Anathema : Resonance
Lyrics
1. SCARS OF THE OLD STREAM
(Instrumental)
2. EVERWAKE
Somniferous whisperings of scarlet fields
Sleep calling me and my dreams are wondrous
My reality abandoned (I traverse afar)
Not a care if I never wake
3. J'AI FAIT UNE PROMESSE
The way that the willow bows over the stream
Like a mourner crying for their loved one
Reminds me of last fall
When on one knee, I pledged myself to you
4. ALONE
I gave you my soul
You left me dying
(freezing in the cold wind that screams through
the silence, in the barren wastes of my heart)
Within the walls
Of my mind..... alone
The winter serenade
Fell silent to me
5. FAR AWAY (ACOUSTIC)
One common, subterranean destination
One life, another day
A vestal child unveiled by temptation
Innocence slips away
Far away
Been down so long
Too deep the water that I tread
Sometimes I feel myself going under
Sometimes I envy the dead
6. ETERNITY (PART 2)
Destiny, Infinity, Eternity
7. ETERNITY (PART 3) (ACOUSTIC)
So little time
Your crystal eyes gaze into mine
A burning flame
Forever dreaing, dreaming a lie
Trapped inside internal eyes
Caressed by innocence, a sanctuary for your mind
Born alone beneath pale sardonic skies
One love, one life, one sorrow
I won't reproach myself this time
A condemned mman, granted a sweet reprieve
A turn of fate, a genial twist of the knife
Undying affection for life
8. BETTER OFF DEAD [Bad Religion cover]
I'm sorry about the sun
How could I know that you would burn?
And I'm sorry about the moon
How could I know that you'd disapprove
And I'll never make the same mistake
The next time I create the universe
I'll make sure we communicate at length
Oh yeah
But until then, better off dead
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
Better off dead, yeah better than this
Take it away, 'cause there's nothing to miss
I'm sorry about the world
How could I know you'd take it so bad?
And I'll never make the same mistake
So if you're looking for a patsy
Why not try the entire human race
Just to play it safe
But until then, better off dead
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
Better off dead, yeah better than this
Take it away, 'cause there's nothing to miss
Better off dead, yeah better off dead
Why don't you try pushing daisies instead?
Better off dead, yeah better off dead
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
And I'll never make the same mistake,
The next time I create the universe
I'll make sure you participate
Oh yeah
And I'll never make the same mistake
The next time I create the universe
I'll make sure you participate
Just in case
9. ONE OF THE FEW [Pink Floyd cover]
When you're to land on your feet
What do you do to make ends meet?
teach
Make them mad, make them sad, make them add two and two
Make them me, make them you, make them do what you want them to
Make them laugh, make them cry, make them lie down and die
10. INNER SILENCE
When the silence beckons,
And the day draws to a close,
When the light of your life sighs,
And love dies in your eyes,
Only then will I realise,
What you mean to me.
11. GOODBYE CRUEL WORLD [Pink Floyd cover]
Goodbye, cruel world,
I'm leaving you today.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
Goodbye all you people,
There's nothing you can say,
To make me change my mind.
Goodbye.
12. DESTINY
I tried to murder the lonely,
Contemplate our mortality.
Into infinity,
Frozen memory
Wipe the tears from yesterday,
A time for change, take the pain away.
Angel, my destiny,
Can you feel me?
13. THE SILENT ENIGMA (ORCHESTRAL)
In dreamland grandeur
I held mesmerised peace
Innocence breathed again
A mind's escape
Leave walls of tears behind
Ethereal vision haunting still...
The solitude left me blind
Beneath an open sky
Sibilant cries of youth dying
Enslave me with grief
A moonlit era, oblivion's twilight kiss
Wishes in lament
Happiness in a broken vision
Utopia still unborn...
Tormented echoes of a fallen Eden
I longed for her beauty
Yet from dust, she returned
The dream, an enigma... silent
14. ANGELICA (LIVE BUDAPEST 1997)
Where are you tonight?
Wild flower in starlit heaven
Still enchanted in flight
Obsessions lament to freedom
A timeless word, the meanings changed
But I'm still burning in your flames,
Incessant, lustral mmasquerade,
Unengaged, dilit love didn't taste the same
And I still wonder if you ever wonder the same
And I still wonder...
15. HORSES
[Instrumental]
