Lyrics A Romance of Thorns - Angellore

A Romance of Thorns

In paradisum
Deducant te angeli
In tuo adventu
Suscipiant te martyres
Maybe I fell into despair
I saw the gates behind the mountain’s glare
I gazed at the realms of deep unknown
A crescent moon above the silent snow
My dreams, as pure as one can be
Ebb of my thoughts, stream under a frozen sea
Powerless feelings imprisoned in myself
Maybe I fell into despair
A derelict soul in a body accurst
Pitiful, weak creature
I’m lost in a lightless, desolate place
Left alone dreaming, forever dreaming
Through the gloom I wander
Trying to deny a cold and hopeless reality
Alas, my anger is useless
And so is my own existence
I see myself walking endlessly
Amongst naked stones and ghastly trees
A dismal sun is a poor guide, as my path
Won’t end until the night
When the sullen red sun rises
I put my head between my hands and pour
Remorseful tears
Over the wreck that is now my life
Repentance comes but it’s always too late
