Lyrics At the Gate - Hord

At the Gate

Here, here is my open heart
Here, come and read
My story, my innerside
Inner child, Inner adolescent
Inner man, Inner old man
Left behind
All the sunless sunrise
Waved around
All the dazzling sight of nights
The sunless sunrise
The dazzling sight of nights
Sketches of my ancient life come round and assail me
Now the hell is within sight
This is where it ends
This is where I quit
Now the hell is within sight
Mind-blowing
Scenes from my memories unveiled
Mind-blowing
Evanescent changing shapes
I want to walk away
And leave this world behind me
I slowly fade away
And turn my back on this life
Resignation
What a beautiful word to pronounce
Aloud and hushed voice
You who can hear me
Screaming out
November the first
What a beautiful day to renounce
Abandon all hope
You who enter here
In the book of Eliot
Mind-blowing
Scenes from my memories unveiled
Mind-blowing
Evanescent changing shapes
I want to walk away
And leave this world behind me
I slowly fade away
And turn my back on this life
Standing in front of hell’s door
I beg you
Please forgive me
Now the end is within sight
This where it ends
This where I quit
