INSOMNIUM – Godforsaken feat. Johanna Kurkela

Where is the light and the reason? Where is the mercy of God? Have we been cast to damnation? Have we been banished to dark? They say that the world freezes over They say that The Head Wolf has come Driving his forces to battle Driving his forces to war They await in the twilight They await in the shades They will come for the sinners They will come for our souls Chained in the cellar of vicar Chained by the shackles of Christ A maiden they accuse of witchcraft A maiden they blame for the kills I ask her to place her trust on me I bid her to open her heart For I’ll find the light that has flamed out For I’ll seek the truth in the night I wander in eternal darkness I wander on forsaken paths I seek for the light that has flamed out I seek for the truth in the night She confides to me; there is something inside Deep in her flesh there’s a wound Bullet of lead, caught in her flank Aching there with every move I confide to her; there is craft that I know I could try to pull it away She looks into me with glistening eyes Lines on her brow disappear If hope, once dead, now awakes If hope, once gone, is reborn Deep in this forgotten realm Deep in the shadows that reign Far from the grace of the true God Far from the light of the Christ I wander in eternal darkness I wander on forsaken paths I seek for the light that has flamed out I seek for the truth in the night
