KATATONIA
"Dead Letters"
(Nystrom)

[Intro:]
Vexation, internal void
My dreams are getting darker and darker

Dim my lights, time is frail
You shut my mind, but oh well
Trapped and choked, erased my trail
Split the chest, my heart couldn't feel more pale

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
Only once could I see clear
Vexation, internal void
My dreams are getting darker and darker
And darker

[Chorus:]
This life before me
Its blood runs so still
The call of the bird
The song that makes the hours go

[Bridge:]
The change inactive
Dead letters form these words

Dim my lights one by one
The sordid pale, broken run
Confined in escape on burnt grass
Below the crest, lier in wait for the ending

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Only once could I see clear
My dreams are getting darker and darker
And darker

[Chorus:]
This life before me
Its blood runs so still
The call of the bird
Songs that make the hours go
