Dark Tranquillity - Lethe

Give me to drink of the fluid that disintegrates 

And lend me the sweet balm and blessing

Of forgetfulness, empty and strong 

Lethe

Oh, lethe!

Hold me near, unravel the stars

As I speed through the heavens, 

I speed through the night

For you are my blade and my rope

You are my Lethe

(You are my all)

In currents of cobalt you storm through my heart

To sever, to puncture the memories that burn

Let sweep through the arteries in sharp stabs of pain

Your talon-like fingers to kill me again

Steal me, invade me, and charge me again

(And again, and again, and again)

For I burn and I shudder

Burn with each movement of 

So, cleansed through a floodlight

I appear, renewed and reforged

Caressed by the sweet balm and blessing

Of forgetfulness, empty and strong

Lethe,

Hold me near, my one friend and guide 

As I drown through your fingers, 

Drown through your love

For you are the life that I hate

You are my, you are my...

Drag me down in passionate sighs

With the ocean above me and flames in my eyes

And grant my a life I can live 

Without...

Take me away...

Take me away...

From the life that I hate
