lirik lagu at the gates - the paradox
[verse 1]
prodigious dreams, entangled and black
coiled in the corners of life
hallucinations, engraved in our bones
futile, monotonous lives
[pre~chorus 1]
the poison circle, eyes within eyes
how black our madness to be
spectral salvation, unfurling itself
through labyrinthian nights
[verse 2]
to carry these dead notes
as we stare into the abyss
our ruin, twisted and black
into the starving void
[pre~chorus 2]
dehumanization of our art and culture
parent of horrors to be
mankind is nothing but self~conscious flesh
the triumph of our own deceit
[chorus 1]
the structures thеy now crumble
the fevеred liturgy
black with the scars of madness
we hide within our crypts
[verse 3]
through mad winds of terror
dreams are disturbed
in pulse after heaven~wide pulse
older than darkness, colours unknown
within the pit of death
[pre~chorus 3]
heroic dreams now trampled
by figures in rust~coloured robes
a region, illuminated
into the nuclear dawn
[chorus 1]
the structures they now crumble
the fevered liturgy
black with the scars of madness
we hide within our crypts
[chorus 2]
and as all hope turns to black
into the dreamless night
as all hope turns to black
of pessimism and paradox
[bridge]
no hope – all black
no hope – all black
[chorus 2]
and as all hope turns to black
into the dreamless night
as all hope turns to black
of pessimism and paradox
[outro]
of pessimism and paradox
of pessimism and paradox
