In Flames - Lunar Strain lyrics

rate me

For there is a purpose and reason

Beyond all human apprehension

The shrieking silence in the blackness of space

For there is a knowledge more complex

Than life on this planet

A knowledge in tune with the progress of stars

Lunar strain

All across the milky way

Life suffers defeat

Life that once was treasured

What once was nothing

Has blossomed into form

Once it was I that was nothing

But now they say I will die

All across the galaxy

Life suffers defeat

Lunar strain

From nothingness to reality

As we see it

From nothingness to life

My dismal tears of anguish

Bleed into one with the songs of my heaven

Loneliness is pain

Emptiness is power, loneliness is pain

Serenity is might

Yet we shall be honoured

In the starforsaken night

Astral strain

All around my silent moon

Life suffers defeat

Astral strain

For there is a purpose and reason

Beyond all human apprehension

The shrieking silence in the blackness of space
