《The Promise of Agony》歌词

[00:00:00] The Promise of Agony - Dark Angel (暗黑天使)

[00:02:09] You tell me what will become of us

[00:02:12] Are the lines so drawn and the stage so set

[00:02:14] That as we age what reamins is burdened sufferance

[00:02:16] My mortality looms in its visage is doom

[00:02:18] And it's speaking to me alone

[00:02:19] The years will unfold but what is the use

[00:02:21] In solitude I'm left to atone

[00:02:23] The sins of my past are returning to gnaw at my core

[00:02:26] The scars I have left and those that have been left on me

[00:02:30] My purpose in life is it unfair to assume I have one

[00:02:34] I'm not fooling myself what now awaits is a nightmarish end

[00:02:38] What I'm saying do you understand

[00:02:39] Do you know what it's like to feel inadequate

[00:02:41] And the future ahead has no place for you

[00:02:43] As if you ever thought it did

[00:02:45] Alone in my shell if I come out I'll die

[00:02:47] I don't want to escape though I should

[00:02:49] No just leave me alone I don't want your help

[00:02:51] Yeah if you could ease my pain you would

[00:02:53] No you don't even know me

[00:02:54] And your words of comfort fall upon deaf and frightened ears

[00:02:57] I lament my bitter fate lachrymation upon examining my fears

[00:03:00] I've built a fortress around my soul impregnable the door

[00:03:02] I refuse to admit you to my netherworld

[00:03:04] You're correct I've absolved my self control

[00:03:05] This spiraled course depression has me on

[00:03:08] AGONY

[00:03:09] I'M A STUDY IN DESPAIR DOMINEERED BY THE PROMISE OF AGONY

[00:03:12] AND THE HAPPINESS IS BOUND AND THE HOPELESSNESS IS FOUND

[00:03:15] I'M IN AGONY

[00:03:16] CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND DESPONDENCY COMMANDS MY AGONY

[00:03:20] And I'm waiting to die alone

[00:03:37] As I'm drowning in a sea of abused visions and shattered dreams

[00:03:40] A chilling descent into a phobic hell

[00:03:42] Insanity's blade performs it's correctional surgery

[00:03:43] Impending doom in this blackened room I can give this all away

[00:03:48] It's all so easy to capitulate Nothing is making me stay

[00:03:52] Retreating within and hiding behind my wall

[00:03:55] Dealing without there's no escape from this moribund state

[00:03:59] Awaiting deep sleep we don't care if I don't wake

[00:04:02] In darkness' hands though terrified I feel safe

[00:04:06] I don't fit into the scheme of things

[00:04:08] These years as an outcast are quickly wearing thin

[00:04:10] My carefree days are a thing of the past

[00:04:12] And I welcome the fact that I'm coming to an end

[00:04:14] Melancholy my bride I devote unto thee

[00:04:16] My breath my mind and my soul

[00:04:18] As silence washes over me I've never been so tired so cold

[00:04:21] Confusion seizes unto me

[00:04:23] Manacled and beaten chained up by it's frozen vice

[00:04:25] This is killing me but my mind is set and I'm too weak to fight

[00:04:28] Have you any idea what it's like to want to die

[00:04:30] Then you will know from where I speak

[00:04:32] This winter in my soul

[00:04:33] This winter in my soul

[00:04:36] AGONY

[00:04:38] I'M A STUDY IN DESPAIR DOMINEERED BY THE PROMISE OF AGONY

[00:04:40] AND THE HAPPINESS IS BOUND AND THE HOPELESSNESS IS FOUND

[00:04:44] I'M IN AGONY

[00:04:44] CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND DESPONDENCY COMMANDS MY AGONY

[00:04:48] And I want to be left alone

[00:05:19] Yet again I have no answers

[00:05:21] The confusion of my fate takes it's toll

[00:05:23] Symbolically speaking what's another life

[00:05:25] That lists ending itself as its one and only goal

[00:05:27] I've examined my options and I see nothing in my sight

[00:05:29] Is there an avenue I've yet to explore

[00:05:31] As of now I'm decided I have nothing to live for

[00:05:33] Defeated alone yet you laugh at the state I'm in

[00:05:38] I can't help what I am but you think this is all in my head

[00:05:43] I'm not asking for help but I want you to understand

[00:05:45] That I'm going away you guess if I'm coming back

[00:05:48] You wish I had a will to live

[00:05:50] This condition I'm in didn't happen overnight

[00:05:52] I've hated myself for an eternity

[00:05:53] Now I finally feel that I'm doing something right

[00:05:55] As darkness descends I behold the Candlemass

[00:05:58] I seek intimacy with death

[00:05:59] Again you're correct these feelings will pass

[00:06:01] When my memory is all you have left

[00:06:03] My life has metamorphosed

[00:06:04] Into a marriage of the twisted and macabre

[00:06:06] I'm sitting here now feeling the effects of my words

[00:06:08] Trying to see a reason why I should go on

[00:06:10] I have to wonder do I still believe in God

[00:06:12] 'Cause God no longer believes in me

[00:06:14] I lay myself down for my final peace

[00:06:15] I welcome Death my spirit is free

[00:06:17] AGONY

[00:06:19] I'M A STUDY IN DESPAIR DOMINEERED BY THE PROMISE OF AGONY

[00:06:22] AND THE HAPPINESS IS BOUND AND THE HOPELESSNESS IS FOUND

[00:06:24] I'M IN AGONY

[00:06:26] CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND DESPONDENCY COMMANDS MY AGONY

[00:06:30] And I'm pleading to die alone
