Manic Aeon

Sirenia

Stranger...come inside 
Read my epitaph, deranged am I? 
Estranged one...haunting me 
Be my lover, I prithee 

Prophecies of death outside 
take the moonshine for a ride 
Haunting faces and staring eyes 
bring my mania into life 

Little stranger come inside 
Lay to rest what you still writhe 
We made a life of it somehow 
Seems like we've lost it now 

See you dance away 
all this bitter pain 
See you move in ways 
beyond our days 
In devotion I linger 
And with drained veins 
I falter again 

See you pass away 
in another day 
Hear you call my name 
yon another veil 
In devotion I've lingered 
In this world I've belonged 
for far too long 

Strangers haunt me down 
Stalking faces all around 
This strange voice at my door 
cede my reason like before 

Propechies of death inside 
Cede your words they cut like knives 
Somber wind that sweeps within 
This manic aeon is bound to be 

Little stranger stand me by 
If you prevail, then so can I 
Lay to rest the hurt you stand 
Only through death we'll mend
