Deliverance

Opeth

Floating on mist 
Crept up the caverns of my brain 
Receiving 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 face 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 
Oblvious 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 is 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 
Looked inside insanity 

It always burns within 
The downward spiral never ends 
When driven into sin 
Your salvation's found in a sinner's deed 

The devil guides the day 
Tells me what to say 
Pours himself inside 
And snuffs the final light 

Deliverance 
Thrown back at me 

Deliverance 
Laughing at me
