocalypse
that galloped down, disordered worlds behind

hedon (hedon)
hedon (hedon)
your children wild
hedon (hedon)
hedon (hedon)
and filled with death

[jupiter in our unforgiving eyes:
a pandemonium of bodies and gold
eager, as a part of your face]
and the sickness attached to your skin [(stone)]
as the wine-rush
charging from androgynous wombs
to open free the lid of pain
open free the vein

...hedon
rinsed in post-human shadows
a monument scorned by the teeth of time
stale-faced keeper of secrets
loaded with implosive fire
the w____ that carried the apostle
to the mating point on the graves of giants...

we look at you afraid
to see what we really are
we look at you afraid
to see what we really are
