Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Katatonia - Scarlet heavens ------------------------------------------ Only for the wind I lay myself down Feeling this scarlet scent of death Under ebony shades I dream of a child Dancing in heaven, dancing in heaven I must have seen this face before A monument of shallow sorrows Under ebony shades a child now dies But grievance wonīt regain Something grasp for my soul I think itīs God But my sorrow is dragging me down Through my sins Where is God in his heaven? Why am I a twisted mind? Now I see the light above But in darkness I must fall For my soul you pray at last Will I find my place? The stench of sorrow that pierces my flesh Can never be pure When the blackness overwhelms me Where shall I turn? To run away to never look back To run away from evil Only for the wind I lay myself down Feeling this scarlet scent of death Under ebony shades I dream of a child Dancing in heaven, dancing in heaven I must have seen this face before A monument of shallow sorrows Under ebony shades a child now dies But grievance wonīt regain Dancing in heaven
