lyrics

demon next to me
could you ever tell me why?
every time i try to move just like you
i fall behind

demon next to me
tell me can i touch the sky?
if i have to fly to keep up with you
i will try

if i touch the sun, on a summer day
will a chain of lightning strike me down?
what will be found, on the hard ground
if i fail again?
if i touch the sun on a summer day
will a chain of lightning strike me down
before i hear the sound?

demon next to me
can i make it through another year?
sometimes it seems to me it’s hopeless
this cross i have to bear

demon next to me
tell me brother can you hear?
whispers in the wind again
tender eyes and tears

i touch the sun on a summer day
but a chain of lightning strikes me down
and what i found on the cold ground
is i fail again..
i touch the sun on a summer day
but a chain of lightning strikes me down
before i hear the sound

open your eyes and take a look around
you won’t find what you’re looking for
only what needs to be found

when the summer lightning’s over
will you be here when it’s over?
when the summer lightning’s over
yeah, i’ll be here when it’s over
and dream again…

i’ll touch the sun on a summer day
if a chain of lightning strikes me down
i won’t be found on the cold ground
i won’t fail again
i’ll touch the sun on a summer day
as a chain of lightning strikes you down
before you hear the sound yeah

and i’ll take it
while you give it away
and i’ll make it
while you throw it down

Masterful use of acoustic passages and synth stuff. This is definitely my favorite black metal-dungeon synth kinda album I've found recently. Each track flows into the next so well, I cannot recommend it enough. Perri
